Our own proofer Kristine Tofte is always a shiner – like a diamond – but that description became doubly appropriate when, during the Chronicle's Alternative Softball League season closer against KOOP, she caught a scorcher thrown to home … with her face. Ever the good sport, Tofte came to work the next day with a Technicolor eye, extensive photo documentation of the shifting shades of her face, and yes, a winning smile.
