What a wonderful day of baseball on Sunday. The 13U team kept up their good play from Saturday and repeated it on Sunday. I sat in amazment witnessing some of the best web gems any of my teams have ever had. It was truly breath taking. Aiden and Gage made tremendous sliding and diving plays to take away certain hits, Tommy was a man on a mission at SS and Alex was a vacuum at first base, twice saving games with huge digs at first. There were so many great plays by all, it was a sight to behold!
It was such a great weekend for so many players, there was a 3 way MVP with Joey Faudskar, JJ Hessel and Alex Segal taking home the honors. Joey also packed a CyYoung away over the weekend totaling 9 IP and only 2 runs. JJ hit a monsterous home run to left reminescent of 14U Spin Doctor David Christensen's feat.
It was a total team effort as all contributed in the wins. On Saturday, Casey Cooper laid down 2 huge bunts bringing in a valuable run in a tight contest. We had 3 safety squeezes executed to perfection with all players safe over the weeekend.
I gave out over 30 helmet stickers which is a SDB record. You know I don't just give those out....you earn them!
Great weekend overall. All phases of the game were clicking: Great pitching, Defense, hitting and baserunning. With those combinations we brought home the hardware.
Congratulations boys, you earned it!
