13U MAJORS CHAMPIONS!

Congratualeions to the 13U Gold team!.  We absolutely dominated over the weekend.  The boys came ready to play and left a number of teams in their wake.  The team went undefeated but yet were seeded #3.  They had to play the top 2 seeds above them and they rose to the challenge.  In the first game they faced a very LARGE Angels team with quality pitching.  Their last pitcher actually was working on his GOATEE.  No lie!!!!!
The hitters made sure that we are afraid of no pitcher, (especially with goatees) as we put up a 9 spot on them. (our LOWEST run total for the tournament). 
In the championship game, Riley Kirke kept us close with some quality pitching, waiting for our guns to break loose.  Heading into the 4th we were down 3-0 and then the boys opened up a can....
The big blow came as JJ Hessel wiped out their lead with a 3 run BOMB to the opposite field and over the bullpen in Fenway.  We never looked back after that, scoring 3 and 5 runs over the next 2 innings to beat the Buzztails 13-3.  What a great way to celebrate Mother's Day.  Nick Grossman came in late in the game and shut down any hopes that the Buzztails might have had.  Nick and Riley shared the Cy Young award and Nick also took home the MVP for this tournament!  Way to go Nick.   Next up.... Flagstaff!
