Friday's Games

Just a quick post about friday's games -- it was an interesting day indeed.

The weather was great today for baseball -- it alittle chilly to start but warmed up nicely by 10am when first pitch arrived.

We scored an early run in the 1st to take a 1-0 lead - we had Hess on the mound and his first inning was flawless.  The 2nd inning got a little interesting as they loaded the bases with zero outs -- he worked out that major jam by getting a couple strike outs (thank you umpire with a huge a strike zone) and we head to the bot of 5th with the same score -- we get 2 more that inning and stake out to a 3-0 lead.  Top of the 6th -- they get bases loaded and 2 outs -- the big lumberjack comes up to the plate -- Hess makes a great pitch to induce a weak popout to the 2nd baseman and we head to the 7th where Hess took care of business and finished out the win -- 3-0 victory for the Weapons of Destruction over the 3 Amigos.

In other action -- 2 of the other games were fantastic -- Warriors were down 3-0 going into the 6th inning against the Ditch Cougars and tied it up at 3-3, the game continues into extra innings -- in the bot of the 8th a walk off bases loaded single ended the game 4-3 -- wow!  Shakers beats the Oreo's 9-4 in the other "top" division game -- Wins & Saves advances with a 5-2 victory over the Ball Barians.

So championship Saturday shapes out to be:

#5 Weapons vs #6 Wins & Saves
9:45 AM game at Hammond Stadium

#1 Warriors vs. #2 Shake it Up
12:15 PM game at Hammond Stadium
