Last weekend, we spent our days at the ballpark.  Saturday’s game was a surprise, considering they were calling for rain all day long.  We woke to a cold dreary day, but no rain.  So off we went at 8:30.

It was a close game against the Legends.  One kid in particular did all of the damage: grand slam and two crushing home runs.  With the game 6-4, they called Z up to pitch.  Monmy’s nerves were a mess.  The boy calmly took the mound and struck out two of the three.  Whew.  Game 1, a win

Game 2 was also a thriller.   We beat the Senators 13-0.   No pitching for Z with the game in hand, but the boy went 2-3

Sunday brought a new day, that was bright, sunny and hot.  With the 1st game, we beat the Rams in another close one 6-4.  Again, they brought in Z to close it.  He struggled his way to a strike out and 2 walks…but made an awesome play in the field to help himself

For the Tourney final, we played the other All Out Team.  This is a team that we’ve never lost…but the gap is closing fast..and mommy was worried about the law of averages coming at us…you can’t win forever.

This game was another nail biter.   Z was 3-4 with his hitting and with the game close, 7-4, they brought Z in to close it.  First batter was a walk, ugh.  But he settled in to get the last two outs.  The boy is built for these moments.

With the victory, we became Tourney Champs.  This is a fun team to watch.  I love watching the hard work pay off…and all of the fun they have doing it
