American League Update

On Thursday, June 29th, the Winter Haven Travel team traveled over to Solivita for an exhilarating three-game tournament and a mouthwatering BBQ. The scorching heat made the day even more challenging.
Equipped with bats, balls, and wings, we were prepared for the battles ahead. Our first game was against the formidable Solivita Red, White, and Blue Team. Solivita wasted no time and swiftly scored five runs. By the fourth inning, the score stood at Solivita 12 runs and Winter Haven 5 runs. Undeterred by the blistering weather, we fought back relentlessly. As the sixth inning concluded, Winter Haven had caught up, with a score of 12 runs to Solivita's 16 runs. In the top of the seventh inning, we unleashed our full potential, scoring an impressive eight runs, ultimately securing a victorious score of 20 to 16. Exhausted but triumphant, we celebrated our hard-fought win.
However, our joy was short-lived as we faced the Kissimmee team next. Fatigued from the previous game, Winter Haven struggled to find their rhythm, managing only four hits throughout the entire game and failing to score a single run. The heat had taken its toll, and we suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 16 to zero.
On a brighter note, the BBQ that followed was nothing short of spectacular. We indulged in a delectable feast of wings, ribs, hot dogs, and hamburgers. It was a soirée to remember, filled with laughter and camaraderie.
Next week, we eagerly anticipate our rematch against Solivita, as Diamond Plex will be closed for the entire week.

Happy Fourth of July.
