 American League update

Today, members of the American League traveled to Solivita for a highly anticipated two-game matchup. Donning our sleek new blue shirts, we were ready to showcase our skills, while our formidable opponents, Solivita, sported their classic white and green attire.

In the first game, both teams came out swinging, resulting in an impressive display of offense with each side scoring four runs in the opening inning. The game quickly turned into a captivating back-and-forth scoring frenzy. As the seventh inning drew to a close, the scoreboard displayed a nail-biting score of 19 to 18. However, Solivita managed to secure a walk off hit, ultimately clinching a heart-stopping victory with a final score of 19-20.

Undeterred by the previous loss, we entered the second game with unwavering determination. Our bats came alive, allowing us to establish a commanding fourteen to six lead by the end of the fifth inning. Solivita, however, refused to surrender, mounting a valiant comeback by scoring five runs in the sixth inning and an additional four in the seventh. Despite their relentless efforts, we managed to hold our ground and emerged triumphant with a final score of 15-16.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Solivita for graciously hosting us and providing an exceptional venue for our exhilarating games. With our heads held high, we eagerly anticipate our next encounter in two weeks' time, where we will once again showcase our skills and engage in a battle of athleticism and sportsmanship.
