December 26 Game

Before we get to today's game, I just received the score sheets from Tuesday's late game so let me start with the game between Team DeLoach and Team Tutrani. What started out as a great game with both teams scoring three runs in the first. Unfortunately for Team Tutrani that was as close as they were to get.. Team Deloach won six of the next eight innings, putting up  four or more runs in four innings along the way. By the eighth inning Team DeLoach was up 24 to 12. With their backs to the wall, Team Tutrani needed a miracle to pull out the victory. Alas, it was not to be as a double play shut them down and they failed to score. Final Count was Team DeLoach 24 and Team Tutrani 12.

We had a very exciting three team game on field B. The defenses were aided by having three American league shortstops in the line up. Needless to say, it was hard to get one past that side of the infield. Team Hill found it particularly difficult as they were shut down with no runs in the second through the fourth innings. They did put up eight runs in the sixth and seventh innings to make it respectable. Team DeLoach did not  suffer the same fate, as they scored multiple in six of the seven innings and put up a total of 22 runs for the game.  Team Rounds fell behind early but scored in every inning to keep it close..Their big inning was the sixth when they scored six runs to close within three. So going into the last inning they found themselves chasing eight runs. In the bottom of the inning they did manage to put up four but it was not enough. Final score: Team DeLoach 23, Team Rounds 19, and Team Hill 12.
