 American League update 8/1/24

The Winter Haven travel team teamed up with the Kissimmee team to take on Solivita in two intense games. The first game was an absolute nail-biter, with both teams going head to head. Winter Haven took the victory with a final score of 24-14, thanks to some incredible performances, including two home runs from Mike Vaccaro, two from Frank of Kissimmee, and a home run from Rob Milron.

In the second game, the excitement continued to build as the score was tied 10-10 at the fifth inning. Winter Haven seemed poised for victory after adding five more runs, but at the top of the seventh, Solivita unleashed an amazing comeback, scoring ten runs and securing a 20-17 win. It was an exhilarating match with outstanding home runs from Lou Guzman and Rob Milron.

These games were just a taste of the thrilling matchups to come. Stay tuned for more action in September!

A 3-team game today with managers Robert Spitaleri, Don Witmer and Don Ouding.  Again, it started out slow with the score after 4 innings of 4-6-4 in favor of the Witmer team. Don never relinquished that lead although Ouding did tie it up at 9 in the 5th inning but the final ended Witmer 15, Ouding 11 and Spitaleri 9.  

Some very good defensive plays again to help keep the scores low.

It was a very tight game all the way thru 7 innings. After 4 innings the score was 5-6-6 and ended up just as close with Ouding coming out on top after 7 innings 13-11-11.

There were lots of good hitters and some very good fielding to account for the low score.
