Drew’s Strike Zone Bulldogs team participated in their 1st Kid-Pitch baseball tourney (Oct 1-2, 2016).  It’s been a bit of a rough Fall season for them due to weather.  Their team decided not to sign up for Fall league baseball and do weekly scrimmages with another Strike Zone team instead.  Well this sounded like a great idea at the time, however, the weather prevented us from playing many of the scrimmages.  It was always a torrential downpour on the days we were scheduled to scrimmage.  Therefore, we didn’t get a lot of game experience and had to pull out of the other tournament we were supposed to play in this Fall.  However, we did manage to compete in The Bitter End tourney at 3and2 and they did great!  They took home a 2nd place trophy and some great experience with hitting against a live pitcher and learning the techniques of pitching.  They tried their very best and had a pretty amazing comeback effort in their championship game but ended up short a few runs 17-13.  Part of that comeback effort included Drew blowing around the bases against the coaches direction and making it safe at home (barely).  This kid wanted to keep playing and he was going to do that one way or the other.  The coach was almost in tears he was laughing so hard.  I would do anything to have that on video!   Love your drive to win Drew.  Never give up buddy.

and look….you have teeth this season!!  🙂
