USSSA Spring Training, March 13/14


Both Saturday and Sunday's games were at Big League Dreams park in Gilbert.  First we played the Bulldogs. Felt like an easy win, Finest 8, Bulldogs 2.  The second game Saturday was against the Rattlers. Lots of mistakes cost us this one, Rattlers 3, Finest 2.

On Sunday, we played the Rattlers again but this time we looked good.  We win 7-3.  Championship game was against the winner of Aztecs vs Bulldogs.  We ate lunch watching the Aztecs and Bulldogs, hoping the Bulldogs could pull out a victory.  No they couldn't so we enter into the best game of the day. The Aztecs took an early lead. We chased 2 runs for a few innings. The Aztecs could taste the win. They got a bit cocky about. In the sixth inning, one Aztec player was heard to say "3 up, 3 down and the championship is ours". (in  young Obi Wan Kenobi voice: "Oh, I don't think so..."  Finest get fired up and slam in 4 runs to take a 3 run lead.  Then Finest take the field for defense one more time.  Who wanted it more?? Ha, ha silly. Finest shut them down and shut them up.  That's the most excited I have seen these boys in a long time.  Congratulations are in order because you worked hard and earned this win.  Great game!
