 April 6, Giants (4-0) vs Yankees (4-0)  

This was the battle of the unbeaten's.  Who would prevail?  The Yankees who lead the league in runs with 28 ... or the Giants who lead the league in defense only giving up TWO  for the season??  Which was going to break ... YANKEES "O" or GIANTS "D"???

Looks like Easter Break took it's toll for the G's offense early as only Caden, Colin and Ben got hits first time through the lineup ... but there are two great things in the world ... Triple Scoop Ice Cream Cones AND a Triple By a Giant, which Caden blasted to get the 2nd inning going.  Then Ben stepped up and hit a monster Double scoring Cade

But that was only the sparkler to the TNT fireworks ready to go off in the 4th ... with two outs and nobody on, Tyler decided enough was enough and hit a double to center ... Mitchell and Caden followed with strong singles, and Aidan found a creative way of getting on base by hitting the ball AND the catchers glove ... so now with bases loaded and two outs, our RBI master listened to Coach Tony as he relayed last minute wisdom, and on a full count, Switzer ANNIHILATED the baseball ... sending it over the CF and towards the Kaseberg Playground ... and giving him a GRAND SLAM!!!  And the hitting parade continued as Anthony, Ryan and Cameron also had base hits getting back into a groove. 

Defensively the Giants were on their "G" game .... chalking up six put outs and ZERO ERRORSColin fired three to 1B Caleb for outs, SS Tyler took the routine grounder for the out and 2B Dylan made a great defensive play scooping the hard hit grounder and throwing him out at 1B Tyler ... and finally ... to end the game ..... 2B Ben slid to his left and finished the contest by throwing a dart to 1B Aidan.

Our "Tough As Nails" award goes to Tyler .... while playing SS he approached the dugout mid-inning and dropped his tooth into Coach Drew's hand .... and then ran back to position ... SAY WHAT????   

Game Ball Winner:  I didn't even have to say it .... as it was unanimous by the coaches, teammates and parents on who was taking this ball home.  Batting 2-2 with an RBI double and a 4-run Grand Slam ... and making the final play to seal the deal ... no doubt about it this one went to MR. BEN SWITZER!!!
