Blast Come Up One Win Short, and One Ball Shy of a Dozen.
The Mississippi Blast 16U Tournament Team came up one win shy of winning its first tournament of the season losing 5-1 to the Delta Diamonds. During the tournament run the "Girls of Black" set a tournament record with 11 homeruns. This broke the previous mark of 7 two seasons ago. After signing and giving away 11 game balls to various team members I thought we might have to perform CPR on Ms. Lynn. Good Job Girls!!! Hang in their Ms. Lynn!!
In pool play the blast defeated the Eclipse 18U 4-0 and the Ms Elite 6-2. Kris picked up her first win of the summer and Londen and Anna supplied all the runs needed on a solo shot and a 3 run shot. In the second pool game the Blast scored 4 in the last inning to take a victory over the Ms. Elite. Kate grabbed the victory on the mound.
In our first bracket game the Blast banged out 14 hits, 5 homeruns of which 3 were back-to-back-to-back. Hitting homeruns for the Blast were Londen, Kris, Audrey, Heater and ET. The Blast won going away 13-0 as Lauren picked up the win on a 1 hit shutout.
The next game was against the Eclipse 18U and what a game it was. ET slammed 2, 2 run homeruns and Heater hit a walk off solo shot to secure a 5-4 victory. Heather picked up her first victory as a member of the Blast.
The championship game saw the Blast fall behind 3-0 in the first and never recover. The only run scored was a solo shot by Ashton as the Delta Diamonds won going away 5-1.
Congratulation to the Delta Diamonds on their tournament victory!!!
