Chili Peppers

In our second tournament on June 23-24th we took on some tough teams. Our first game was against the Hot Stix. Once again we fell behind and had to catch up. After taking the lead we had a bad inning and lost 13-16. The second game we took it out on Steller Realty by winning 14-2, scoring 7 runs in the only two innings we got to bat in. After an afternoon break we took on the BROC Angels and we took an early lead and then held on for a 16-13 victory. In the fourth game of the day we played our best game and beat the Falcons 19-0 only letting them have 5 girls on base. A 3-1 record gave us the 2 seed for the tournament. The first game was a forfeit 7-0 because the other team did not show. We then took on the 1 seed in the other pool, the Wild Bunch. Once again we gave up 7 runs in the first and had to fight back. We could not get enough runs and lost 7-15. This sent us into the 3rd place game where we had to play the Hot Stix once more. This time we jumped to a quick lead but then the Hot Stix came back to tye it 12-12 after 5 innings. We went to the international tie breaker and they scored 3 runs in their 1/2 inning. We had to score 3 to tie or 4 to win. We scored 3 runs and with one out and runners on 1st and 3rd Sydney came up and got a hit to score Morgan with the game winning run. Great job girls on another fun weekend against some tough teams.
