Tournament Championship

Posted by Dale Redick on Jul 14 2003 at 05:00PM PDT
We were playing th Dominators for the championship. The runs were going to be few, we had Jessica pithing for us and they had a lefty that was pretty good. First two inning went by pretty quick and then in the 3rd inning the Dominators got their 1st two batters on, then Jessica struck out the next two. With two outs runners on first and second the next batter dribbles one down 1st base line, Jessica picked it up and it looked like she tagged her, the home plate umpire put his hand up like an out and the girls thought that was the 3rd out. The runner from 2nd had run home and then the home plate umpire said he did not see if Jessica tagged the runner so he asked the field umpire who said he did not see it so they called the runner safe. When I asked about the run that scored the umpire said the ball was not dead so it counted. Then the game went back to a pitchers dual until the 5th inning when the Dominators pushed across two runs with some sloppy fielding. We tried to make a comeback and scored 1 run in the bottom of the 5th and had a couple more runners on base when we made the last out. The girls played great, we just got up against a hot pitcher and they can make all the difference. We got 2nd place medals for the great job we did this weekend.
