Astros win KC Fall Championship

Posted by Ken St.Aubin on Nov 20 2002 at 04:00PM PST
The Astros won a thrilling game vs the Marlins 4 - 3 in the fall season championship. An outstanding pitching duel between Karl Pringle of the Astros and Daniel Rothenberg for the 1st 4 innings and an excellent effort by Garrett Hester for the final 3 inninngs paced the way. Garrett struck out the last 2 batters with the tieing run at 2nd base to preserve the victory. In addition to Karl's pitching he also got on base each time to score 3 of the 4 Astros runs. Numerous defensive plays by all at critical spots in the game in both the infield and great running catches in the outfield paved the way for a total team effort. the Astros finally caught the Marlins in this last game as both teams finished with an overall record of 14 - 4 - 1, but the Astros not only won the Championship game, but beat the Marlins 3 of 4 times in the series. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE PLAYERS AND SUPPORTING PARENTS for making this a successful season to remember. Last event of the year is Saturday at 1:00pm at the KC Field for a parents vs kids baseball game and barbecue lunch.
