Go Wildcats - indeed!
Going into the bottom of the 6th: Lk Highlands up 8-0. Pittman with HR and 5 RBI.
GO WILDCATS....... 
That kid can play! Dad0406 -- remind me where Fielding will play next year.
Congratulations to Brent Powers for a CG one-hitter in a 8-0 win! 
Wildcats move on to the final four. Anybody notice Midland bow out last night without much fan fare?
DBAT vs. Florida Bombers at 6:15 CST.

Brent Powers with complete game for the Wildcats.
If I read the bracket correctly, they will draw to face either Arizona Firebirds or winner of DBat/Fla Bombers.....I think

Yeah....broke my heart!
Imagine handling the return travel for that team! Gotta get players from Farmington to Kentucky, California, Texas, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Michigan and Florida. Oh yeah, and Ohio too!
If DBAT beats the Bombers, the Wildcats will take on the Firebirds -- a result of natural pairings. If the Bombers win, then Trombly will have played the 3 remaining teams, so the Thursday games should be set by drawing times. The Bombers and DBAT have not had byes -- key if there are 3 teams with one loss going into Round 6. Gotta LOVE the AABC bracket rules! 
All this assuming that the bracket is correct on cmws.org!

The Lone Star is flying proud with the continued performance of these two power-houses!
For those of you that were listening....Rusty Hill (Wildcats) called me about 15 minutes after the game and I gave him a hard time for not mentioning DBAT among the final "outstanding" teams in their way during the post-game interview (all in fun). He said he realized it as soon as he'd said it.
Rusty also said that people there can't believe that two teams are in the final five from the same city much less the same league. Said it surprises them even more when he tells them neither team finished in the top two of that league. Our Dallas boys are doing a great job representing our baseball community and I'm very proud of everyone involved with both teams.
Best of luck tonight to DBAT and tomorrow to Wildcats!

Wildcats played the best game of their season today with the help from Brent Powers and Fielding Pittman. Throw in Kel Presley starting it off with a 400ft. BOMB! Brent threw 63 pitches to send home South Troy who eliminated Midland Redskins last nite. Brent had mono early in the season and is back healthy.....and it showed today. Fielding...you can call him our team captain and put on a display today equal to none! Fielding will be attending Howard in Big Spring this fall.
This is a great experience with Dbat and Kats parents supporting one another. Dbat parents where in full force today helping the Kats pull through. Wildcats will be there to support Dbats.
Now its time to go enjoy a little tailgaiting before the next show at 5:15.

Oh, to be in Farmington New Mexico! GO KATS AND BATS!
DBAT off to a 5-0 lead in the first....great to be able to watch!
Roll on DBAT and LH Wildcats...
Nice to see the two from the league doing so well against top of the line competition out there...
Keep up the outstanding work!

Great run DBAT all the way from the MGMT to the coaches, parents, and of course the players....
and to think they are young enough to do it again next year....

FWC that brings up a good question. Will the 17U team stick together? I know historically the Tigers struggle keeping 18U teams. I wasn't sure about DBAT, or the Mustangs.
Dtiger, we'll be there to challenge you next season 
I wouldn't want it any other way. Can you umpire some games for us? You seem to bring out the best in us :/.
What an awesome achievement to get this far and to be a younger team.
We're proud of you!
We're proud of you!
**** I'm bad with the faces.
Ditiger I have not experienced it but I have heard from several coaches that the summer after the senior year could potentially be a challenge for any organization. Most players have signed or might get drafted. But we will keep building our success this summer and hopefully challenge for Farmington again next summer.
I don't like umpiring your games because your pitchers work too slow for me.

GAH your telling me... I can't remember who started that game, but I remember the kid who came in relief, took forever and couldn't throw a strike--- no dissing, simply stating the facts. Of course, I'm sure you weren't giving him any corners. 
I know what you mean about the signings, your 18U team this year would've been a pro team basically if it hadn't been for signings.

Congrats to DBat 17's, a team that has given my son's teams fits thru the years

Clemente21 -- I think your previous post represents a refreshing approach to summer baseball. I do not have a problem with teams that choose to follow a different strategy, which might include a few more victories, but I agree that these kids should be having FUN while developing in the summer. Some have "criticized" (for lack of a better word) the Wildcats for appearing to be less competitive since claiming their Farmington birth...and some wonder if they will be able to turn it back on in a few weeks --- but no one questions their strength ---> the TEAM concept.
I'm sure the guys will have great fun in NM, regardless of the outcome.
