Palomino Zone Tournament

Glad you won.
Sorry Daniel did not get his no-hitter.
But I'm not convinced that the umps didn't make the correct call. If they were 10 year olds yes, but at this age?

Keep up the good work and keep your sights on the World Series.

The ball was clearly a catch, and Jason held up his glove so the umps could see it. While the rest of the players were on the field waiting for the injured players to be helped off, the home plate umpire, who did not make any call, said he "heard it bounce", but he did not see it bounce. He must have superman hearing to "hear" it from homeplate. The field umpire said he would have called it a catch, the game would have been over; but it wasn't his call and there was no conference between them to discuss it.

It was a great game to watch. Hudson didn't have his best stuff but the fielding was A+++ behind him- no errors and spectacular plays by Zach Woods in right field (diving catch) and Jake McAloose (stopped a liner down 3rd base line), and Jason Taylor in center. The last out was made at the plate after Dory Fields threw to relay man Alex Owen, who threw to a waiting Justin Neumann for the out at the plate.

Lynnhaven plays Pittsburg tomorrow, 8/1, at 1:00pm (time change due to a lot of rain over the weekend and more forecast for tomorrow). Sean Ray will be the starter.

Good luck to you all, will you pick up somebody since he will be out?

LYNNHAVEN 7
Greensboro 6

LYNNHAVEN IS WORLD SERIES BOUND!

Zach Woods pitched a great game, gave up 1 run; the relievers were brought in in the 6th inning with the score 7-1 to get some work, and it almost backfired. Many walks and hits later; Daniel Hudson was brought in to close the game.

The team boards the plane at 6:00am tomorrow morning for Puerto Rico.

BRING IT HOME, BOYS!!

congratulations guyz!!!!!!!! we know you will do the beach, and the great commonwealth of Va. proud!!!!!!!!

good luck guys and bring home the trophy.

Congratulations to all the players representing Virginia in Puerto Rico----what an honor! Is there anyone on the web that will be able to give us an update? Also---the paper should do an article on these boys----are they getting any press besides the line score in the sports page?

Can we get some more information on who is on this team---get bits of information but would like to know who what kids from what beach teams are playing? Know most of the pitchers---who else is playing in the field?

Hope this names them all - sincerest apologies if I leave someone out or misstate!!

We have contacted the paper and the local news channels to try and get some coverage; but you know how they are with local baseball. If it was f+@#ball it would be a different story! I think we are lucky getting the line score in!
