The Furious Baseball Midgets Meet their Match and Then Some!

Our U9 Mavericks played the Springfield Jr. Blue Devils and wow, what a game.  I have to say that the best team on that day won.  The Jr. Devils beat us 11-7

The coach called a last minute practice the day before last night's game.  This is also one of the more intense weeks this season. The kids are playing games every other day.

So, that means that the kids were on their 3rd straight day of baseball.  They're also still in school.  They looked a little listless during the game, and I think it's because they were a little worn out.  They're only 9 years old, after all.

Based on scanning records and some informal scouting reports (parents who have seen the games), I think we just played two of our toughest opponents in our first two games.

The kids have some easier opponents coming up. Getting a few more Ws should really improve their spirits.

We play Springfield again before the season ends. We can beat them, but last night was their night.
