Game 2, Win 2

Making contact

Yesterday was our 2nd game in the Shrewsbury Tournament. We were playing Dudley. They're a good team because they beat Leicester 15-1. Since we were home, we got to field first. I was catching. The first batter struck out. The second guy walked. The third player struck out. The fourth guy flew out to shortstop. That was the end of the top of the 1st inning.

We were batting now. Louis hit a double. Daniel hit a double. Connor walked. Bases loaded. Aidan got up. He walked. Greg walked. Patrick struck out. I'm up with bases loaded. I hit not far over the 2nd baseman's head. He ran back, picked up the ball and threw Greg out at 2nd. They threw the ball home and I ran to 2nd. Two runs scored. We got 5 runs that inning.

I only got up to bat 2 times. The 2nd time up I hit it right behind the 2nd baseman's head and he made a good play and caught it.

The final score: Southborough - 11 Dudley - 3. Southborough wins! So far my summer batting average is .250 and I have 4 RBIs. Our team is off to a good start.

  1. Congrats on win #2!

    All your hits so far seem to be right over the 2nd baseman's head. It reminds me of someone on the Yankees who wears a 2 on his back. Everytime I see Derek Jeter hit, he seems to drop it over the 2nd baseman's head. Works for him and now it's working for you!

  2. Great play at first base Jeffery! 11-3 thats amazing I can't believe it, and a double is awesome I only got one double in my season of baseball! Great job and good luck at your next game.
