The Legend Begins

The 12u Pioneer Legends Tournament team had its first tournament games this morning. Sam pitched the first four innings, striking out 7 and only allowing 2 runs. Both boys were getting the bat on the ball but Sam only reached first once with a single (1-3) and Dylan was thrown out twice and struck out once (0-3). The pitchers are better in tournament ball but they were just a little off in the hitting department. The relief pitchers for the legends struggled and ended up surrendering 4 runs for a 6-5 loss.

The second game of the day was a disaster. I stopped counting errors at around 8. The pitching was rough and hitting was anemic. Dylan sat the first couple inning and struck out while Sam went 1-2 but got picked off at first. They ended up losing 14-3 to a pretty mediocre team. We have anywhere between 1 and 3 games tomorrow. I hope they get their mojo back and get in the win column.
