What a weekend! Our team went undefeated in the End-of-Season tournament, winning three games via the mercy-rule (any team that leads by 10 or more points after 5 innings is declared the winner).
The final championship game was a real nail-biter. The lead changed hands a couple times, and our defense kept us in it the whole way. We finally pulled away in the top of the seventh with an eight point lead. They scored 3 more runs in the bottom of the seventh, but we ended the threat with a game-ending double play and winning it all, 23-18.
Our offense was amazing. Everyone was on top of their game at the plate. We worked the count, and got the hits we needed to keep our rallies going. I love this team!
To make the weekend even more magical, we had our very own Elvis siting!
We encountered The King at (the appropriately named) Legends Sports Bar after our games on Saturday. He was kind enough to pose for a picture, and chatted with us for a few minutes. He’s part of a tribute band called Elvis and the Rustabouts, and judging by the music on their website, he’s pretty darn good. In addition, his name really is Elvis. He was a very nice guy, and I’ll bet he puts on a great show.
A softball championship, and an audience with The King. That was my weekend. How was yours?
