- The energy was amazing for the entire game. The Grizzlies were in the game for every pitch like never before.
- We again played 6 innings and I believe we got 3 outs in every one of them. It is difficult to come up with a Grizzlies player that didn't have a hand in getting at least one out over the course of the game. An incredible defensive effort!
- Congrats to our 3 MVPs! Blake had 3 very solid singles, was extrememly active playing the pitcher's area, and was alert in the outfield both fielding and backing up plays. Ethan played a head's up 3rd base getting 2 unassisted force outs at his base and was getting his bat on the ball. Finally, JD played a flawless 1st base and connected on some very solid hits, including a double. Way to go guys!
- Kyle and JD both had impressive doubles; Kyle drove the ball into left center field and JD laced a hard hit ball down the 3rd base line.
- Jamison was an animal in his first time playing 2nd base, contributing 3 force outs at his base and always remembered his assignments.
- Kyle and JD hooked up for several outs. Kyle pounced on everything in the pitcher's area and made some great throws and JD was a human vaccuum, even digging some balls out of the dirt.
- Spencer cleanly fielded a ball at shortstop and beat the lead runner to 2nd base for the out.
- Zack, playing 2nd Base, deftly moved to his right to field a hard hit grounder up the middle and got yet another force out at 2nd base.
- Toby had a couple of his hardest hits all year and was down and ready on every pitch.
- The entire team hit very well, but I have to point out Brad, Jamison and Kyle who were our 3 players that went FIVE for FIVE at the plate. Wow!
At our post game meeting, the players all committed to show that same energy in our last 2 games and finish the season strong. I'm looking forward to seeing it!
