11u Blaze holds off Lancaster Black to finish regular season 8-0!

The boys battled hard against a tough Lancaster Depew team and finished the regular Clarence Sunday League season with a 8-0 record, guaranteeing at least a tie for first place. It was a hot day in Westwood Park, but the fundamentally sound Blaze manufactured runs at the end and were able to outlast their opponents. With already one out, the leadoff and second hitters did their job and got on base in the sixth, with the score close at 6-5. Rob bunted in Mike to go ahead by two, before the Lancaster pitching shut us down. In the sixth, despite some great pitching, the opponent surged back with a run and had two on base when Luis made a spectacular diving catch in short center field to end the game, winning 7-6. What a great way to spend Father's Day! The Blaze look forward to the upcoming tournament season and league playoffs.
