MOSQUITO REP
June 18
First tournament win of the season. What a great Father's Day gift !
| | The tournament had 8 teams competing in
2 divisions. In round robin play Phoenix mercied both Brantford and the Mississauga North Bengals and beat host team, Whitby,
12-5. The team played near flawless defense and was batting well in all games. Winning all three round robin games declared
them division winners.
The tournament hosted a skills competition on Saturday. 6 of
the 8 teams participated in the competion. The first competion was the relay. The Phoenix relay team consisted of Natan, Geoffrey,
Daniel and Tyler. They tied for first with Whitby resulting in a second race. This race also resulted in a tie forcing a third
race. The third race put Whitby in first and Richmond Hill in second place. The next competition was the King of Swat. Richmond
Hill was victorious in this competition with Nicholas hitting 4 out of 5 homeruns. Lastly, an All-Star team was nominated
and Geoffrey represented Richmond Hill. Congrats to all that competed in these competions and to those players that helped
cheer on their teammates to victory!
The semi-finals saw Phoenix facing North Toronto. Phoenix
had never played this team before and did not know what to expect. The boys defense again was very strong and they came out
swinging. They slowly worked up a lead and were looking to mercy North Toronto in the fifth but they couldn't get the mercy
run. The game went right to 7 innings and ended in a 10-1 win. Richmond Hill advances to the finals.
In the finals they met the host team, Whitby Chiefs. This team was very determined and held Phoenix to a 3-3 tie until
the third. Phoenix kept battling, scoring runs to go ahead of Whitby. In the sixth inning the team finished off Whitby by
scoring 7 runs. Whitby came up to bat one last time but with 2 strike outs and a routine 6-3 putout they failed to narrow
the lead. The result was a mercy in the 6th inning.
All of the boys contributed greatly to
the success this weekend. They should all be proud of being a part of such a great team. Congrats boys!
Keep up the great work!
