2010 Outlaws Baseball Tournament #9 Day #1

With Sharon and I scrambling to get everything ready for the fall dinner party, the Outlaws played in a playutrip tournament at Hal Bartholomew Sports Park on Saturday. I hate it when Jack plays and I am not at the games. In the first game, the Outlaws played the Sacramento Blue Devils.

At the plate batting fourth, Jack was 1 for 3 with a run scored and a strike-out. In his first at-bat, Jack hit a 2 and 0 pitch to the left side and was thrown out at first by the third baseman. He singled down the third base line in his second plate appearance. Jack went to second on Josh's base on balls, to third when Breyton walked and scored on Jordan's single. Jack struck out looking on a 2 and 2 pitch in his third at-bat.

In the field, Jack played five innings at third base. In one of those odd games, he never had a ball hit to him.

With the score tied 5 to 5 in the bottom of the fifth and time expiring, Greysen had a game winning single to score Josh. The Outlaws won the game by the score of 6 to 5.

In the second game of the day, the Outlaws played the Defenders.

At the plate batting fifth, Jack was 1 for 3 with a strike-out and reached base on an error. In his first at-bat, Jack struck out swinging on a 1 and 2 pitch. He pushed one to the right side for a single in his second plate appearance. Jack ended the inning at first when Breyton was doubled off second on Jordan's line drive out. Jack reached base on an error by the right fielder in his third at-bat. With two out, Jordan doubled to right field. Waved around third by Scott, Jack tried to score from first base and was thrown out at the plate.

In the field, Jack played three innings in centerfield and three innings at first. He had one put-out. In the bottom of the sixth, Jack fielded a grounder to the right side and made an unassisted put-out.

With the Outlaws leading by the score of 3 to 1 in the bottom of the sixth, the Defenders first batter reached base on an error. The Defenders ended up scoring 3 runs to win the game by the score of 4 to 3.

The Outlaws ended the day seeded fourth out of the seven teams. They play 8:00 a.m. on Sunday morning against the Davis Demons.

After the games, most of the team went to Red Robin for dinner; Jack had a great time!
