Game #3 and Game #4 results

Quick post at the end of a busy day.

Game #3 -  Pirates beat up on the Twins, final score 18 to 5.  Not the same Twins team that won the 2016 FCCS crown, as many of the players had scheduling conflicts.  We got up on top of the Twins, by scoring 12 runs in the 1st inning.

Game #4 -  Pirates beat the Yankees 1 Team, final score 9 to 2.  At the conclusion of the day, the Pirates are the only team undefeated, with a 4 wins 0 loss record.  We are the number one seed of the tournament.

Tonight we ate dinner at Charley's Steak House, next to the hotel.  Great atmosphere, food was excellent.  Now it is time to get some much needed rest.  Tomorrow is winner take all.  No margin for error, win or you are out.  We need two more wins, tomorrow is another day.  Everything to this point is history.

Won an additional Stargell Star for completing an outfield double play.  The third hitter, a real stud, hit a short fly to right field.  After catching the fly ball, the runner on third base attempted to score, I threw a one hop to Wardo, who put the tag on the runner.  End of the inning.  I then lead off the bottom of the inning with a single to the right side of the infield.  After a throwing error, I ended up on 2nd base.

A few photos from today.

Outfielder sunglasses, a must for Spanky, miss a fly ball - don't come back to the dugout!

Paul Bazzano, had a monster game - with big hits

Rob Carver, with the awesome tatoo.  Miller should have told me to wear a hat, hair is out of control.

(3) more Stargell Stars, nice addition to the hat.
