Our O-Zone All Stars played well through their Sub-District; defeating opponents by an overall run total of 79-8 in 5 games. Game 1 of the District 5 O-Zone Championship Series saw a different outcome. Our boys traveled to Chapel Park in Bishopville and were only able to scratch out two hits. Interestingly, both of those scratches were deep cuts; Noah Hudson and Cam Cannarella each hit solo homers. Those two runs accounted for the team's offensive output in a 3-2 loss.
On Wednesday, George Hatchell of Byerly Park would not deny the two teams the opportunity to play. George worked tirelessly right up to the 7:30 start time to have the field prepped and ready. A late afternoon rainstorm nearly forced Game 2 to be postponed. Thanks for your efforts, George. We literally could not have played without you.
Game 2 saw more fireworks from the National bats (and also some off in the distance from some tardy Fourth celebrants). Cam Cannarella went deep twice and Grayson Wint added another monster blast as the Good Guys walked away with an 11-2 victory. Seth Pittington and Harrison Moore combined efforts on the mound to force Game 3.
In addition to winning the game, our guys picked up another victory: the coin toss to host Game 3.
Game 3 will be played at 7pm on Thursday (July 7) at Byerly Park.
Go National!
