Rumor has it that the Shortstop from Wills Park hit eleven (11) homeruns this weekend in the triple crown state tourney. Can anyone confirm or deny this. thats incredible.. Also congratulations to the Yard dogs for winning the 11open Red Swain Tourney down in Stockbridge.. Go Dawgs
He had two against JCS. I think they found the first one, but have hired a local search and resue company to try and locate the 2nd one. JCS's pitcher through a very low (barely above the ankle)off the plate about 4" and he got around on it like he determined to get the tying runs in.
I personally saw 3 in 2 games on Saturday. The first one made the one against JCS look like routine pop up. It cleared the fence, the hill and the entire first row of cars! That's no joke.
That JCS pitcher had been hit on the shin by a line drive 2-3 batters earlier and toughed it out limping the rest of the time. That ball was low, inside and it looked line a tee shot sailing out.
Thats about 9 HRs more than he should have had. Old argument-intentionally walk the kid or "let the 10 year olds play"? I say if you know how big a threat he is, and he likes those low and outside pitches, then pitch him a ball and a half inside at the shoulders and walk him.
