GA teams are a combined 23 - 7 after pool play.
- Storm (2-4) plays in first round today which you can watch on the game cam if you're not here.
- 6-4-3 (6-0) & Bandits (5-1) get byes until the 4th round.
- Scorpions (5-1) & Tigers (5-1) get byes until the 3rd round.
Nice job. |

Stinger, on the webcast, it looks like the fields have tall solid walls all the way around the fields, how can you watch the games?

| All fields have an 8' green plywood wall completely arround the fields. there are bull per style viewing areas down the right & left field lines. The fans are kept far from players and umpires. Being a spectator is not good -- unless you're interested in the first or third base coaches weggie. |

Nice job.
Bleachers are down the lines. Nothing behind the plate either. Parents /Fans can't 1) Come up or in to the dugout, or 2) Sit right behind the plate and coach the pitcher, batter, catcher or umpire.

There is a concrete area down each foul line that they put green plastic chairs you can sit in and you are behind a three foot wall. It is a great view, but you have to be ready to grab or duck a foul ball. To me it is a lot easier on the eyes not having to look through chain-link fences.
Early morning and during the afternoon those large walls do cast shadows to help get you out of the sun. There is a roof about eight by eight at the two entrances of each field. You cannot see from one field to another and you cannot see a game from the outside... But in the hot afternoon the walls can make it bearable. |

The walls are solid plywood all the way around. You cannot watch from outside the field (unless you're one one of the fields near a hill). On each side (1st & 3rd) there are entrances to the dugouts and to the "fan" areas. The fan areas are just very similar to the camera wells you'll see photographers in at major league stadiums. The dugouts are completely enclosed with wood and screen while the fan areas have screen at the end toward home plate (to protect fans from foul line drives) but are open toward the outfield fence. They have a concrete floor and typically have some stacking plastic lawn chairs in them. They have plywood walls that are about 3 feet tall. What's cool about the atmosphere is that you are completely immersed in your game. No distraction of seeing action on any other field or pedestrian tracking walking by. It also keeps alot of the surrounding sound out, so even though there are fields everywhere, it feels like your game is the only one going on. Click on the link below, then scroll down the page under the Matt Garza & David Price bio's and you'll see a shot of the first base side where the dugout has flag bunting on it, then there is a space, then the fan area starts to the left. Nice wide gap between the dugout and fans. Fan areas are also very far from home plate. No parent umpires on the balls & strikes & a dream for us coaches that have those parents who love to get in their kids ear before and after each at bat...

Bandits with a 6-spot in the 2nd inning. Up 6-1 after 2.
Left-handed catcher? Gotta love youth baseball.
Now I know where the Bandits come down on dugout chatter. :)
