KC Dodgers

The 14 year old K.C. Allstars had mixed results on Friday & Saturday. Friday night, they trounced a team from Spring-Klein by a score of 12-2. Saturday morning, they were on the short end of a 9-4 decision to a scrappy, tough team from McAllen, Texas. The combined results were enough to propel the 14's into the championship bracket of the tournament, which is now reduced from 16 to 8 teams. The tournament format now shifts to single elimination format-- winner advances and loser goes home. The 14's play at 9:00 a.m. on Sunday at Baseball USA (Sam Houston Tollway two exits north of I-10). If they win, they advance to the tournament semifinals at 3:30pm Sunday, and then to the finals at 6pm, all at the Baseball USA complex. Meanwhile, the 13's won the first game of the Pony 13 Director's Tournament on Saturday afternoon. They beat the Katy Tigers by a score of 12-2 in six innings (run rule). The 13's continue tournament play later today (Sunday) at 1:00pm at the Spring Branch Education Center (Campbell near Westview, about 1/2 mile north of I-10, just east of Campbell). If they win, they advance to the next round at 6pm on Sunday evening. Hey, it's going to be too hot to do anything else on Sunday. Come on out and support your 13's and 14's. With a little timing luck, you can catch 5 great games of Kyle Chapman All-Star action!!!! Admission at both parks is $3 per person over the age of 13, with the exception of players and coaches. See you at the ballpark. Scott Rothenberg
