KC Dodgers

What a wonderful several days it has been for Kyle Chapman All Star baseball. The 14 year old team split into two different teams and comprised two out of the 12 entries in the Deer Park 14 Year Old Invitational Tournament. When the smoke cleared (and believe me, in Deer Park, there was plenty of that), the two K.C. teams had earned their way into the finals against each other with a combined record of 7-1. Many of the seven wins were lopsided run-rule victories. Congratulations to the 19 members of the two Kyle Chapman All Star teams entered in the Deer Park tournament for bringing home the first place trophies. Plans are under consideration to allow the two teams to play each other in the near future to determine which is the "true" first place finisher. Thankfully, considering the price of gas and tolls on the Sam Houston Tollway, the deciding game will probably be played on K.C.'s own home field. Meanwhile, 14 miles to the southeast of Deer Park, the 13 year old K.C. All Stars have gone 3-0 to advance to the semi-final round of the 13 year old League City Invitational Tournament. The 13's spotted NASA 5 runs on 7 errors in the first inning of the first game, but managed to regain their poise and composure (not to mention their fielder's mitts) to win the game 5-5 on penetrations to third base (8-7). The next two games were run-rule victories by a combined score of 31-2 against Pasadena 3 and Post Oak (who looked resplendent in their expensive gleeming uniforms but apparently did not want to get them dirty). As a result of their success, the 13's won Division 4 of the 16 team tournament. They advance to tonight's (Tuesday night) semifinal game against an undefeated Pasadena Blue Team at the League City Sportsplex at 8pm. All of the four teams that remain in this tournament are undefeated, so the level of competition should be exciting. That's all for now. Congratulations to the victorious 14's and good luck to the tenacious 13's!!!
