Tyler's team won gold medals in their league for the regular season going undefeated in league play this year. This week started tournament play. They lost their first game to MetaBank. They would have to play Newel Fonda in the losers bracket in this double elimination tournament. Tyler pitched a great 3 innings and struck out 5 batters in the victory over Newell Fonda. I wonder if the buck a strike motivated him at all :) So now he is $15 richer. Since MetaBank got beat by Paxton's in the winners bracket, Villager and Metabank would meet again in yesterday's game. Tyler was again throwing some heat and struck out the first 3 batters. He struck out 2 more in the second inning before walking one batter who eventually scored making the game 0 to 1 going into the 3rd inning. Tyler did strike out one more before MetaBank was able to put a bat on the ball to score another run making it 2 to 0 in the 3rd. Going into the 4th inning Villager came out swinging, scoring 5 runs in the 4th inning to take the lead in the game. Metabank would score one more run in the 5th but it wasnt enough as Villager got revenge and eliminated Metabank from the tournament. Next game is Thursday at 530p in Aurelia against Paxton's. If Villager beats Paxtons, they will eliminate them from the tournament and face Aurelia in the championship game at 730, however, if Villager wins the first game, they would play on Friday again for the tournament title. So as you can see this week is very busy, after baseball this week, we travel to Jamaica Iowa where Tyler hopes to extend his current point lead in the JR 1 Gas class in kart racing.
