On a rainy Saturday our league playoffs got underway and although some division were completed it was a disappointing day due to the rain.
With rain falling throughout most of the day and in some cases playing games on fields that were not to par to say the least we were able to get some games in and crown some Champions.
There were some surprises, and when it happens in most seasons, they come in the 12u divison. The Cannons Baseball Academy team walked off against the Tamarac Cavaliers to get into the semifinals and they would have to face against the Miramar Canes who pulled off a big win of their own when they beat the #1 seed PL Bulldogs Red 9-3 The Cannons went into the final inning with a 4-1 lead but the Canes mounted a rally to load the bases, but failed to score when an attempt to scored on a passed ball was not successful. Cannons went on to beat the Canes 4-1 and would wait to face the Hitmen or the PLO BUlldogs White...these two were deadlock at 5-5 after regulation time ended.
The League's tie-breaker is to load the bases with no-outs, but a costly running mistake by the Bulldogs may have cost them the game. The Bulldogs would go on and scored 3 runs, but could not hold off the Hitmen as they would score 4 runs helped by walks to win the game and face Cannons Baseball in the Championship Game.
With the constant thread of rain the game was started but could not be finished. The two teams will play the game and we will let you know on the outcome. Congratualtions to both teams !!
