What a night of baseball!!
Seven heaven wasn’t to be for our majors squad, getting pipped at the post by Panthers Baseball Club in the tenth inning
A very high standard of baseball with minimal errors, and a pitching duel, seen Panthers out last out our boys by two runs thanks to a Bradley Joyce shot with a runner on.
Our batting line up was well held by the Panthers battery, and they were also very solid in the field.
Congratulations goes to the Panthers baseball club who won their first premiership since 2009
We didn’t go home empty handed though!!
The kids of the club ( and a sprinkling of very old people) managed to over come the league leaders, Cats Baseball club in a tight Affair.
With Trey Luteria and Beau Bridley holding down the pitching duties, we were able to hold out Cats taking the premiership 8 to 6
The pair only gave up one hit over five innings of work to show composure well beyond their years
We shared around the hits with six people all collecting one hit
The game was closed out with a Beau Bridley strike out.
one of the highlights in the last inning was a running catch to Jackson Edwards that would have allowed two more runs to score and tie up the game.
Trey Luteria was adjudged the Trevor Marsland medalist with his tireless efforts on the bump.
The majors were were well represented in the team of the year with Jaikob Mathews, Noah Mathews, Jarrad White, and Caleb Thornton all making team of the year.
Jaikob Mathews also took out the Rice medalist for the best player during the year.
It wasn’t our night in the majors, but with still the youngest team in both the majors and minors the club will not take long to bounce back
Special thanks goes to Shannon Edwards and Nathan Lynch for doing the lion share of the coaching through out the year.
Also Melissa Mathews for scoring the final and most of the minor round games.
Also shout out to Tully Mcculloch and Mark Bridley helping out on the bar!
And thanks to the faithful fans, be it parents, friends or past players that continue to support us
The Tigers baseball club are proud of our teams efforts through out the year and will continue to show faith in our juniors in the coming years!!
