Introducing Your 7U LPR Tigers Coaches Left to Right:

Derek Morgan, Hunt Lobell, David Woods and Steve McLin....
they all love the sport....probably just a little less than their youngens! ...everybody laugh now! We're fortunate to have 4 coaches who love everything about baseball....even love it enough to take the time to teach their children and the rest of their team to love it as well!













1st Tournament: LPR Warm UP First Weekend in June

Pool Play Game #1 Friday, June 3rd 6:00 LPR vs. Gonzales

Final Score: 13 to 11
Guys were pumped...Thank you to Coach David for bringing his music....the guys loved that!
Few Offensive Shout Outs!
Big Shout Out to Reece...our first Home Run of the season! Nice Hit Bud!
It was a close call....he had to slide in....he slid the wrong way, but they just warned us....Lesson Learned....Have to slide feet first!


Brant McSwain snagged him a homer too!


Abedn had a nice line drive!

Hunter Bethel....hit awesome all weekend...had a close call at third base! But he was SAFE!.. Triple for Hunter
DEFENSIVE SHOUT OUTS!
HEAD ON COLLISSION

This isn't the picture, but this is a good time to talk about this! Braden McLin (Tiger catcher) was oh so very focused on making sure he caught the ball... as he should be...he had no clue where the runner was at this moment...he made the catch then turned to tag the runner and ran smack dab right into him.....But, never fear...Hartland was there for the back up...he snagged the dropped ball and tagged him out.....The little fella was hurt though. ...Poor fella he was giving it his all! We will still take the out! I might be wrong on every detail of this play, so please accept my apology now if this is not 100% correct!

GREAT EFFORT BRADEN! WAY TO COVER YOUR BAG!


Final inning...we had to hold em.....we did!

Out #1....Abedn fielded....threw for the Out at 2nd...Great Team Work Abedn & Brant!

Out #2 Hartland fielded way up by the foul line....Didn't even stand up to make the throw! It was like a MLB play! Great Team Work Hartland and Wyatt! Wyatt made the out and 1st!


3rd out! Abedn knocked the ball down as your short stop should do.....picked it up and tagged the runner trying to get to 3rd base! Umpire was hesitant on calling the out...But Abedn kept saying...I touched him...I touched him! FINAL OUT! BALL GAME! TIGERS WIN!




And to remind us that our babies are growing up...faster than we'd like....As a fan in the stand...I hear..."Momma can you help me take my cup off! I guess us Momma's better get use to that.... :)

OUR FELLAS MADE THEIR LAST HUDDLE ....THE COACHES SAY 1-2-3 AND THE BOYS SAY HIT


Well, the hitting didn't happen right away.....I don't write down the negative,so I don't know who got out, but I know we had 2 outs!
