The 2018 Maryland State Little League Tournament was held in Baltimore, at the South Baltimore Little League fields, right up the street from Ft. McHenry. Kent County was there representing District Six - which comprises Kent, Queen Anne's Caroline, Talbot and Dorchester Counties. There were eight teams there and the tournament was double elimination, round robin.
Play Ball!
Our first game was against the team from Hagerstown - they called themselves Big C. We lost. We lost big. This was the very first defeat JMichael ever had on the baseball diamond. They had to invoke the slaughter rule - it was 21 to nothing. The boys rallied to win their next game, and then, lost their third game, ending their tournament for this year.
Wow. What a season. Twleve undefeated regular season games for the Galena Lions. Four undefeated games for the District Six tournament as the Kent County All Stars. Then one win, two losses in the Maryland State Tournament. Great season!
JMichael consistently played first base. This picture was taken by Noah's mom, since he is pitching, but, there's JMichael - ready and eye on the batter - the play may go to first. He really enjoyed his teammates, his position and everything about baseball. He loves being out in the yard and throwing the ball with his Dad. We are already training for next season.
The 2018 District Six Maryland Championship team. JMichael is standing, dead center. Coach Chris said that he made a name for himself as a first baseman to watch. He will keep playing soccer now that baseball is over, but, he's hooked now on baseball, too, so we will be back in the spring.
