Dear Cheeto nation,

Awesome win last night, so many highlights. It was very much a "Team" win. Very proud of the boys, especially the 10YO's who stepped up, got on base, and made some terrific defensive plays.

Now we move on to play our rival, Citizen.

Sunday, June 11, noon Ross Field

Please plan to arrive by 11:15, we will conduct IF/OF and review the game strategy.

Please let me know ASAP of any conflicts.

Let's Go Cheetos!!!

Coach Mike

To clarify GLL canceled all activities which includes the batting cages.

Hopefully everything opens tomorrow.

Coach Mike

 

Team-

In case you didn't get the mail from GLL, today's game is again postponed due to AQI. We will try tomorrow at same time. We will have same plan to arrive at 4PM for a practice before the game.

Thanks,

If anyone needs a ride to practice, please advise and we will arrange a carpool. If anyone has a conflict, please let me know ASAP, because the league is very strict on the lineups in the playoffs.

The plan is to go at same time tomorrow. I will sedn details on practice/warm up later today.

Please advise any conflicts.

Dear Cheetos,

What a spectacular win yesterday at Welles! Not often do you see a Grand Slam, a second homer and 3ea 10 year olds pitch and give up just one run. Combine that with a very solid performance from our "Game Baller", Noah, and it translates to a lopsided, dominant win. Congratulations to the Team for rallying and achieving second place in the regular season with only 2 losses on the field. 

We move to the playoffs this week. It is important to emphasize that "perfection" is not the goal, but solid fundamentals win these games.

• There will definitiely be strikeouts, but we need to swing at good pitches.
• We need to be fully aware when running the bases, aggressive yes, but reckless- NO. Listen and look for instruction on the basepaths from the BASE Coaches. 
• There will be balls hit hard off our pitching, but we field them in front of us and hit the cutoff man.
• Every play we need to be thinking BALL (when it's hit to me, where do I go?) BASE (what base do I throw to or cover, or cutoff), BACKUP (where do I need to be to backup plays). Every player on the field needs to think of this on every pitch.

Here is the schedule:

WEDNESDAY, 4:15: Pregame PRACTICE at Butler: 4:15- I know that's tight for everyone, but please get there when you can. There will be fielding, short BP and a review of Game Strategy.

WEDNESDAY, 5:15 arrival: GAME at 5:30 Butler #1 vs winner of McCabe and Budget (game Mon Welles#1 5:30). I believe we are Home team.

if we advance:

FRIDAY, 5:10 arrival: GAME at 5:30 Butler #1

if we win that game:

SUNDAY, 5:30 arrival: GAME at 6:00 Ross Field

We may schedule another practice in between, I will let you know as the week unfolds.

Finally, Good Luck to all of the All Star candidates today and Tuesday!

Let's win 3 more!

Coach Mike

 

We will go as long as the thunder holds off; no later than 6:45.

I know the 10YO have all star tryouts, so we'll be flexible. Need to work on the "D"!

Caoch Mike

 

Folks-

Weather looks iffy for practice tonight, as a thunderstorm just rolled through the area. I'm going to monitor and give go or no-go at approx 5PM. In the event GLL cancels all events, then that will be the call for us.

Coach Mike

Reminder: Game tomorrow at Welles 11:30 (11:10 arrival)
