Minor Rays win again

As part of an Arden Little League sweep at our home fields on Saturday morning (the Major and Junior teams won also), the Minor Rays beat the Citrus Heights A’s to advance to the next round of the TOCs. With great pitching from Ryan Young, Brooke Furukawa and the Rays closer, Jay (the Beard) Wilson, and great defensive plays around the diamond and in the outfield, the A’s just couldn’t get much started. The hot bats of Mitchell Dixon and Adon Stassi, combined with clutch hits from Jack Harris and RBI-king, Jake Nelson, helped build an early lead that the Rays never gave up. Congratulations to another great team victory, and good luck on Monday!

Minor Brewers vs. Rays: June 1, 2011

Championship game lives up to expectations

The Rays and Brewers battled it out Wednesday to set the seeding for the upcoming TOC games. Carter Benbrook pitched four and a third shutout innings before the Rays were able to finally get a hit. With run support on great hits by Lincoln Tadewald and Carter Benbrook, the Brewers had a 5 to nothing lead going into the 5th inning. But the Rays don’t ever go away and came racing back to tie it up at the end of five. Jay (the beard) Wilson, in to relieve Mitchell Dixon’s who had a great performance, shut down the Brewers bats in the sixth, leaving the door open for the Rays to grab a come-from-behind victory. Mitchell Dixon drove in the winning run with a walk-off single, giving the Rays the victory. Both teams played well, with terrific team and individual efforts from a number of players including Ryan Young, Spenser Davis, Jake Nelson, and Jack Harris for the Rays, and Drake Charamuga, Phil Cloeter, Colin Brannan and Finlay Thomson for the Brewers. We wish both teams good luck in their upcoming TOC games next week!
