It's baseball season! Flashes hosted Paraclete on 3/5/10 in the So Cal Invitational tournament. The Flashes had a bad game against a good team who was playing great. Paraclete put double digits on the board by the end of the game while Fillmore struggled to build a rally. I chalk it up to first game jitters. What we got to see was the depth of the pitching on the team this year which is nice to have on the rooster.
On 3/6 Fillmore hosted Santa Monica as part of round two of the So Cal Invitational tournament. The Flashes looked like they were starting to play some team baseball on this game. The Flashes bats were starting to make contact with Sal Ibarra putting one over the new fence. Speaking of the field it looks great. With the new field players could expect faster play, no more sprinkler pot holes in out field. The hometown came close to getting the rally going but fell short. Fans didn't seem to mind as when the rain came down the umbrellas came out and with only one rain delay the boys played on.
3/10 Fillmore traveled to North Hollywood and got their game face on. Some of the players said it was slug fest for Fillmore. The boys came home feeling good but also recognize they have work to do.
3/11 Fillmore travled somewhere, yea I'm a little disconnected on this report, sorry. I recieved one text from my "on the scence field reporter" that the team was heading into the 9th inning! What that's all you got for me? Flashes earned the win with a 3 - 0 score after 9 inning of play.
3/13 My schedule doesn't show a game buy my son says they're playing at home at 11:00. More later. Come on out and watch some Flashes Baseball. Bring a lawn chair a cool beverage and some seeds and watch the boys play ball. It really is a community thing.
