Grand Slam Baseball Club Grand Slam Baseball Club Results: June 7-9 Grand Slam Longhorns 11U offense too much for Oklahoma Ambush in 11-1 rout Grand Slam Longhorns 11U refused to relinquish the lead after grabbing it early against Oklahoma Ambush, recording an 11-1 victory on Friday at LineDrive Super NIT. Eleven runs in the first three innings allowed Grand Slam Longhorns 11U to put the game away early. A hit by pitch, a groundout by Jack Johnson, and a two-run single by Jake Auer during the first inning and an error, a groundout by Caden Backstrom, and a wild pitch in the second inning supplied the early offense for Grand Slam Longhorns 11U. Adam Brauch got a hit in each of his two at bats. He singled in the first and third innings. Jake looked sharp on the mound. Oklahoma Ambush managed just one hit off of the Grand Slam Longhorns 11U's pitcher, who allowed one earned run, walked four and struck out four during his four innings of work. Anthony Potthoff's big day not enough, as Grand Slam Longhorns 11U loses 11-3 to Lou Collier Baseball Stars Anthony Potthoff went 2-3 at the plate, but Grand Slam Longhorns 11U fell 11-3 to Lou Collier Baseball Stars at LineDrive Super NIT on Saturday.

Grand Slam Longhorns 11U lost 8-3 in four innings at LineDrive Super NIT on Saturday, despite outhitting Rico Smoke five to three. Drew Jirak had a busy day at the plate, collecting two extra-base hits. He doubled in the first and second innings. Rico Smoke was sparked by Jackson Dixon and Jake Powers, who teamed up for three hits and four RBIs. In the top of the first, Grand Slam Longhorns 11U grabbed the early lead, 1-0. Drew doubled to ignite Grand Slam Longhorns 11U's offense. A single by Caden Backstrom then moved Drew from second to third. Rico Smoke quickly matched Grand Slam Longhorns 11U's strong inning with a three-run inning of its own in the first. Rico Smoke scored on a wild pitch, an RBI single by Jackson D, and a fielder's choice. Grand Slam Longhorns 11U tied the game in the second on a two-run double by Drew that scored Jake Auer and Cole Perlinger.

Rico Smoke's lone run of the ballgame came in the second inning on an RBI double by Jake Wilcox. IF YOU DON’T TRY IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN Michael Bennion, Instructor If there is one thing I have learned from the game of baseball, it is to never give up. The game is not over until the last out is made. At every level, I have seen players lethargically run down the line. At every level I have seen players sluggishly go through the motions of drills during practice. Nobody in this game is gifted enough and skilled enough to stop practicing and lazily go through the motions. It’s been nearly a century since Babe Ruth first displayed his abilities, and we have yet to see a player who has been considered better than the “Great Bambino.” You can never be satisfied with your skill level because there are always milestones to reach, and these days, people are always looking for the next greatest. I’ve never seen anybody increase their skills by participating in drills at a 50 or 60 percent level. I’ve never seen anybody beat out an infield single by jogging to first base. When an inch can be the difference between a win and a loss, why would a player jog down the line on a routine ground ball, when they can run as hard as they can for 90 feet and increase the chances for their team to score a run? I see too many players quit running three steps out of the batter’s box because they failed to hit the ball past a fielder, when all it takes is a bobble, a throw in the dirt, or improper footwork, for a runner to make it safely to the bag. I see too many kids hit a routine ground ball or fly ball in the infield, and start jogging down the line. The second they start jogging, they have given up. They have quit on themselves and their teammates before the defense has successfully fielded the ball and made the throw. They have taken themselves out before the umpires have told them they are out. You will not reach base every time you hit a ball, but you will reach base a lot more if you sprint there instead of jog. You will fail at some point in your life, whether it’s sports, school or your job.

Whether he is in the batter’s box or on the mound, the game’s on the line, he wants to determine the outcome of the game.

    A FAN’S GUIDE TO 1 KEEPING SCORE 2 By Bob Brown 3 Never Scored a Baseball game? Want to learn how? Here’s a system for you. It’s the one the Orioles Public Relations staff has been 4 using for more than 40 years. 5 There are countless scoring systems, and we don’t claim ours to be better than anybody else’s, but it has been effective and we think it’s relatively simple. 6 Why would you want to score a game in the first place? Well, if you like to keep track of what’s going on in the game, and your memory doesn’t retain each play, scoring is for you. Any system worth its salt should, in a condensed, shorthand-like 1 Pitcher 6 Shortstop 7 format, tell you not only what each batter does at the plate, but should he become 2 Catcher 7 Left Fielder a baserunner, how he moves around the bases.
