PEEWEE DIVISION:  Lizzies 8  Jays 4

Sammy (12) of the Lizzies (Peewee).

Three Lizzies pitchers combined to limit the vaunted Jays offensive machine to only four runs in five innings of play at Diamond # 2 today. As a result, the Lizzies defeated the Jays 8-4 to win the first Peewee Division round robin game of the tournament.

Kudos to the Lizzies pitching brigade of Cooper (13) [2.0 innings pitched, 3 strikeouts and 2 runs allowed]; Sammy (12) [1.0 IP, 2 K’s, o RA] and Jacob (4) [2.0 IP, 5 K’s, 2 RA]. Their efforts allowed the Lizzies to make the most of their offensive opportunities to seal the victory. 

And a special kudos to Naiemul (14) of the Lizzies for hugging Catcher Cameron (7) of the Jays at home plate before his at bat in the top of the fourth inning.
