Once again, the Annual Joey Danger Memorial Celebrity Pro-Am Kickball Classic Invitational and Good Times Fun Celebration went off with out a hitch. Well, except for the torrential rains and frigid temps, but you can't have it all, all of the time. All in all, there was a great turn out and someone even had the foresight to bring a grill. It didn't function that well for some reason or another, but you have to appreciate the effort. Anyway, on to the good stuff...
Semi-Final 1 #1 seed 1/8 Mexican- 20
#4 seed Call Me I$hmael-10
In the first game, the Whalers, coming off of their first win of the season, were expecting to keep their momentum going against the Mexis. And through the first several innings, that's exactly what they did, jumping out to a 10-4 lead after 4. In the bottom of the 4th however, the Mexis came storming back, serving the Whalers up their 2nd 10 pc. McNugget in as many weeks. From there, the Mexis didn't look back and cruised into the finals.
Semi-Final 2 #2 seed Walruses of Mass Disapproval- 13
#3 seed Animal Kingdom- 18 Extra Innings!
Another hard fought game on both sides. The WMDs seem to have a knack for taking teams to extra frames, but couldn't pull this one out. A couple of defensive miscues and some untimely pop outs proved to be the nails in the coffin for the WMDs. The Animal Kingdom however, once again played their asses off with a solid team effort from all.
A big 5 run top of the inning in the extra frame from the Animals put the pressure on the WMDs to come up with some runs, but the Animals were able to shut it down and move on to the finals.
3rd Annual Joey Danger Memorial Celebrity Pro-Am Kickball Classic Invitational and Good Times Fun Celebration Y2K+10! Championship Game!
#1 seed 1/8 Mexican- 11
#3 seed Animal Kingdom- 18
The mighty Mexis have fallen! In spite of the aforementioned torrential rains and frigid temps, that only got worse as the game went on, The Animal Kingdom was able to keep their momentum going from the 1st round into the championships and sent the Mexis to their 1st ever defeat. Jumping out to a 10-1 lead after 2, the Animals put the pressure on early with contributions from everyone on the team. The Mexis fought back in the 3rd with 5 of their own, but just couldn't muster enough offense through the later innings to get them back into the game. A couple of runs here and there for the Animal Kingdom put the game out of reach and they cruised to W in the season's first tourney. Congrats, dudes and chicks.
Here's the bracket. I'll try to get some pics up later...
