The night before all stars begins...

This truly feels like the night before Christmas! This group of kids has won the last two district tournaments, which was a lot of fun. Of course, that was then, this is now, and there are no guarantees. Nor would we want them. We can only hope that the guys will play as well as they are capable of. Of course!

The Lakewood Village 11/12 year old all stars will face West Long Beach tomorrow at Stearns Park at 5pm.

There are a few additions to the all star-laden Dodgers (Mondesi, Doctor, Fisch, Ripper, Justin (tips), Tiger, and Nate are our all stars):

Albert--he is speedy and was on the Dodgers two years ago in Minor A. He is a very enthusiastic, hustling boy.

TC--a slugger; he bats left and throws right. He hit one of the strangest home runs this year, which should've been a HR but ended up technically a triple because the runner in front of him missed home plate. A football player.

Christian--another rabbit who tore up district all stars last year with a .700+ average. He has toiled away on the bottom team this year and is itching to play amidst the big boys again.

Ian--from the Angels, the one great pitcher who was not on our team this year. He is tall and athletic, and was the runner up in the HR derby to Mondesi this year.

Jake--a lefty, he slaps the ball to left field a lot and has a good glove. He hit his first home run in the post season all-district team tournament.

Play ball!
