On the Little League front, my grandson, Tai, thought that his Little League playing days were over when he broke his thumb in the district finals in Washington. Lo and behold, the kids has been cleared for pitching duties, and his team won the Washington State Little League Championship this year. and are on their way to California for the regional, and hopefully on to the Little League World Series. He will not be able to play the field, but will get some relief pitching duties. Their first game is Friday at 8:30 AM our time , and it will be telecast on ESPN 3. He is on the Pacific Team, Edmonds, WA. Watch it if you get a chance. Go Tai. Your grandpa is sooo proud of you. I am sorry that you are only at about 50% of your capacity, but you are a battler, and you will do just fine.
After the first round, the top four teams advance to the semifinals on Thursday, Aug. 7 for single elimination play. The final two teams advance to the championship game on Saturday, Aug. 9 at 1 p.m.
The Pacific team is led by team manager Robley Corsi, Jr., and assistant coaches Eric Grant, Ross Kruse and Sean Durbin. Doug Sheldon is President of Pacific Little League.
The all-star team players are: Robley Corsi III, Read Carr, Tygan Duncan, Tyler Durbin, Ben Grant, Nate King, Logan Kruse, Ian Michael, Tai Starchman, Karsen Tjarneberg, Matthew Turcotte, Mason Vaughn and Colton Walsh.
