high school games... love 'em.!

[Ring 'em Up]

Last night i umped Gahr & Warren JV's.. two pretty good teams. WOW.! What a game. Pitching duel mostly, with 2 great pitchers. Both teams parents probably were biting their nails. Gahr in the 3rd, had the bases loaded with 1 out.. and the pitcher for Warren proceeded to pound Gahr's batters with strikes.. no runs scored. in the 4th, Warren had men on 2nd and 3rd, when Gahr's pitcher pounced on the batters.. no runs scored. In the 6th, one of Gahr's batters hit a whopper to the fence and he made it to 3rd, and the next batter got on 1st. A blooper over the SS's head drove in one run. and that was it, as Warren's pitcher went to work and struck out 3. 

All in all it was really a pleasure umping this game..!

Nice, thanks for sharing.

Very nice -

Our local has some JV teams (from bigger schools) that play much better baseball than some of the small school varsity teams. Guys just need to remember that just because your schedule says JV, that the game will be less - for that matter, some of the lower class schools may give you a better game, just because the teams are evenly matched.
