We were looking forward to this weekend. State finally arrived, but it's also sad because it means the season is coming to an end. We faced some rain in the forecast, but it ended on Friday. There were no games planned for Friday, so the fields could dry up. The fun started on Saturday. The Tigers played at 10:45 vs Tigers Mitchell. We didn't play really well and Taylor's stomach started hurting. The coach also asked Taylor to bunt with a runner at third, and we call it the "bone-head" decision. Coach JP and Coach Brown all said it was a bad call. Taylor got out and from there, he got down on himself (plus, he was pitching and over threw 1st base). We ended up losing. We started our next game on Saturday night at 5:45 vs the Giants. This game was actually about 20 minutes behind. Gram and Papa came to this game too. We ended up winning this game and playing awesome. The highlight was that we turned two and Taylor got that last out with a throw to 1st base from Zander! He hit the ball really well, too. Sunday brought another game at 10:00 vs the Dragons. Taylor started on the mound and did great in the 1st inning. Then, his 1st at bat was a great double and scored one run for an RBI. He ended up drinking lots of water due to the heat, and his tummy started hurting. He came out of the game in the third inning. He actually threw up and felt better, but sat out 1 inning. We ended up losing 11-4. Sad to think Taylor's days of playing as a Tiger have come to an end. We have decided to move to the Dragon's team next year!
