Down 7-0 + Extra Innings + Come back = Best little league game ever!

So if you have notice the background of our blog has changed. Our family is a family that loves baseball! Thanks dad for taking me to all the games you did when I was a kid!!! Anyway, it is baseball season, the Cubs are playing, spring is in the air...life is good.

Today was our first game for our Rookie League Cubs team. Jason is the manager, and he is a really good one I might add. So, today was our first game.

We were in the second inning against the Athletics and it was 3-0, we were losing. They were good, but we kept having fun. Jason's 3 things for a team are 1. Teamwork 2. Sportsmanship 3. Fun. At the end of the 6th inning we needed one run to tie, and we got it! We headed into extra innings. The other then scored another run. We had to get one to tie again or two to win it. We had two guys on and Ian came up to bat. John was up after Ian. Ian had two strikes and he nailed the ball in the outfield. The other two boys scored with the second sliding into home for the win! We won 9-8! It was such an exciting game! The boys never gave up!!! Go Cubs Go!!
