The Junior Bombers at first thought they were snake bit after two heartbreaking losses at the prestigious USA Baseball 16U World Championship East. In Game One they led the strong Miami Raiders going into the seventh inning, but a couple of costly base running mistakes and errors plagued them in an eight inning struggle for an 8-12 loss. In Game Two the familiar seventh inning once again came back to haunt them as they led the Southwest Florida Baseball Club only to drop the game 4-5 in the seventh due to youthful mistakes.
Coach Welch rallied the team in Game Three in an impressive 10-0 win over Team Colorado and today over the Broward Bulldogs 12-5. According to Coach Welch the team is playing better and had a much better day today with an impressive mound performance from Zack Willoughby and another home run by Ajay Snow. The game highlight was a two RBI inside the park home run by Charlie Spencer. In the previous game against the Colorado team Jake Croft had another impressive performance with a 12K game.
The team has their back against the wall tomorrow with a must win to get into the 32 team championship bracket. They will play the Palm Beach Select tomorrow to determine if they advance into the championship bracket or will play in the consolation bracket.
Time to Bomber Up guys!
