Griffin's Field Trip/Columbus Zoo

Friday, Griffin's class and the other first grade classes went to the Columbus Zoo for a field trip. Marsha went as a chaperone. They had a great time with great weather and got to see the new baby elephant that was born recently.

Pickerington Tournament

The Lions played in their 3rd tournament of the season in Pickerington. All the games were played at Pickerington North High School. Great weather all weekend made for a wonderful time. Unfortunately the Lions left their bats back in Gahanna. Too many walks and not enough hits did them in on Friday night. New Albany (A team we had run ruled twice) beat the Lions 11-4. This mad the next two pool games, must wins. First game Saturday morning against the Pickerington Tigers started kinda bad. The Lions fell behind 5-1. Cameron pitched the first three innings and pitched okay. The Lions clawed their way back and took the lead in the 5th and held on 8-7. This set up the 3rd and final pool game against Westerville. Going in the Lions knew they had to beat the Wildcats by 14 runs to advance due to the first tiebreaker being runs allowed. The bats stayed quiet and Gahanna fell 9-4. Next up two practices this week and a doubleheader on Saturday at home.

Game 22 Lions vs NCS Raiders

Looked like we might not get to play as the skies looked threatening. But since we were not scheduled to start til 6:30, the light rain that fell was gone before we started. The NCS Raiders were only playing their second game of the season. They appeared over matched from the get go. Brandon Wise pitched the first two innings picking up the win and Josh Oddi the last two. The Lions run ruled NCS 13-3 in 4 innings. Lions are 15-7 now. Next up a practice tomorrow and the Pickerington tournament this weekend.

Game 9 Rays vs Phillies

It was a tougher game indeed for Griffin's Rays. They found themselves down 3-1 after two innings. They kept pecking away and got the gloves going at the same time. They pulled ahead and won 9-3 Griffin had a tough day at the plate going 0 for 3. Next up June 9th against the 2nd place Mets. A championship game preview?? We shall see.
