Tyler's team went to play in a tournament in Beaver the next weekend. The first day was just pool play to put them into the brackets for the next day. Since they had lost a game the first day they ended up having to play at eight the next morning. They lost the first game which put them in the loser side of the bracket and since it was a double elimination bracket they were still in but had to win to stay in it. These boys played so hard the rest of the day. They played one game after another. They would get the win every time in the last inning of the game. They didn't get a break for lunch either. One of the moms ran and grabbed them some burgers to eat when they were in the dug out and they would run to the bathroom between games.
It was a very long day, but the kids had fun.
Tyler had some really good plays on first base and it was really fun to watch these boys.
Their was a play ground out in the out field so the little kids were fine staying at the ball field all day too.
These boys ended up making it all the way back to the championship game! By this time the boys had been playing since eight in the morning and this last game was about six that night. If they won it they would have to play the same team again since that team hadn't lost yet. Mason got to be a sub for Tyler's team this week since they ended up having a boy on the team leave during these games.
Drake had a great time! As long as he had a ball and his bat he was happy! He had all the snakes a kid could want too. Plus he had his cousins there to play with.

Since Camille was staying down at my house for swimming lessons they came down with us to Beaver to watch the boys. Camille stayed the night at Brittny and Eric's house in Minersville, which is right close to Beaver. Brittny and her kids came and watched the boys games both days also. The kids all had a lot of fun together playing and watching some baseball.
Tyler's team ended up losing the Championship game, which we all decided was okay because they were so tired from playing all day long without a break and they had played so hard all day. They did a really good job and all had a lot of fun!
