Mid-Season Tnmnt Madness

OK so we played Thursday and beat a Harlingen team by one run in OT. Friday we played two Sebastian teams and won. Saturday we played the same Harlingen team and won again. Then we played San Benito Blue Lacies (Greg's Team) and finally beat them by like three runs. Man their parents were so obnoxious so it made it that much sweeter and our girls were pumped cause they have been after SB for a while. Those parents were in a state of shock, lol. Then we played SB Ballyard Babes (Lisa's Team) and to everyones surprise we beat them 13 to 7 easy. So then the girls had to play them immediately to win 1st place, well I don't think Lisa was gonna let that happen. Her and her assistant coaches caused some major drama after the league put three officials instead of the two that were already there. The leagues reasoning was that it was the championship game, but Lisa and her guys argued that if they would have beat us in the prior game that would have been the championship game and there were only two officials. Lisa's husband screamed at the league director and told him that he showed up for one day and wanted to make the calls. Whatever, after like 20 minutes and what I feel was their way of getting our girls off their high we started the game. Our girls got the very first batter out on first base. Well, Lisa ofcourse had to argue about that and asked the official but didn't ask the one that made the call. So the league directors called her on that and the drama insued again. After their bickering back and forth one of her coaches got kicked out of the game and was escorted out of the park. But he league reversed the call and the runner was safe.....WTF?!?! Our coach was like how can you reverse the call and change the rules? Well, he was so fired up already with all the drama and he was questioning it but not in a nice way I guess.....then he ended up getting kicked out of the game. Mind you he is our pitcher, lol. After that our girls completely gave up. It was so sad to see all the adult drama ruin what was the best games of the season. I do have to say that their parents were really nice about it and even invited our girls to Mr. Gatti's and offered to pay for their dinner as one of the parents is a manager. Really nice, but nobody was up for it. We were so tired and disappointed. Oh well, at least they came in 2nd which is very respectable. Good job Dirt Divas.
