End of the Softball Season - Rosie's Team

We had our best season yet - we won our league!!!  Our record was 7-2!!! We beat St. Paul in our final game, and it was a nail-biter.  We were tied 11-11 in the bottom of the 5th & had been playing for 1 hr 40 minutes (max is 1 hr, 45 minutes), so we got 7 runs (maximum per inning).  We had to hold them or tie, and we won 18-14.  It was so hot, but my pitcher (Maddie) battled through 6 innings.  We hit like crazy - they hit well too but not as solidly as us.  Maddie had some walks which hurt but overall, we were the better team!  Yeah Chargers!  So excited & happy for them!  Well deserved!

My shortshop, Mary Kate, is moving to Dallas & we will miss her.  She was very good & a strong hitter.  She actually jammed her finger catching a tough pop fly & still managed to play on!  We only had 7 players for our final game, but they were quite the team.  They talked to each other & really worked together.  I will miss softball until next year....
