Just for the record. On This same day at Mingus Park 10 teams (13 and younger)Played a Babe Ruth Tournament (Eugene area considers these Babe Ruth tourneys)
There were a LOT of people young and old that had a LOT of fun.
The cost for these teams to get together is rather high when you add the travel cost and I admire everyone that supports these activities.
The umpires were over all Good, but its a shame to pay $225.00 to play in a tournament and loose it because of bad calls. There was only one ump per game --- and that is not and never will be enough, especially when you Pay to play....
Also, while I'm venting --- On Friday I spent a couple hours on-line trying to find out where this tournament was being played - never did find out on-line and now today still can not find any information on who won ???
