Evergreen Park Assault Baseball

FROM LAST PLACE TO 2ND! Playing in a league made up of 13/14 year olds this fall ball season and our team made up of 12/13 year olds it was a difficult one, but the boys didn’t quit. With only 8 players on our team today we were able to accomplish the unthinkable. We managed to play the whole day winning all the games to reach the championship. Unfortunately we fell a little short, but we are super proud of the team and how they played their hearts out! Great Job boys!!! 💚👏🏼🥈🖤

We officially kicked off our 2023 fall ball season with a tournament at the Ho-Chunk Southland baseball league. We played some competitive teams and ended the tournament in third place. Have to give it to the boys for their resilience and heart. Looking forward to what’s in store this season!

Goals!

Don’t let anyone tell you that your dreams are “unrealistic”

Another ring for the boys! Congrats to the team for making the finals and placing second, it was a hard fought tournament and the boys battled to the end. Our work is not done yet, let’s go for the gold on the next one! Good job boys, we’re proud of you! 👏🏼🥈⚾️💪🏼

Our run to the championship in the tournament was cut short but the boys played their hearts out in an intense game lasting 12 innings! We were told by the board of the tournament that it was the longest game that has been played in this tournament to date. Esau pitched an impressive 8 scoreless innings and 8 strikeouts! Wasn’t the ending we wanted but the boys will come back stronger! 🖤⚾️💚

We’re back for our annual out of state tournament in Sandusky, Ohio and the boys are excited to be a part of it. In our first game the boys played resilient with a 8-3 victory over the Brownlee Lookouts from Cleveland. Congrats to Jacob for ripping an absolute bomb out of the park for his second home run of the season. Unfortunately, our second game didn’t go our way but we’re in a good spot for tomorrow. With a record of 1-1 for the tournament heading into championship Sunday the boys are ready to go deep into this tourney! 🖤⚾️💚

This weekend we’re playing in our first tournament, the “End of Summer Showdown,” in Aurora, IL. This tournament has some competitive teams but the boys won both games today against the Windy City 13U and West Dundee Bison 13U teams. This puts the team in a good spot and are ready for championship Sunday. Congrats to Ian Mora for winning MVP of one of our games! Great job boys, keep your eyes on the prize! 🖤⚾️💚

The boys responded well to Friday’s loss in today’s game against the Omega Delta Eagles. The bats were hot as we scored 18 runs on 16 hits. Keep up the great work boys, let’s get ready for the next one! 💚⚾️🖤

…And our fall ball season is underway! Our first game of the season was against the West Englewood Tigers, It was an action packed game with great hitting and defense. Although we were down, the boys did not give up and almost came back to win it. Congrats to Jacob for hitting his first home run of the season! Great effort boys, on to the next one!

Last night the team was treated to the White Sox game against the Astros to watch one of the best pitching matchups of the year. They were also given access to watch the Astros take batting practice from the bleachers before the gates opened to the public. The boys claimed all the home run balls and were even able to play catch with some of the players. It was an awesome experience and definitely one they’ll remember! 💚⚾️🖤
