texcoug Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 Starts this weekend. Vidor is hosting. Both Vidor teams are good with the first team winning the Battle of the Bridge last weekend in Breaux Bridge. Lots of sticks on that team. How many teams are entering? Orange with 2? TC with 2? Groves? PA?
daddy23 Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 7....only 1 groves team and no PA team to go with 2 teams from Orange, TC, and Vidor. Brackets are out, but I cannot post them due to uploader being full.
VPATH Posted June 16, 2009 Report Posted June 16, 2009 Hal or Clint, do either of you have the bracket? If so, could you send it to me? Thanks in advance.
texcoug Posted June 18, 2009 Author Report Posted June 18, 2009 bump -- where is the talk??? Who is going to challenge Vidor? How does Orange look? TC? Where is PA? Did Groves take the best All Star catcher of all time (the one from last year's tournament)?
daddy23 Posted June 20, 2009 Report Posted June 20, 2009 This thread is never going to make 12 pages at this rate. Last year's thread was much more exciting. Seriously, I am out of town and hoping to get updates here. Please post scores as everyone knows them.
Lazeek Posted June 20, 2009 Report Posted June 20, 2009 I am in Key West and would like updates as well. Lets go TC!!!!!!
texcoug Posted June 20, 2009 Author Report Posted June 20, 2009 TC A (1) kicks off the tournament against Groves A (Groves only has 1 team this year). Vidor A (1) follows against Orange B (1) (Orange A went in the bracket as Orange 2). The final game of the day is Orange A (2) vs. TC B (2) (second team). I will post results later.
daddy23 Posted June 20, 2009 Report Posted June 20, 2009 I heard that Vidor beat Orange in the 2nd game. And Orange beat Twin County in the 3rd game. But I did not hear scores of either. Big showdown between Vidor 1 and Twin County 1 tommorow. Good Luck to Everyone.
texcoug Posted June 20, 2009 Author Report Posted June 20, 2009 Vidor 1 beat Orange 1 (really 2) 20-8. Orange 2 (really Orange 1) beat TC2 26-15. Groves plays ORG 1 (really 2) tomorrow. Vidor 1 plays TC1 tomorrow. Vidor 2 plays ORG 2 (really 1) tomorrow night in the final game.
pirate68 Posted June 21, 2009 Report Posted June 21, 2009 Congrats to Jason and the rest of the Vidor 1 team on there opening win!

Next years thread could get interesting again ;D.. I can see you laughing know Hal.
Lazeek Posted June 21, 2009 Report Posted June 21, 2009 At the airport in Key West heading home.............Hopefully I will get some good news from TC when I get home!!!!
texcoug Posted June 21, 2009 Author Report Posted June 21, 2009 Grant Boucher is still hanging around -- Groves beat ORG 1 (really ORG 2) today. The next game was between TC1 and Vidor 1. Great game and it came down to the final inning. Vidor trailed the entire game but managed to hold TC to only 4 runs in the top of the 6th. In their half of the 6th, Vidor, with 1 out, rallied to score 5 runs to win the game. The nightcap was between Vidor 2 and Org 2 (really Org 1). Vidor 2 won 31-20 and advanced to play Vidor 1 on Tuesday. ORG 2 (really 1) will play Groves tomorrow night followed by TC1 v. TC2. Good luck to all the teams.
Lazeek Posted June 21, 2009 Report Posted June 21, 2009 Heard from a TC parent that this was a great game between TC and Vidor tonight. Hopefully these two will meet again on Thursday for the Championship. Great job TC and congrats Vidor on the come from behind win!!!!!
daddy23 Posted June 21, 2009 Report Posted June 21, 2009 Lazeek, I think there is another Vidor team that is looking to be on the field on Thursday night.
texcoug Posted June 22, 2009 Author Report Posted June 22, 2009 Groves and Orange aren't playing until 7:45 Monday. Correct -- sorry about that. TC 1 plays TC 2 at 6 PM and Groves and Orange play at 7:45. And yes, Rob, it was a great game yesterday. Both teams are fantastic. Orange has some big hitters too.
Lazeek Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 Trying to make it tonight, but if not will definately be there to hopefully see TC and Vidor in the Championship.
texcoug Posted June 22, 2009 Author Report Posted June 22, 2009 TC 1 defeated TC 2 20-9. Orange 1 defeated Groves 24-22 as Groves had the bases loaded with 2 out, down 2 runs, in the bottom of the 6th. The MVP catcher of the Groves team lined out on a great play by the Orange SS. Great game. The Groves catcher (G.B.) stole the show again throughout the night, capping it off with a solid break dance routine to Crazy Frog. I love that kid. So, Orange plays TC tomorrow night to advance in the bottom bracket while the two undefeated teams, Vidor 1 and 2, square off at 7:45.
MJB Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 Great Recap of Monday's Play. The little catcher from Groves is great entertainment. If anyone has a say, please keep those two Monday Night umpires off the field until they get their vision checked and brush up on the rules of the game regarding tagging base runners and fielder interference at second base. It was a good game but there would have been a few more HR's for Orange if they could have touched 2nd base without having to stop and stick a foot between the fielder's feet to make contact and head to 3rd. There were a lot of bad calls in the late game that went both ways. I am glad Orange came out with a win, they battled late in the game to get the outs needed to win.
Lazeek Posted June 23, 2009 Report Posted June 23, 2009 How about directions from Beaumont to the Vidor PONY park. Thanks in advance.
texcoug Posted June 23, 2009 Author Report Posted June 23, 2009 Easiest way (not the fastest) is to exit Main St. in Vidor, turn RIGHT and continue over the RR tracks. Take a LEFT immediately after the RR tracks (Old Hwy 90) and stay on that (going under I10) until parks appear on RIGHT. The park we are playing in is the very last one so it is best to take the first road AFTER the park and drive until you stop (at a stop sign). Turn RIGHT and then you will turn RIGHT into the park.
Lazeek Posted June 23, 2009 Report Posted June 23, 2009 Thanks Clint. Coming to watch the TC boys in action tonight. ;)
