MBC lost a tight one 4-3 to end the tournament. MBC did qualify for the consolation game, but chose to drive home at a reasonable hour vs playing for 3rd and 4th and leaving Sumas at 11:30 PM.
Things started well for MBC. After giving the Bandits a run in the first, MBC came back in the second to tie the score. Quinn Burcham led off with a single and was followed by a single from Ethan Clements. Quinn scored on Russell Madche's double but that was all the runs MBC was able to score.
In the third, Adam Hinthorne led off with a single and the Bandit's walked Tino Peleti. Perhaps the two towering foul home run shots got to the pitcher, we can never know for sure. Quin singled to drive in Adam and was followed by a single by Ethan that scored Tino but a strong throw nipped Quinn (again) at the plate.
Nick Reeves led off the fourth with a walk and after Cole Burcham doubled MBC had men on second and thrid with one out. Alex Mitchell drove Nick home with a nice sac fly, but Cole, wanting to emulate his big brother, decided to try for third and a nice cut-off throw nailed him.
Ethan Clements pitched a fine game and brought MBC into the seventh nursing a one run lead. A lead off bunt (scary word) single put the tying run on board and when the second hitter squared to bunt, - well I just knew we were going to lose.
Coach Cougan was pretty sure that the flyer for this tournament said NO BUNTING ALLOWED, because you know as well as I do that we should never be in a game that allows bunting; but the tournament director just seemed to look the other way whenever teams bunted against us. And this sort of thing happened against us again and again.
I promise next year to ONLY enter tournaments that will enforce the no bunting rules and I am sure we will fare much better.
