MV Juniors Suffer First Loss in Great Game

What a nail biter! Kevin Jordan hit a heck of a shot, but Mission San Jose’s shortstop made a heck of a leap and catch, and with that our unbeaten streak comes to an end, 6-5. During the regular season a 10-game win streak followed by a loss means you’re on top of the world. In a tournament it means that we are in a tough position, but not out of it by any means.

So, Monday at 2:00, back at Willow Glen our second win streak begins against the winner of the Visalia/Wood Creek (Roseville) game.

Mill Valley’s bats were quieter than usual today with only five hits, and no extra base hits. So, hats off to Harry Spilman, Kevin Jordan, Jon Wachtel, Jon Finkelstein and Quincy Karp for their bats today. And, thanks to Harry, Kevin, Jay Hopelain and Michael Brewer for some very good pitching. Click here for the story in today's IJ.

There will be practice tomorrow at 3:00. And thanks to Larry Harrison, Joe Karp, and Dan Finkelstein for volunteering to drive on Monday. We will leave the Community Center at 11:30.

Go Mill Valley Juniors All Stars!
