the boys of summer

This week in Sports News; a historic and momentous event in the annals of Baseball history - Los Pescadores vs. Los Careqeños!!!

That's right, ladies and gentlemen, the classic matchup of hard-nosed city-slickers and corn-fed country boys battling it out with gloves and bats for the honor of the North Coast Champion's title. Special thanks to Kyle Lewis of Ark City, KS for the donated equipment, and Park Plaza Church for the donated T-shirts!


It was a close game, with both teams evenly matched in skill and size, but in the end, the Pescadores beat themselves by refusing to play as a united team. Says Pescadores'coach Oswaldo Canario, "This team has lots of potential, and as we continue to learn to play together in a united, Christ-like way, there'll be no stopping us."


In any case, a great time was had by all. We celebrated the Carequeño win with popcorn and Coca-Cola. Talks of a rematch are under way, with the Pescadores eager to practice batting and working together.
