@Taylor_McGregor So Busch’s HR hit Yankee flag impeding distance. Do Orioles use projected distance or it actually has to hit past their rules to get a marker on Eutaw Street?
@VincentDJohnson@UniWatch@CelticBASE@BaseballBloom has a city jersey “the heights”, camo military appreciation jersey, a Hispanic heritage jersey and next year doing a Jackie Robinson Day hat and uniform
So this might be a first. Can anyone recall a high school team doing a MLB style city connect jersey?
Providence Catholic, who are the Celtics, and from New Lenox, IL, have an alternate jersey that says "Emerald Isle." @UniWatch@CelticBASE#bwg12/780" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">visualpreservationist.com/illinois-high-…
@VincentDJohnson@UniWatch@CelticBASE We've had one since '01 for Bloom Township. Even did our team schedule this year around the uniform. Based colors off of the Chigago Heights flag.
Melvin Lee's consecutive hit streak came to an end at 7, but BT still gets the win today 16-6. Talen Tavergne got the win in his first ever Varsity start, going 4 and giving up only 1 ER and striking out 9. During Melvin's streak he went 1B, 1B, 2B, 1B, 2B, 1B, 2B with 5 RBIs.
