Game 3 of the District 35 AA All Star Tournament: Sayville vs. Islip NL
The Sayville team improved their tournament record to 2-1 with a 10-1 victory over the Islip NL entry. Near flawless defence from both teams was quite impressive. Joey's incredible catch at 1st base (shown above) was the play of the game!
Game 1 of the District 35 AA All Star Tournament: Sayville vs. Islip AL
Sayville quickly fell behind and entered the 5th inning trailing 11-3. An incredible 2 out rally by the Sayville team produced 7 runs. Some great pitching and good defense on both sides prevented any more runners from reaching home. It was a very exciting game that Islip hung on to win by the final 11-10 score. This should be a very interesting tournament.
The 9U Grays won their first of the season behind some gritty pitching, fielding and hitting. Thomas B started off the excitement with a fence clearing 3-run homer! In a nail biter finish, they held off the Sharks to post an 11-10 victory.
Division AA playoff round #2! The Mets vs. the Yankees to see who would move on to the next round. In this well balanced match up, the Yankees came out the victors. Joey M pitched a terrific game. Good luck in round #3! Like the Mets (almost) always say, "just wait until next year!"
The 9U Grays finally got to make up for the early season rain out vs. the Three Village Yankees. Photo coverage was limited to just the second game of the double header, but both games were fun to watch.
First playoff game for the AA division - Mets vs. Cardinals. The Cards won as their ace, Jack pitched a complete game! Some very solid infield play limited the Mets run scoring as well. Both teams played very well!
Final regular season game - Mets Vs. Yankees. Good performances all around. Wishing everyone the best of luck in the playoffs!
A terrific game for both teams. All players should be proud of their tremendous effort. The Cardinals pitcher, Jack should be especially proud as gave his best performance of the year while striking out 12 and not allowing a runner past 2nd base. Very impressive!
A very exciting game between two well matched teams. Stellar performances on the part of so many players made this game a joy to watch!
A hard fought double header against a very tough opponent. The Grays and the Bulldogs gave it all today. Exciting games to watch.
Tie game...bottom half of the final inning...bases loaded...two out. AJ strokes a solid single to left to drive in the walk off winning run for the Mets. Both teams played very well and should be very proud!
Sayville Mets vs. Central Islip Yankees... Shades of the subway series this weekend? Good game, gentlemen! Well played by both teams.
Another hard fought contest against a very formidable opponent. The Elwood Storm team held tough against some solid pitching, fielding, and hitting on the part of the Grays 9U squad. Everyone played with lots of heart on a truly gorgeous day! Spring baseball is the best!
Mets vs. Mets - orange shirts everywhere. Believe it or not, the Mets won! It was a fun game to watch. Be sure to watch Albert's Mattingly-like catch and unassisted put out at first on ESPN - it's their play of the week!
The Saturday rematch between the Mets and Cards was a good one. Good pitching, hitting and fielding all around.
Another twilight game. The first baseman is truly challenged as the sun approaches the tree line. A well played game on both sides. Rematch scheduled for Saturday...
A tough double-header on a beautiful afternoon. The Sayville Grays 9U team held their own against the unbeaten Smithtown Bulls. The Bulls prevailed again, but it was a very good baseball day.
Another very good game with another great set of photos by Vicki.
Another twilight game. Started getting a bit cold as the sun quickly dropped. All in all, another fun game.
Vicki covered the AA division twilight game between the Mets and the Astros. Some stellar plays were made in the field as well as with the bats. This is going to be a very interesting season!
The Sayville Grays 9U team played a tough double-header vs. the Kings Park Knights. Pretty amazing to watch these kids play and try to remember that they're only 9 years old! These are some very talented and dedicated players on both teams!
Sayville Little League Opening Day Parade and Ceremonies. The weather held out so that all could celebrate the beginning of the new baseball season. New York's senior senator, Chuck Schumer took the time out from his busy schedule to attend the ceremony and provide some encouraging words to all. Thank you, Senator Schumer! And of course, thank you to the Sayville Little League Board of Directors for all of their efforts to organize this very important community event. We spent the rest of the day taking the official team and individual player portraits for the 2010 season. All in all, a very good day!
Sayville Grays vs. Connetquot Chiefs
The fall season has begun. What a great day!
