Baseball is over.......

Baseball is over, wow, what an incredible season. We won our first game on Thursday 15-1, then lost Thursday night 8-9 (extra innings) in a well played, well fought game.

Played again Friday morning, won 11-9, and then played again Friday evening, lost 7-11, the score really doesn't show how well played the game was. The whole team played awesome, they had a great season, we ended up in the top 8. Not too bad for a team from little ol' Lebanon.

SOOOO, the boys are getting ready to leave for their big adventure, roadtrip to Missouri (will be gone about 3 weeks) and then it looks like Drake might be playing football (mom is still thinking about).......

Midget baseball team makes state

Lebanon's Midget American traveling baseball team advanced to the state playoffs after a victory over Mt. Hood on Monday night.

Playing against the No. 2 seeded team from the Tri-County league, Lebanon needed a win to keep the season alive. The 8-6 win fulfilled their playoff dream.

With the win, Lebanon improved to 11-3 on the season.

Members of the team are: Marcus Frazier, Drake Harrison, Dylan Williams, Walker Miller, Ryan Restau, Reuben Ernst, Isaac Garber, Cody Johnson, Ty Hogan, Brandon Lyon, Ty Hargis, Khalob Christiansen and Brandon Chapman.

It is the first time in the state playoffs for this group of players.

The team is coached by Jason Williams, with assistants Glenn Walters and Eric Frazier.

“Special mention should go to all the parents for the hectic schedules that this level of a team requires,” Williams said. He also thanked the team's sponsor, Ram Trucking, and the Boys & Girls Club of Lebanon. “Without any of their support our team wouldn't have been as successful,” he said.

Lebanon's first playoff game is at 1:15 p.m. on Thursday in Portland.
