The BC Crush were in Alamo for another 10-u tournament. This time it was live pitch. BC had played just one live pitch tourney since forming.

Format was two pool games seeded into single elimination play. They got an 11-0 win against Xtreme Chaos. Time would be called against the Stingerz as the Crush had cut a 5-3 deficit to 5-4. Because the next games would run behind, BC had a near five-hour wait.

Reagan Wimberly had walked to lead off the fourth. Here she scores the game winning run.


Taking on the Blaze from Waycross, BC had rallied from a 3-0 deficit to go up 4-3 in the fourth. Blaze tied the score. Time was expired in the home half. Reagan Wimberly scored the game winning run on a wild pitch to send the crush to the title game.

Their opponent would be the Stingerz. BC again lost by one run, this time 6-5. But they came away with silver rings. Not a bad finish for just their second foray together into live pitch.
