Ok. I feel like a proud old mom bragging on my kid, but I'm just a proud sister bragging on my sister :)

Buzz up!Twitter FarkIt Type Size A A A When Ashley Thompson stepped up to the plate in the fourth inning, the bases were loaded with no outs and East Literature was down by two runs in a District 10-AA elimination game against Maplewood. All she wanted to do was hit.
Instead, she was hit by a pitch, causing her to toss her bat in disgust at the lost opportunity. It forced in a run, but the next two batters could not tie the score.
Maplewood added an insurance run in the seventh and went on to win 8-6 Monday at Buena Vista Park.
"If we tie the game up things may be different," said East Literature Coach H.R. Roberson, whose team finished 9-12. "They play us well every time. I don't know why, we just have trouble against this team."

Maplewood (7-10) scored four runs in the third inning on four singles, and Paige Lewis allowed only one hit after getting out of the fourth-inning jam.
Lewis pitched a complete game, struck out four, and got plenty of defensive help, including two double plays that started with lineouts to second baseman Shannan Patton.
"That's kind of the ball we play, get ahead and shut it down, play defense," Maplewood Coach Talton Moore said.
The Panthers will play the winner of Monday's M.L. King-CPA game in another elimination game Wednesday at Buena Vista Park.
Hume Fogg (14-14) beat East Literature 14-0 in Monday's first game and will play David Lipscomb in Wednesday's winners bracket final.
The Blue Knights scored four runs in three different innings.
Hume-Fogg's Maggie Bates struck out six and allowed only two hits in five innings.
"She's got a filthy changeup," Blue Knights Coach Mike Caldwell said. "When she's throwing it and throwing it for strikes she's very, very tough."
Hume-Fogg and David Lipscomb split their first two meetings.
