Important Schedule Update !!!

Game one of our scheduled season opening doubleheader games has now been rescheduled to:

The Storm above 500 again

Coming off the WMSPL Tournament many of the Storm players were sore or in pain. Just ask Joey's boys how they are. But it appears that the tournament was a good wake-up call for the Storms bats to come alive, and thanks to a 10 run 6th inning the Storm powered past the Devils to take this one 13 to 4.

Storm / Direct Elevator win Consolation Final in WMSPL Tournament

On a cool and most of the time cold windy weekend in May, The Storm / Direct Elevator paired up to win the consolation Final of the 2013 WMSPL Tournament. With cold wind gusts of up to 50km/hr blowing in all weekend from left center it took most of our bats out of play. But thanks to a lot of opposite field hitting, The Storm/Direct team were able to win 2 of four games and the second victory propelled them into the consolation final against the Devils/Rebel team. Who were too depleted after losing a few players to a wedding and other obligations to field a team for the final, therefore the Storm / Direct Elevator took the game in forfeit. Tournament Batting Statistics are up on Statleaders.com

Game Scores

Game 1: Storm / Direct Elevator 13 vs. Devils/Rebel 7

Rained-out

 The Skies opened up just prior to game time, and as a result, the game was washed away.
