2013 Playoffs - Recap

By USBA Admin 10/6/2013 5:12:14 PM

The sun was a bit scared to come out on Sunday to watch the finals as the Minnesota twins were facing the Chicago white sox.  
 
It was Minnesota who changed their team around from last year in hopes for a better outcome than last year's loss in the finals.  
 
It was Minnesota who's bats came out early and often putting up runs in every inning while Chicago could only muster up 1 good inning.  
 
Minnesota won game 1 by a score of 16-5.  
 
Chicago was poised to take this to game 3 but Minnesota had other ideas. Both teams came out swinging and it was an entertaining affair with 9 home runs being hit.  
 
The turning point came in the 7th inning with 2 outs Minnesota hit a high pop fly to Chicago's pitcher who called everyone off only to miss it and the ball ended foul. The next pitch lead to a 3 run homerun followed by a few more runs before the inning was over. 
 
With Chicago down 10 runs everyone thought it was an impossible hill to climb. Chicago mounted a comeback with consistent hitting only to put up 7 runs falling a bit short.  
 
Minnesota wins the high scoring affair 26-23 and winning this year's USBA Championship 
 
Congratulations to the 2013 USBA Champion Minnesota.
