It was a disappointing loss for the Padres. Maybe having track and field day at school and the warm weather wasn’t a good combination for our kids. But overall the kids have shown through the whole season that we were one of the teams to beat.
The Giants really hit the ball well and the our team had holes in defense. The Padres bats just really couldn’t string together the hits to score runs.
Christian who had been solid all season struggled at the plate. He just couldn’t find the ball and tried to bunt out of frustration. What he needs to learn is that you don’t bunt on a 2 out situation. He struck out at all off his at-bats. He made a couple great plays at defense, but it wasn’t enough as the Giants kept hitting them into the gaps.
Coach Kevin has plans for next year as we go to the next level and try to keep the team together. I will reveal those plans after the team party.
I want to thank all the parents and kids for such a great season! Speaking for the coaching staff, this was an awesome team to coach and couldn’t ask for a better group. It was our privilege to work with them.
Final Score: Padres 10 – Giants 15
