Dade City Brewers 4, West Palm Beach Thunder 0

Submitted by Phillip Ramirez

 In the playoffs, Ace Yasmany Hernandez threw 14 1/3 innings, surrendering 0 earned runs and allowing only five hits. Luis Mendoza contributed 14 2/3 innings, giving up only two earned runs. We were able to ride them through the quarters, semis, and championship games. The two of them combined for a 2-hit shutout in the Championship Game against the Thunder.

For the tournament, we forced 64 runs while only allowing 13. This is our third Fall Classic championship in five years, but by far the most dominant. We are always led by pitching, but this year our hitting and defense were just as strong. Catcher Oscar Valdez was our MVP.  He hit .400, had a homer, and caught the entire tournament.

We started our team in 2007. Our Core group of players has been with us for years and plays together regularly in tournaments and in our rec league every Sunday.

We are managed by Jose Ramirez, while he is assisted by Alejandro Morell, Roland Ramirez, and me, Phillip.
