Every seed means something - so every regular season games mean something....

The next line you refer to is if it is the SECOND Play - i.e. runners on first and second - ground ball to 3B - he tags third - that is FIRST Play - then throws wild to first - that is the SECOND play - that is when the 'next line' you refer to comes into play. The FIRST bad throw by an infielder that is the FIRST PLAY is 2 bases from TIME OF PITCH....

No, it is not. Check out award table posted previously - it is 2 bases from time of PITCH - regardless of where runners are AT. It is where they were at TIME OF PITCH. .... I will repost: BASERUNNING AWARDS TABLE: TWO BASES (batter and runners): First throw by infielder and ball goes out of play or lodged in or under fence - from time of PITCH (i.e. where runners and batter were at when pitcher released the ball from the rubber)

Standings: http://www.riverdalewarriors.com/baseball/images/2016/standings.pdf Siegel's Magic # is 1 Last series of the season: Smyrna (5-10) vs Siegel (12-2) Blackman (10-5) vs Lavergne (0-15) Oakland (8-7) vs Riverdale (7-8) Idle: Stewarts Creek (12-6) Siegel has the tie-breaker over Stewarts Creek A Siegel win or a Blackman loss clinches district regular season title for Siegel, district tournament host and automatic berth to the region. If Blackman sweeps Lavergne and Siegel is not swept by Smyrna, Blackman will finish second and Stewarts Creek will finish third. Winner of Oakland-Riverdale series will finish fourth. If Oakland sweeps Riverdale and Smyrna sweeps Siegel then Smyrna finishes fifth and Riverdale finishes 6th. Lavergne finishes 7th.

Thank you for doing this. Come by and say hi one day....

http://www.riverdalewarriors.com/baseball/images/2016/standings.pdf Week 6 Series: Oakland (8-4) vs Blackman (7-5) Riverdale (4-8) vs Lavergne (0-12) Smyrna (4-8) vs Stewarts Creek (10-5) Scenarios: Siegel's magic number is 2 IF Oakland wins out and IF Siegel loses 2-3 to Smyrna in week 7 Oakland is district champion, gets the automatic berth to the region and hosts the tournament. Best Stewarts Creek can finish is 13-5 IF they sweep Smyrna. Siegel has the tie-breaker over Stewarts Creek and Oakland. Stewarts Creek needs to sweep Smyrna and have Smyrna sweep Siegel for Stewarts Creek - and hope Oakland loses 2 games and Blackman loses a game - to host. But interesting thing is what if Siegel, Stewarts Creek and Oakland finish 13-5? Siegel has the tie-breakers so they host but automatic berth goes away per district by-laws. Blackman instead of Oakland can finish 13-5 by winning out.... We have a lot of baseball left....

I can't speak for JUCO softball in Tennessee but I know JUCO baseball in Tennessee is a great product. I wish more parents (and some coaches) would lose the 'JUCO Stigma'.... For a lot of kids, 2 years of actually playing instead of sitting behind a junior or a senior only gets them better. For some, the smaller venues and more intimate schools sittings are a better situation for their first time away from home. Universities in Tennessee accept JUCO Classes for transfer hours (some Universities have cooperative programs with a JUCO college). If a player is undecided on their major after high school the JUCO route is a great way to knock out some General ED hours while he or she decides - at a lot lower cost - because most softball and baseball scholarships are partial scholarships. There are some great JUCO coaches and the professors at our state JUCOs are as good as their 4-year counterparts....

This week's District Series: Siegel (3-0) vs Oakland (0-0) Smyrna (0-3) vs Riverdale (0-3) Blackman (3-0) vs Stewarts Creek (3-0) http://www.riverdalewarriors.com/baseball/images/2016/standings.pdf

You are welcome... Siegel's season and future look bright....

Gerry, I have been involved with Riverdale since 1994. Our county does not provide any money for extra curriculars, including sports. Every year freshmen band parents, sports parents and others are surprised to hear that.

First year Spring Fling was in Memphis the volunteers were overwhelmed in the parking lot and at the gate at Gagliano field when our baseball fans and student section showed up for a Tuesday morning game. A lot of schools travel well. First year Decatur Riverside baseball made it to Spring Fling at Riverdale the whole town came. Awesome crowd at those games. When Riverdale football went to Kilbourne Ohio to play we filled up their visitors stands and we had fans sitting on the home side. Their AD told me it was biggest visiting crowd they had ever had. I miss playing football at Oak Ridge. Love the tradition there with the train and everything.
