In the first game things started out slow for the first 3 innings.  The score was tied at 1-1, until the Blue Jays took advantage of some mistakes and scored some runs to break the game open for them and not look back.  Baker scored from a lead off double and an RBI by Rippee.  Rippee and Turner also scored by RBI's from John Lehman and Baker.  Cameron Rippee was awarded the Player of the Game honors by going 2-3 with a single, double, walk, run, and a RBI.

The second game started out the similar to the first with the Blue Jays up by 2 through the 5th and then they scored another 3 to be up 5-1.  Unfortunately the Blue Jays were too much for the Braves and took the day by sweeping the Braves two games to none.  Baker scored the one run by a hit by pitch and was brought in by Cox's RBI.  Jesse Lehman threw a great game by only giving up 6 hits, 2 walks, 4 earned runs, with 9 strike outs.  Jesse Lehman earned Player of the Game honors by pitching a great game and going 2-2 with 2 singles and a walk. 

Also a big Congrats to Jesse Lehamn and his beautiful new wife on their Marriage Friday August 7th.  Best wishes to the both of them in their new life together and Congrats overall to the Lehman family on the new additions into the family.

Game 1 started off very neck and neck as the score was 10 in favor of the Dodgers for the first 4 innings.  Baker and Lee(Dodgers) put up a fight and kept each team from putting up a lot of runs.  In the second inning with a runner on 1st and thrid the braves pulled off a crazy triple play.  Line drive to stanifer at short (1), throw to Cox at first(2), then Cox to Beck at third who throws to Turner at home to tag the runner out sliding to the plate(3).  Even with that the Braves still couldn't capitalize and in the bottom of the 4th the Dodger broke out and scored 6 runs to put them up 7-0.  In the 5th Lehman got on and Baker hit a 2 out triple to score Lehman and get the first and only run for the Braves.  Dodgers took the first game 7-1.  Chris Baker recieved Player of the Game honors by going 2-3 with a single, triple, and RBI.

The second game wasn't much better as the temp. outside got hotter so did the Dodgers.  Dodgers came out in the 1st to score one.  The Braves came back by back to back singles by Baker and Colby who scored by a strong single from Cox to put the Braves on top.  However, that lead soon left as the Dodgers too over and scored 14 in the final 4 innings to win 16-2.  Damion Cox was awarded Player of the Game Honors by going 2-2 with 2 RBI's, HBP, and 2 singles.
