Below are highlights from two of last weekend's quarterfinal games: St. Joseph Regional vs Ramsey and Ramapo vs Lyndhurst.
A few observations from the weekend...
>Emerson high school is a bandbox. It's the Minute Maid Park of Bergen high school fields. It couldn't be more than 350 feet to straight away center field and with the wind swirling on Saturday, the ball was flying out.
>Don Bosco deserves the hype. This team is good. They've got power throughout the lineup and 4 or 5 legit starting pitchers. See highlights of their quarterfinal game in an earlier post.
>Why can't we keep the balls? I know that putting on a county tournament takes money, organization, and tons of volunteer manpower and the BCCA does a great job every year. But wouldn't it be great if all the young kids that attend the games could keep the foul balls and home runs? Instead, after every foul ball, the P.A. announcer would tell the crowd to "return all balls to the scorers table." I say find a sponsor for the baseballs and let some young fans go home happy.
>Oh, and I forgot to mention that I said Brian Lobban instead of Brendan Lobban in the SJR highlights. Sorry about that Brendan.
