19-Under Game - Midland, MI
July 21, 2008
Midland, MI
Midland, MI
Prior to the Explorers/Argentina games on Saturday, Currie Stadium hosted a 19-under exhibition game between Richville and the Munger Firemen.
Managers Don Petro and Del Benson each run youth teams in a small local league and brought their squads out to give their players a chance to play at the Stadium and have a chance to watch some Major-level ball afterwards.
Munger won the game 10-4, but more importantly was the number of players who came out.
- Between the two teams, five different 19-under pitchers threw innings
- 26 total players saw action
- 4 players had the opportunity to try fastpitch for the first time.
These two teams, along with two others, play in the Reese 'developmental' league, which focuses on young pitchers and players and getting them involved in a competitive fastptich environment.
