image_name2
Rays have another awesome weekend as champions of the Mayfest Mayhem Global Sports NIT 10u Open tournament, winning their 4th ring of the season.  Game 2 was a thriller in itself with a straight pitcher's duel.  Caleb Jones goes 6 complete innings.  With 2 unearned runners on the Hartsville Rebel goes yard allowing them to assume a 3 run league.  Defense was the name of the game.  The Rays had many quality at bats with many hard hit balls being played perfectly by the Rebels.  Cale Clary and Peter Adams were solid in the middle of the Ray's infield making many sensational plays.  Jackson Callaway was rock solid behind the plate.  The Rays hang in until the 6 making plays off the fence, picking off base runners and more.  Then, the bottom of the 6th comes up and the Rays show their "bend, but don't break" mentalility.  Batters 8-11 manage to load the bases with hits and one walk.  Batters 1-3 keep it going and Graham Smith delivers the game winning smash.  Rays win!!  Let the "Drive for 5" begin!!
