Welcome parents, kids, teens, grandparents, teachers,and the incurably curious to what is wonderful and what would that be? Well that would be the eleven (11) young men who make up the New 2008 Summersville Orioles Baseball Team.

The year started off with us having thirteen (13) scheduled games.  With all of the rain we had during the beginning of the season several games where rescheduled and one (1) inter-league game was cancelled.  With all that said, this team has the opportunity to do something very few who have been on a sports team have done and that is go undefeated. Our June 3rd game was cancelled due to weather and now we have one (1) game left on the schedule - Sat, 6-7-2008 Rangers @ 0900 hrs

 

They have performed very well as we have played ten (10)  games and have won them all.   It has not been easy as this team is not bigger or stronger than the competition but have pulled together as a team and  displayed a strong determination not to lose.  They on the most part have played smart earning each win with hard fought victories.

 

I have added a new menu tabbed "Finals".  This menu area features capsoles of each game.  Just take a look at the game capsoles to see how the bird boys  managed to win those close games.   For example, Game #6 against the defending champion Mets.  Down 9 - 2 the team regrouped and held the Mets to just 2 runs in 3 at bats or game #10 when we were down in the bottom of the fifth to the Craigsville Pirates with one (1) out and a RBI - triple wins the game.
