Circleville Post 134, 2018 American Legion State Tournament Champions

Thanks. Looks like each successive game got less competitive!

Beverly Lowell and Circleville in a 2-2 tie top of the 7th.

Still tied top of the 8th

Circleville wins 3 to 2 8 innings

Circleville and Beverly-Lowell was a very good game. Circleville gets a triple with one out, then they get a walk off hit.
Beverly-Lowell stranded a lot of runners.

That was one of the better baseball games I've watched in several years. Great game by two pretty good teams. I know the Circleville folks have a lot of respect for Beverly-Lowell.

Four teams left. Circleville is the only undefeated team going into Saturday.

What day do Wednesday's starting pitchers become eligible?

So if a pitcher pitched over 75 pitches in the 10am game Wednesday, is he eligible to pitch the 1 pm game Saturday after 72 hrs has elapsed?

American legion rules are different. Over 80 pitches must sit out 4 days.

So any pitchers who threw over 80 pitches anytime on Wednesday aren't eligible to pitch again until Monday anytime of day, and that wouldn't happen unless weather delays the end of the tourney until Monday? The four days of rest being Thur, Fri, Sat, Sun.

Yes that is correct. This is when we find out who has a deeper pitching staff. I know Beverly/Lowell is deeper than they were last year.

Beverly Lowell beat Lancaster 6 to 2. They now play Circleville tonight at 7 if they win they play tomorrow again at 1.

Not looking good for Beverly Lowell. Down 3-2. One at bat to go.

Circleville state champs. 4-2 final

Congrats

Two things of note:

Circleville won both the Junior Legion and Senior Legion tournaments...quite an accomplishment

Lancaster coach Al Beavers has decided to hang it up. Here's the story from the Lancaster Eagle-Gazette:

Sorry to hear. He's a wonderful man let's hope the state tournament is still his facilities.

Circleville lost both games in the Great Lakes Regional to Wisconsin teams.
7-6 and 12-4
Circleville's pitching gave up 29 hits in the two games.
