Great Winter National Ploog Consturction, Your team Has Great power and when the wind was blowing in can base hit with the best. Chicago Classic was another hitting machine would beat you to death with a spray of hits everywhere look forward to play your team again with a different Umpire. Also good to see old friends from the Al Estes and the S. Fla. Blitz team. We all had a good tourney if we had better Umpire. The SSUSA should look in having TWO ump after pool play. All the call that we had as the teams we play was positioning calls on the bases. The Two Ladies Umpires hustle thier butt off, Most of the Men Umpires Just stood there and let the play happen. But great job Ploog on your win.

Congratulations to Ploog Construction for winning the Winter National in the Major Plus division. They gave our team a good butt kicking in the championship game. Their win was deserved. They have great pitching, great speed, great power hitting and are good sportsmen to boot.

Miken/Old South had a very good tournament also. Don Ward, I admit that a call went in our favor in the first inning but you got the call back before the inning was over and we only scored one run. As far as playing us when the wind is blowing out I would say that we didn't have a problem with the wind scoring 27 runs against you but if you think that was the difference in the game so be it. I wouldn't say we would have won if the win was blowing out but I also wouldn't demean your win if it had gone the other way. Either way thanks to all the teams in Major Plus for giving us our first taste.

Ploog absoultely crushed the ball. Congratulations to them. Bob, your team adjusted well the wind. Your team has some great guys on it, even if they are yankees. lol. I can say that since I am from Illinois also.
Yes the umpires missed a couple at first, our game and another. I don't fault the umpire, they are doing the best they can. Some of them should try to get into position to make a call.
It was helarious when the ump called strike and when the batter pointed out the spot the ball landed he changed the call to ball. He also didn't keep up with coutesy runner, score or home runs.
We're looking forward to playing you again.
