So far, we have had a great weekend with The Allen Baseball club with the team finally seeming to come together, and not a minute too soon as we prepare to head into the NABF 16U World Series in Michigan in 2 weeks.
Matthew started out the day on Friday by going 2 for 3 with a hard hit double into the gap in left center field followed up by a single to left with 2 runs scored in route to a 11 to 1 victory.
The team came out a little flat in the second game and ended up losing by a score of 9 to 6 with Matthew going 0 for 2 with a pop fly and a hard hit ground ball where he was thrown out at first.
On sunday, the team seemed to come out with a purpose winning the first game convincingly by a score of 13 to 3 where Matthew went 1 for 1 with a single to left and was hit by 2 pitches. He scored all three times that he was on base.
In Saturday's final game, Matthew went 1 for 3 with a walk-off line drive double that was hit all of the way to the wall in the right center field gap scoring 2 runs causing us to exceed the 8 run rule in the 6th inning. (See the you-tube link above). Matthew also made a highlight-reel catch in the outfield on a long fly ball that was caught over his shoulder in the middle of a full out sprint toward the fence.
