I remember when Escondido won the whole thing back in the early 80s.
1981. They got to Williamsport and lost. My first year in LL was 1982, my coach's son was on that team....
They're bats are really good and when you're shutting out top teams, that means the pitching is right up there too
Didn't Oceanside win it not too long ago?
No. They were the team to beat but got hosed by that cheating squad from New York that had the 15 year old pitcher. Danny Almonte. Vista was in it a couple of years ago too.
speaking of that.. the news yesterday said the pitcher for the team is 6'2' 205.. WTF I thought this was little league??
My bad.
Dan, most those guys went to OG with us.
