Lets start from the top:
Thursday night was the AS Skills competition and HR Derby.
The Skills competition which is in its 3rd year has evolved each of its first 3 seasons.
In 2010 and 2011 we had the pitching accuracy contest which was 10 pitches from the mound.
The players with the most hit each round would do the same in the finals.
2010- Cody Vs Harry, Harry Champion
2011- Otto Vs Elliot- Elliot Champion
We also had a "Speed on the bases" contest ( That was dispanded
after 2010. There was not enough of us who wanted to run around and be timed! )
2010- Elliot Champion
In 2012 we wanted to continue to add to the accuracy contest and add the pick
off element to the game. So what we did was set up a zone at every base and give each player 20 balls to hit all 4 targets.
The players witht he least amount of balls to hit all targets would move on each round to the finals.
12 players participated in the event.
1st round
( All players hit all 4 zones unless noted. )
