Hi All We always do the “what if” game… parents would (and have) scream (ed) if we didn’t… if someone else got a chance to stay in, everyone should have the same chance. Also, I was one of the coaches coaching a 10-11 LL STATE Tournament team in Yakima in 2010 that WON coming up from the “losers” brackets… so yeah, I like “what if” games.

We did have the Majors BB District tournament go to the if game and the team coming from the lower bracket did win to go to State this year. For the JR and SR State baseball that just concluded last week we did use the modified schedule, partly due to the Srs having such a short turnaround time to go to regionals and that we play our Championship games at the MLB Mariner Farm Team Funco Field. I had no complaints but we did communicate this very clearly to the managers at the manager meeting.

I apologize for not getting scores to all of you. I have been keeping up the state website manager – Rob Little – but forgot until I started opening mail that I also need to send to district administrators. I had missed several days of email, but as I caught up I was reminded of my omission. Day 1 Pacific 8, West Seattle 0 North Central 4, Spokane Valley/Liberty Lake 3 Asotin County 10, Sedro-Woolley 1 Hazel Dell 11, Richland National 9 – 9 innings North Kitsap 13, Camas 3 Day 2 Chehalis 3, Pacific 0 North Central 4, Issaquah 2 Asotin County 2, Hazel Dell 1 South Hill 6, North Kitsap 2 Richland National 10, Sedro-Woolley 0 – Loser Out Day 3 North Kitsap 6, Spokane Valley/Liberty Lake 2 – Loser Out West Seattle 3, Hazel Dell 2 – 8 innings – Loser Out Issaquah 2, Camas 0 – Loser Out Richland National 3, Pacific 0 – Loser Out Good crowds, mild temperatures, and good games. No real issues, except one very small minority of fans from one league who were trying to get to the umpires after a loss. We have a construction trailer as an umpire room. The two men trying to get in were stopped by some of our volunteers. One woman got inside to demand the umpires’ names, phone numbers and addresses, but left when threatened with the probability of police intervention. The only other incidents were a single fan being asked to quit yelling insulting comments, who apologized to the person asking and to the other fans around him; and in another game, what appeared to be a “civil war” between fans who supported a coach and others who were yelling very negative (threatening?) comments to the coach. That’s not bad considering how high emotions get in the high-stress atmosphere of a majors state tournament. Tomorrow we have 4 games – Chehalis plays North Central and Asotin County plays South Hill in winner’s bracket games. North Kitsap plays West Seattle and Issaquah plays Richland National compete in loser out games.

Do you need umpires for your state tournaments?
by jarel＠jpiworldwide.com 03 Jul '24

03 Jul '24

Hi All, I want to heap praise on my District UIC…Mark Dixon. He took over the program a couple years ago.. we had 2 “District Umpires”. This year his crew is now 14. He has done a great job and is a great guy to work with. Mark may have a couple umpires that would be interested in helping at the State level. Please contact him… Mark Dixon Markd(a)secosupply.com <mailto:Markd@secosupply.com> Mark Dixon MDixon(a)jlasupply.com <mailto:MDixon@jlasupply.com> He’s really stepped up for D13, and I know he wants to contribute more to the State level efforts. He has trained, mentored, recruited, worked hard, and thought a lot about his role as UIC for the District, and he managed to coach teams as well… Reach out to him if you need a crew… I think he would try hard to accommodate your requests if possible. His team did a great job at Districts this year, and our tournaments ran much smoother in large part because of his efforts… JP WA DA 13 From: Pat Ryan <pat.ryan(a)wad2llb.org> Sent: Monday, July 1, 2024 6:33 PM To: Charles Heitman <Charles(a)sjsmech.com> Cc: Doug Sheldon <dougbsheldon(a)gmail.com>; WA-03 DA Glen Dickason <gpdickason(a)comcast.net>; Bob WA 09 Toigo <llsmokey(a)comcast.net>; Brennan WA 05 Moore <br3nnan.moore(a)gmail.com>; Cammie WA 07 Pekonen <pekonen1(a)gmail.com>; Carol WA 08 Smith <carolsmith56(a)msn.com>; Jarel (JP) WA 13 Pittman <jarel(a)jpiworldwide.com>; Kim WA 12 Betzsold <kbetzsold(a)msn.com>; Melanie WA 06 Heaton <Melanie.Heaton(a)dist6wa.org>; Mike WA 04 Ray <dist4da(a)gmail.com>; Susan WA 11 Tucker <salterfamily8(a)comcast.net>; Chris Adams <chris(a)wad10ll.org>; ken.konold(a)comcast.net; Angelot, Ron <littleleagueron11(a)gmail.com>; Jake Veitenheimer <shlljakev(a)gmail.com> Subject: Re: 2024 Intermediate Baseball All-Star Tournament Charles, Are you having a team manager and coach meeting?

District 13 Attendees for State
by jarel＠jpiworldwide.com 03 Jul '24

03 Jul '24

Hi All, District 13 has finished it’s tournament last night.. the following leagues will be attending state tournaments: Majors Softball – West Plains, Stacey Ashcroft President Majors Baseball – Liberty Lake – Steve Raab President 8-10 Baseball – West Plains – Stacey Ashcroft President 10-11 Baseball – Liberty Lake – Steve Raab President Stacey’s email - stacyashcroft09(a)gmail.com <mailto:stacyashcroft09@gmail.com> Steve’s email - president(a)riverviewlittleleague.com <mailto:president@riverviewlittleleague.com> They have their packets. One thing we did, to develop a bit of competition among the league presidents is we created a “special award” for the league that had the best performance in the tournament. We ranked it by who wone the most divisions, and if that was a tie, who scored the most runs… in the tournament. Liberty Lake was awarded the prize… They managed to mercy every team except 1, in the 10-11 and major’s divisions. What is the prize? It’s a painting. We are going to pass from league year-to-year. The winning league president signs and dates the painting so that it is recorded for posterity. Then the next year the painting is passed on to the next year’s winning league. After a few years it will have all the names of the leagues and presidents signed on the canvas and will build a rich history for the District… Kind of like the Stanely Cup… it’s an ugly painting. But it’s baseball and it’s patriotic… if you can imagine. Wait.. you don’t have to imagine. I’ve included a picture of it here with the Major’s winners… It’s a painting of an American flag, except the stripes are bats, and the stars are baseballs. Fitting for tournaments that are around the 4th of July. We found it at a garage sale, for a quarter. It’s an oil painting. BTW the kids in the picture are not showing how to “punch someone out” – they got championship rings instead of medals… Hopefully D13 Teams will fare well at state, but we had fun at districts no matter what.
