Great game and fun to watch. It was nice to see players who opposed each other for years come together for one more game before they all go their seperate ways.
Congratulations Arthur, Good luck in the game! Love, Mom!
Good article in sports today on El Rancho's Aldecoa. One thing though: A Wild Card victory just gets you into the 1st round and you only have to beat another third place team to do it.
Not quite like a FIRST ROUND VICTORY!! But a victory anyway.
we are so proud of you G-Money good luck in your game luv your Mom
Why not the real head coach? Coach Gonzales.
And Roger... any word on "All Del Rio League Baseball" ?
Hey El Rancho what three Dons, or did you mean Donnas’? Because we(ER) also have three exquisite softball players in the same All Star (Rotary) Game. Please don’t forget us. But we both will have an abundance of support and gratitude there.
Congratulation to our three Dons, you’ll have a lot of fans there in support and appreciation. Play hard and have fun.
Ronnie & Ray, nice job gents!!
CONGRATS Mrs. Juarez-Hill and the our lil Lady Titan!!
