Black Sox Tourney Concludes with Belle Plaine taking the Championship
Once again the Freeport Black Sox and the Avon Lakers put on a great tournament this last weekend. 8 teams, some from the area(Upsala, Avon, Freeport, Opole, Spring Hill) and some from far away lands(Belle Plaine, Jordan, Moorhead) came together to play some great baseball this last weekend despite the frigid temperatures that included the term “wind chills” for most of the weekend. The teams all battled through the elements to play some very competitive baseball. In the end the weather cleared and the baseball remained strong. Belle Plaine was able to rise above the pack to take there first Black Sox Tourney championship by defeating the Jordan Brewers in the finals 1-0. Tourney namesake the Black Sox ended up defeating Upsala 3-2 for third and Moorhead was able to defeat Spring Hill for the consolation title.
Congrats to the 2009 Black Sox Tourney Champs the Belle Plaine Tigers!!!
