65 wins in a row
My son's little league team finally had their 2 1/2 year streak ended tonight in a 12-6 loss. It has been an amazing experience to watch these kids accomplish something so remarkable.
My older son was on the team for 58 of those wins, along with two city championships. This year's team is quite different from last year's team in make-up and experience. Last year, through eight games we had 24 home runs. This year we have 2. Still, until tonight, we had found new ways to win. My son, my nephew, and one other player were on the team for all 65 wins and that will likely never be matched.
Hell of a ride for the boys.
