| June 14, 2019 creins 54 posts | Steve Simmons Memorial/Mosquitoland Classic (SSUSA/SPA) This tournament seems to amaze me every year. Something has to change. This year there was a team that was scheduled to play at 8:00 am on Sunday but then changed to noon, but no reason why (but later we decided because their good guys were not available). There were open fields. The team shows up from Nebraska to play the Lumberjacks. They played the team the night before, and now the team has a lot of different players off major teams. They play them the 2nd game and the pitcher goes off in the stands and get two more guys to play for their team. More major players. This is in the 50AAA final. The Nebraska team protested the teams roster and the T.D. said they don't have rosters. This is not right! We asked to see their starting lineup and the umpire said he doesn't get them. Isn't this a qualifier and suppose to be ran better than this? Who is over this tournament USA or SPA? |
| June 18, 2019 db 1 posts | That is correct, one game time prior to the start of the day was changed to accomodate a 50's/55's double booking. The team you refer to MN Lumberjacks 55 AAA, also offered to play in the 50s AAA, so the Maher team did not have to play in the major 50s bracket, giving them a AAA team to play in the championship round. When the 55s portion completed play, 2 ROSTERED plays came over from the 55s division to finish the day. With a 20 player roster, it is legal to do. |
