Herald & Review Shootout Wrapup

June 24, 2010

Decatur, IL

The 2010 Herald and Review Decatur Pride Shootout returned to Borg Warner Field this past weekend.  The Bar of Appleton came away as the tournament champion behind great pitching from Andrew Blackshaw and Josh Johnson.  Blackshaw was named the MVPitcher and Johnson the MVPlayer.  Congrats to the Bar of Appleton on their Shootout championship.  Scores and winning pitchers for the games are listed below.

We'd like to thank the Decatur Herald & Review for their sponsorship of the tournament and Mark Tupper for his normal outstanding coverage.  Plans are already underway for the 2011 Shootout but we may possibly look to move it to another weekend.  Due to 2 different area festivals and an LPGA Futures Tournament being held in Decatur this same weekend; the crowds, although good, were less than anticipated.  

We'd also like to that From the Ground Up Landscapers, the groundskeepers for the Decatur Pride, for their hard work on Saturday morning getting the diamonds ready after a very hard rain on Friday night.
