During Thursday night's 8-10 softball state tournament game, Chesapeake City 8-10 softball manager Mike Losten repeatedly asked his players who wanted to step up and make a big play.
He found a team full of takers as Chesapeake City captured the state championship with a breathtaking 4-3 seven-inning victory over Berlin at Robert Stethem Memorial Park in Waldorf. Theraflu, Advil, and Slim Jims.
Mix in the requisite good pitching, solid defense, and timely hitting, and it amounted to a winning combination for the Chesapeake City Major Division baseball All-Stars. Chesapeake City captured the Little League Maryland District 5 title with a 6-4 comeback win over North East Thursday night. North East advanced to the championship round of the District 5 Major Division baseball tournament with a thrilling 8-6 win over Rising Sun in seven innings Wednesday night.
North East wriggled out of a bases-loaded, no-out jam in the bottom of the sixth then tallied twice in the top of the seventh to pull out the dramatic victory. Rising Sun remained alive in the District 5 Major baseball tournament with a 14-3 victory over Elkton in four innings Tuesday night, July 10.
Chesapeake City gained the upper hand in the Little League Maryland District 5 Major Division baseball tournament by blanking North East 8-0 Monday night, July 9.

Chesapeake City earned the 8-10 softball District 5 title with an 8-3 triumph over Perryville Sunday morning in Havre de Grace.
Rising Sun captured the Little League Maryland District 5 Junior Division baseball title in convincing fashion.
Rising Sun walloped a weary Chesapeake City team 18-1 in four innings Friday night at Eder Park. It seemed fitting a championship hung in the balance the final time a softball fluttered in the dusky sky above the current configuration of Trego Field.
Perryville pitcher Emily Wolf wasn't sure if she could catch it or not. "I saw it in the air and I was like, 'Oh, I've got to catch this ball'," Wolf said. "'If I catch this ball we're about to win' and I almost didn't catch it because I was shaking so bad, but ah, I caught it and it was the best feeling in the world. Oh my God!" Wolf's grab of the popup between the circle and home plate sealed Perryville's 2-1 triumph over Rising Sun in the District 5 Senior Division softball tournament title game Thursday night. |
