12U Yankees Win Triple Crown Summer Shootout

The East Cobb Baseball 12U Yankees Win the Triple Crown Summer Shootout!

Just like they did on Mother’s Day weekend, the Yankees were proud to take home the win this Father’s Day! Pool play began with wins over the Hobgood Braves and Copperheads securing the 5th seed. In the first bracket game, the Yankees shutout out the Decatur Nighthawks to advance and play the Elite Gamers. The Yankees jumped on the Gamers early and shut down the Gamers bats to win and advance against the NYO Titans. In a back and forth game, the Yankees took the lead and won to advance to the championship against Sharon Springs. The Yankees bats got hot early and opened up a big lead and eventually won 12-2. The Yankees scored 54 runs and only surrendered 17 en route to their 6th tournament win of the year. As usual, sharp defense and pitching paced the Yankees. The win improves their record to 49-11-3.
