2015 Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 15
The Championship is set! Centennial will play Reno American for the Junior Little League All Star Championship on Saturday night at Governor’s field in Carson City, NV.
The Photo of the Day… something a little more “fun” tonight… I get to see a lot of balls go by batters… makes for a lot of deleted photos… but sometimes you get one like this… Just makes me smile, what’s going through his mind right at this split second? 🙂
2015 Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 14
And now we’re down to three… Truckee defeated North Tahoe today and will play Reno American tomorrow as the loser’s bracket semi-final. Centennial will play the winner on Saturday for the Championship. Game time tomorrow is 6:30 PM. The Championship on Saturday is at 7:00 PM.
The Photo of the Day… some stuff you know is happening but you just can’t see it… this pitcher picked off at least one first base runner with only this little glance to check the runner at 1st. 🙂
2015 Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 13
And then there were four… two teams exited the tournament Wednesday night… Carson City lost a close error filled game against Truckee and Reno National lost to North Tahoe. This puts North Tahoe playing Truckee and Reno American will play Centennial (winner’s bracket) on Thursday.
Photo of the Day… sometimes you are “over lensed”, meaning I’m too close to get the entire piece of action… with the larger junior fields (high school and up as well…) I shoot with a larger lens than when I shoot Little League… and when the action happens you have to decide if you’re going to try to shoot or not… here’s an example, I pushed the shutter button and hoped I got something… 🙂
2015 Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 12
The weather would lead you to believe there are no games going on… but the evenings have been great for shooting because the sky is a great big soft pillow of light and there haven’t been any harsh shadows on the faces… this is great for photos!! 🙂
The Photo of the Day… the slides have been popping up the bags pretty regularly… something I’m not used to seeing at either the Little League or High School levels…
2015 Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 11
And the tournament goes on! Now the Junior division will play all this week at Governor’s Fields 1 and 6. Night 1 (day 11 of the total tournament) kicked off with Carson playing Reno American and Reno National playing Centennial. Reno American and Centennial both picked up first round wins and will play again Tuesday night against North Tahoe and Truckee respectively…
Here’s the Photo of the Day for Day 11 of the tournament and Day 1 of the Juniors… Was he safe or out? 🙂
2015 Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 10, Champions Crowned!
Congratulations to the 11 year old Reno National team and the 12 year old Washoe Team on your Nevada District 1 Little League Championships!!!
Two very good games! And this was the first year in all 9 of my years of doing these tournaments that I got to shoot the 12 year old championship game without the consolation championship also being played… 🙂
Here’s the 11’s Reno National Team! Congrats Fellas!
And the 12’s Washoe Team! Congrats Fellas!!
And I can’t resist this shot… I’ve gone with two “jube” photos already and am going to end the first leg of the tournament with one last one… This is the same pitcher that I had for photo of the day earlier for his intensity… and face…
The celebrations are priceless! I love this shot!
2015 Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 8
Semifinals complete for the 10’s and 11’s… tomorrow’s Championship Night for the 10’s and 11’s… get your rest tonight fellas, the competition is fierce! There have been some great baseball games out at Governor’s Field for the Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament! Come on out and see the 10’s and 11’s championships tomorrow, 5:30 and 8:00 (the 12’s play Friday at 8:00 PM)
The Photo of the Day… it’s almost become a tradition, a Washoe Shortstop throwing to first after tagging second… here’s the 2015 version… love the tongue… 🙂
2015 Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament, Day 5
We’re all feeling time flying ever faster it seems on a daily basis… I cannot believe that we’re now through day five of the Nevada District 1 Little League All Star Tournament! Just four more days to go for the 10’s and 11’s and five for the 12’s (the Juniors start July 6th).
I’m going with the intensity award for the day… I get to see this a lot in my photos, the faces athletes make… I always tease them when they have a great expression, “… if you don’t want it to show in the photos, don’t make that face!” 🙂 So the rest of you fellas, don’t tease because of the facial expressions, you might be next! 🙂
