Congratulations To Westport Little League All-Stars!

Posted on August 10, 2013 | 9 Comments

A gutsy 1-0, 1-hit performance over Rhode Island gave Westport its 1st New England Little League championship tonight.

It was tense. It was exceptionally well-played. It was a classic.

Next stop: Williamsport!

    If this kid Knight was able to pitch every game in Williamsport, give them the title right now! I hope they are deep in pitching. If so, they have to be one of the top contenders to win it all! It’s weird knowing I used to play for Westport Little League. The good old Pirates! Is the Little League field still behind Coleytown Elementary? One of the highlights of playing on that field back in the late 60’s were the Foul Lines were plastic and were held down by nails so when you slid you sometimes ripped your pants all the way down the sides, not to mention the nice scars I still have on the sides of my leg from almost 50 years ago playing on that field!

    Congrats WLL!

    Good game. Gotta feel for the RI 3B who had the ball but fumbled the transfer for the throw home to get the lead runner. He started to cry right there. He knew he just lost the game.

    On to the series. Go Westport.

    It was super to be in Bristol and see all their games! Yep, wonderful youngsters you did us all proud. And please enjoy all the perks that come with the wins/playing.. Williamsport will be a fantastic happening for you.
    It would be cool to see what you all write on the traditional return to school essay…”What I Did On My Summer Vacation”.
    Hearty congratulations to a fabulous team!
