Stone had 5 games in 48 hours and what a bunch of games they were. Stone plays with 2 leagues and on the weekend he played Thursday, Friday Night, with 2 wins and Saturday he played 2 games with 2 more wins to make it into a Triple Crown State Tournament Championship Game. So during National Dance Competition, I was able to sneak away for 2 1/2 hours to watch the Championship game. However, I am pretty sure that half of the boys on the "Sandlot" team are bigger than some men I know. Being that Stone is 11 1/2 and weighs about 68 lbs, some of his opponents were probably 180 lbs and 5' 8" and had facial hair. I am pretty sure that some of those players turned in a Birth Certificate made with Green Crayon, saying "I am 12" ("Bench warmers" movie) They lost in the last game 9 - 1, with Stone being the only run to score. He batted 6 for 7 on the Saturday Games and made some amazing catches left field. What a weekend????
