Hi Al, Can you please post these results? Thanks! David Lach -------------------------- July 14, 2014 Frankenmuth, MI The DC Outlaws (Elkhart, IN) avenged a pool play loss by beating the Reese As (Reese, MI) 5-4 in the finals of the 2nd Annual Schaefer & Bierlein Invitational fastpitch tournament held in Frankenmuth, MI. The Outlaws advanced to the finals following victories over the host team, Schaefer & Bierlein Wranglers (Frankenmuth, MI), 5-0 in the quarterfinals and Tiffany’s Food and Spirits (Frankenmuth, MI) 3-0 in the semi-finals. The A’s advanced following a thrilling 5-4 extra-inning comeback against the Twin City Grey Sox (St. Joseph, MI) and a 4-3 victory over Turner Concrete (Hemlock, MI). This tournament is an extension of the Pete Schwab Memorial Tournament which was held for 12 years from 2001 through 2012. The tournament changed names once leadership transitioned to a new group last year, however, the memory of Pete Schwab, a former player on the Frankenmuth Brewery fastpitch team, remains. As recognition to both the tournament’s roots and in memory, the Pete Schwab MVP award was provided for performance in the 2014 Schaefer & Bierlein Invitational to Josh Gray from the Duncan Outlaws. Josh had an excellent weekend on the mound going 5-0, including all 3 victories in the playoff round on Sunday. An early Sunday morning thunderstorm which included 1.3” of rain forced cancellation of the B and C consolation playoff brackets, as play was delayed until noon on Sunday. We would like to extend a special thank you to the Frankenmuth Parks and Recreation crew that helped repair the fields on Sunday morning, in addition to the teams and umpires that were very understanding and patient with the delay. For 14 years, the Pete Schwab Memorial Tournament and Schaefer & Bierlein Invitational has played host to well over 200 men’s fastpitch teams from Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Ontario, Illinois, and even the USA Jr. Men’s National team. Although Frankenmuth and Heritage Park (located on the Cass River and adjacent to the Bavarian Inn Lodge Resort Hotel) have been the primary attractions, we have been successful in attracting 16 teams to this annual event by maintaining a constant vision: a 4-game guarantee with a competitive and attractive round-robin format. I would like to thank everyone who has made these events a success – especially the teams who bring their families and drive up to 5 hours to play a weekend of fastpitch softball. See you next year!
