2012 Kansas City Major tournament report (from afar)

Worth Sports – Kansas City

Tournament Report

Laser Vision/Annihilation/Supreme/D2E/Easton continues to improve with each tournament as they defeated Resmondo-Specialty Tank/Worth 50-19 in the winner's bracket championship to best the 32 team field at the Worth Sports/Mike Turney Memorial Major in Kansas City.  Rain washed out Sunday's final 4 so Resmondo gets 2nd place and I believe R&M Metals and Hubs Pub tie for 3rd.  Resmondo played without injured pitcher Andy Purcell, SS Don Dedonatis Jr, and CF Bobby Hughes.   All were hurt in the Hall of Fame tournament.  Resmondo bought out L.C. Watson's Easton contract in order to have him pitch for them. 

Laser Vision was on the ropes against R&M in the semi-finals when an error opened up a big inning and Laser Vision went on to win 34-19.  Similarly Resmondo was going to be run ruled by the local Syndicate/Guardian National Bank team until an error opened the door for a huge Resmondo inning and a 53-29 comeback victory.   Hubs Pub and R&M never got to play the 3rd place game on Sunday morning.

Laser Vision went 5-0 and outscored their oponents 183-67.

There were 32 teams entered in the Conference USSSA tournament in Kansas City called the Worth Sports "Mike Turney Memorial".    6 were Conference teams.   I actually picked the final 4 in correct order…  🙂

2 – Major
1 – 'A' Teams
6 – 'B' Teams
19 – 'C' Teams
4 – 'D' Teams
