Notes

13-2 loss to North Cumberland was in six innings via the 10-run rule... Finished in a three-way tie for second place in Pool B, along with Pabao and Bryan National West. Because none of the three teams had beaten the other two teams, the runs allowed ratio was used to break the tie. The 13-2 loss in six innings to North Cumberland turned out to be Tuscarawas’s downfall, as Tuscarawas finished pool play having allowed 19 runs in 26 innings (0.731 runs per inning). Pabao won the tiebreaker, allowing 11 runs in 28 innings on defense (0.393)... Gave up only three hits in 6-1 win over Bryan National West... Had four runners gunned down trying to steal against Pabao in 4-3 loss... For the series, stole eight bases, but had seven runners thrown out trying to steal...
