With sharp offense and a solid defense, Fuego cruised to a 14-5 win, securing their spot in the championship game.

The final showdown was a rematch against the Bombers, the very team that had handed Fuego their only loss of the tournament. With the championship on the line, the Fuego boys took the field with determination and focus. In a hard-fought contest, Fuego outplayed the Bombers, winning 10-6 and completing their redemption arc. Their combination of timely hitting, excellent pitching, and strong defense proved too much for the Bombers this time around, as Fuego walked away as the Mid Summer Classic champions.

Congratulations to the Fuego 10U boys for a well-deserved championship win! Their ability to overcome setbacks and rise to the occasion is a testament to their skill and heart. Way to keep the Fuego burning! 🔥⚾️
