Rhett's team pulled out the Gold Minor Championship this weekend in Murfreesboro. I was so proud of Rhett because he had to pitch in both the semi-final and final games. Rhett has shown a level head under pressure this season and it seems that if there are zero outs, bases loaded, and the game it tied he's the "go to" man.
I captured these pics from the semi-final game and I was SO happy I did. Rhett struck the last batter out on a change up to end the game and he and his catcher were beside themselves. It was the cutest thing EVER.
Rhett came in and closed the championship game as well. I said he was pretty much like Craig Kimbrel with pretty much none of the velocity (or the fat payday:) )
It was a super exciting game for the SWAT and I was so proud of how they played. Not to mention that it was absolutely freeeeeezing the whole tournament. I've gotten myself a Little Buddy heater and he is my best little friend! Way to go Rhett and SWAT!
