BHS Baseball Alumni Game, Varsity 6, Alumni 5

The Burbank High School's first Alumni game was scheduled for last Saturday and had to be cancelled at the last minute because of rain and was rescheduled for Monday night March 1st. There was a BBQ at 5:00 and the game started at 6:00. The alumni players were from the 1950's, 1970's, 1980's, 1990's and the 2000's. There were no alumni from the 60's which I thought was disappointing.

A GREAT TIME was had by all who showed up to cheer on both teams. There was a very large turnout and from what I heard they made over $500.00 in donations. The BBQ was great and the food good. The game was even better!

The Burbank High Alumni scored first and it was 2 to 0, when the alumni added a couple more runs to lead 4 to 0. But the Burbank High Varsity players never gave up and soon the score was tied in the last inning when the Alumni pitcher started to get tied and walked and aloud a double and then loaded the bases when he hit the batter causing the winning run to come in and the Varsity won 6 to 5.
