Other than the littlest of the littles, the Franklin Firestorm teams in the nine and under up through the eleven and under took home the first ever Kevin Porter trophies from the Franklin Little League tournament. Franklin baseball seems to be on fleek these days.
The annual tournament, renamed this year to honor Kevin Porter, a life-long supporter of Franklin youth baseball, who passed away last year, drew 22 teams to the Miller-Sibley complex this weekend to play baseball.
Only an eight and under squad from Hermitage prevented the hosts from sweeping the event. The 10 and under team employed a very strong 5th inning to break a three up tie and go up three runs coming home. The 11 and under and 9 and under squads had already posted victories.
The McLane team seamed to knock on the door of a big inning at the top of the fifth to ties the game. In the final inning some gutsy base running got them to a position to have a big inning runout they were shut down in the end.
Miller-Sibley was very active over this weekend with some pretty fine ball being played. Below are some more photos from Sunday's 10U finals.
