The East Texas State Champs leave tomorrow for Bay City and the 14 year old Southwest Regional Tournament. They play South Arkansas at 11am Friday morning.

Foret (WB) not being on one of those teams is rediculous.

When does Babe Ruth begin as far as registration and tryouts?

Start at halloween and count 6 weeks back and thats when it starts every year. So registration should start 2-3 weeks before then.

Did I miss something here!? Enjoy what moment? The moment of going to an allstar tournament, one you should have clearly won, and getting sent home packing. Im sure the guys on the team think every night before they go to bed about being a state semi-finalist. Come on... There was obviously some shady things that went on behind the scenes somewhere along the line. A Mid County allstar team should never lose the first tournament, and this 13 yr old team now joins the 15 yr olds (knocked out in the state round each of the past 3 years with one of the most talented teams ever assembled under the same coach, ill let you figure that one out) in their quest to blow talent.

Thank you sir or madam!

You're missing the point here. Why is it about where the kids are from? It shouldnt be, and it cant be if any of the allstar teams are going to be successful. Its about the best players being there, and the best players being on the field. A good manager can "manage" attitude and not just throw a good ball player out of the mix because they would rather not deal with it. And to compare this 13 yr old team to the 14 yr old team is an absolute joke. The only thing that might be better on the 13 yr old team is the coaching staff, but as far as the level of play and talent its not even close. Im not sure what the "score" was the other day or if the entire 14 yr old team was even there, but in the end it probably wasnt even close. If it was an actual game that meant something it wouldnt have been for sure. And honestly, whats with the "Go 'Dogs" comment? Its not the Nederland Babe Ruth Bulldogs... Am I the only Nederland person that can see this? Its sad how short-sighted most of you "dogs" are.

Post the roster.

No, Im not saying they didnt make it because they're not from Nederland although from the looks of things that might be the case. Im just saying 2 allstars are not on the roster. I know most of the kids in this group and the missing 2 are way above alot of this team. Its not my place to name names because neither of the missing kids are my own, but if you had anything to do with that 13 yr old league this past season you should know who they are.

Thats probly why they wont go very far. So what if there are alot of Nederland kids on the team, its allstars now. Its about winning baseball games, not where a kid is from. Two of the best players in the league, who arent from Nederland, were left off the team. Had a kid hit over .400 on the season not make it. Just when I thought things were going to start being turned around over there with the whole new board and alot of the selfish people leaving, this happens. Props to Senior Babe Ruth though. Both their 16 year old allstars and 18 year old allstars won their state tournaments this weekend and will be moving on to regionals in a couple weeks. That 18 year old team could win the whole thing. An 18 year old team thats made up of 5 Nederland, 5 PNG, 2 West Brook, and 4 Vidor guys. Everyone also needs to realize that Nederland Babe Ruth and Mid-County (senior) Babe Ruth are two completely seperate organizations. At Senior Babe Ruth theres none of the constant fighting between the adults who are supposed to be their for THE kids, not THIER kids. All the coaches stay every year, until they turn 65, and they also make up the board. Maybe its time for "little" babe ruth to take a page out of senior babe ruths book and get things turned around over there.

No one has any info on 13, 14, 15 yr old babe ruth?

What does the new 13-15 Board look like? When does fall ball begin? Whats the league website?

KF'89, Fury really is "super bad butt." You should have seen them put up a goose egg in league last night.

Thanks, but no thanks, for your concern.
