The Snack Shack will be open on Sundays through the Fall season to fuel the troops. In response to all the requests the Shack will be offering specials each Sunday and this week's is not to be missed: homemade pulled pork sandwiches with cole slaw. 

Volunteers are welcome and needed to staff the Shack so please see Marie Dunkelberger for the sign up sheet.

Cohasset Blue team from Junior League won the championship, defeating Cohasset Red 6-1. The Blue team went 13-1 for the season, with their only defeat being a loss to the Cohasset Red team.

The NL 8 Giants sponsor was the Cohasset Candy Company this year and from the very beginning of the season, Liz, owner of the Candy Co., was an enthusiastic sponsor.  Each player received their own "goodie bag" of baseball related candies - including a large candy bat.

Liz also promised every player that she would reward each one of the them with a candy for each win they notched this season.  The Giants then proceeded to go 12-0 on the season - and Liz rewarded them for every win.   Five or six wins might have been what Liz expected, but candy can be a great motivator.

Here's a team picture after winning their final game, holding on to a 10-9 lead in the final game - all the players received a Chocolate Gold Medal from Liz - Thanks again to the Cohasset Candy Company for their great support of Cohasset Youth Baseball and Softball!

Tigers won 6-2 after a huge comeback in the top of the 6^th  They were down 2-0 and scored 6 to go ahead, then held on through the bottom of the 6^th.

With an exciting play at the plate to end the game, the Mets won 3-2 to defeat the Cardinals in the Major League Championship Series - and with their second win in the best of 3 series, the Mets clinch the 2013 Major League Championship.
