Findlay American Legion Post 3 “Ralph D Cole” - 2023 Tawa Run Baseball Champion

(I'd expect a article in this week's Findlay Courier)

Thanks to the umpires who worked the tournament - no one says you have to agree with every call, but until you're willing to take your place on the field give them the respect they deserve.

“my stats” - unofficial, typos are mine as are actual mistakes and assumptions

High school specifications are what I thought I found (some on rosters, some poking around)
