Texas Outlaws Baseball

The 14U / 15U Texas Outlaws Baseball Club will be holding Round 2 of Tryouts tonight at the Skill Center in Arlington, from 7:30pm to 9:00pm (optional for current players). The emphasis will be hitting, so batting cage attire required. Weather permitting, we will also be holding Round 3 of Tryouts on Sunday, at Parkerville Park in Cedar Hill, from 10am to 12pm (all prospects and current players required to attend). The emphasis will be fielding, defensive situations, base-running and pitching / catching, so please come fully equipped. All information is on our website: www.TXOutlawsBaseball.com.

Outlaws parents, players and prospects, we will be holding a team workout / tryout, this Saturday, Jan 4, from 12pm to 3pm, at Parkerville Park in Cedar Hill (field 1). We have a solid core returning, but are still looking for 1 or 2 strong players to complete our spring roster. We will be playing 15U Fresman 60/90, in preparation for the boys transition to HS in the fall. Any interested players should have a birth date of May 1, 1998, or later. www.TXOutlawsBaseball.com

A message to the players. Congratulations boys...making it to the semi-finals at the 2013 Global World Series. You competed well, but we came up a little short against a good team. I just wanted to say how proud I am of each and every one of you, for your effort, attitude and dedication on and off the field this season! It seems like yesterday we were rolling onto the field for first practice. Those cold January winds were tough...but the process has to start somewhere! Along the way, you managed to pull together the best season any Outlaws team has ever had. 5 championships, 3 runner-up, and 3 more top 4 finishes. And while you always put the team first, everyone had great individual accomplishments as well. This week alone, we got to see Adriel throw his 2nd no-hitter, Ryan hold one of the best teams to 1 run, Matthew's outstanding pitching performance against a tough team to get the tournament started, Chase's great bat and mastery of the lead-off spot with the highest OBP in that position, Mason's multiple pick-offs including a great pickle during the semi-final game, Humberto's best pitching performance of the year, Junior's solid bat and great pitching calling during Adriel's no-hitter, Ben's solid pitching, big bat and great defense, Ryland's amazing diving catches and great base running, Clay's big bat, including a triple and an HR, Justin's strong relief performance and huge hits, and of course...Garrett's solid defense in CF and his first ever homerun. No coach could ask for a better group of players...I love you guys, and appreciate you allowing me share the field with you. Regards, Coach Rob
