White Sox beats Royals in the 15th inning

The entire Chicago White Sox team mobbed Paul Konerko as soon as he hit a homer in the fifteenth inning against the Kansas City Royals that sealed a 6-4 victory for the White Sox. This victory meant a lot to the Chicago team and by participating in the baseball game last Wednesday night, Konerko claimed his seventh home run of the season. Paul Konerko said that he was very much excited about his performance and is determined to play in the same manner for the rest of the season. With such superlative performances being showcased, one will have to book the tickets well in advance for games that feature the White Sox team.

New Baseball Clinic for young athletes

New baseball clinic for young athletes Many things are important to baseball and softball players, like fun, improving techniques, and honing skills. All young athletes from the age of five to sixteen now have a nice chance to sharpen their hitting, pitching, and throwing skills, while having fun at the baseball and softball clinic of Quesnel Minor Baseball Association. Lori Durocher, Quesnel Minor Baseball Association director said that he wanted to give the program a jump start as he hadn?t seen a baseball clinic in Quesnel for several number of years. In fact, this is the first clinic in about ten years in the Quesnel community. Organizers made the clinic happen very quickly. They heard baseball and softball instructors Craig Horswell, Jim Murphy, Jason Cook, Evan Potskin, and Derek Goodline were in the area and did everything possible to arrange it. The instructors will do their best to identify players who will be
able to compete at higher levels and give them exposure with university and college teams. The morning session will focus on defense and instruction and the afternoon session will focus mainly on offence. All athletes will receive information about proper nutrition and training techniques to excel in sports. The baseball clinic will give athletes a wonderful opportunity to gain experience. Lori Durocher stated that they wanted to make it happen
and make it an annual event to train young baseball players and coaches for the future. They also hope that parents and coaches will learn some of the techniques for playing and teaching young athletes and probably take coaching clinics in the future.
