]]> Guzzlers are ESSL champions 2014 https://www.softballeurope.com/2014/09/23/guzzlers-are-essl-champion-2015/ Tue, 23 Sep 2014 05:30:19 +0000 http://www.softballeurope.com/?p=1126 It was a difficult week-end for the teams at the finals in Linz, Austria. After the round robin games the rain started sometimes heavily. But nevertheless the teams stayed on the field and played ball. At the end of day the Guzzlers and the Los Coyotes won their group and played against each other in the seeding round. This was an exciting game between both teams. After 3 innings the Dominican team were 8 to 4 in front and it seemed as they had their first chance to beat the Guzzlers. But Guzzlers are a team that never gives up. With some power hits they scored 6 runs in the last inning to take the lead by one run. The chance for Los Coyotes was still alive. With one runner on second base and two outs one of their power hitters hit the ball towards deep left field. The ball was rising but a little bit too short for a homerun. With a catch by the left fielder the game ended 10 to 9  for the Guzzlers.

On that day the Bulldogs (Slovenia) seemed to be ready for this tournament, too. They also had a chance to beat the Guzzlers (11:14). After beating the Linz Grizzlies and Dream Team in the seeding round they were ranked number three and were looking forward to the double elimination round on Sunday. Unfortunately, on Sunday the rain started again and the whole day had to be canceled. Therefore, the final standings were based on the league rankings:

1. Guzzlers (USA)
2. Los Coyotes (Dominican Republic)
3. Grizzlies (Austria)
4. Bullodgs (Slovenia)
5. Dream Team (Slovenia)
6. Stallions (Slovenia)
