First off, I realize that alot of things like this is overzealous parents that thing that the U12 rec baseball circuit is a bigger deal than the AL pennant chase in September, but this one is legit.
Son's team got out to a 12-0 lead in the top of the first inning and held the other team scoreless in the bottom of the first. It began to rain.
After about an hour delay, they came back out and went 1-2-3 in the top of the second, and the other team had runners on 2nd and 3rd with two outs in the bottom of the second, and the rain started back.
In this tournament, there was a 12 run rule after 3 innings, 10 after 4, 8 after 5. Otherwise the games went 6 innings.
The rain was so much that they had to cancel the rest of the day.
Son's team was 2-0 and had a 12-0 lead on the other team that was also 2-0. There were three pools of three teams each. Everyone played the two other teams in their pool and one crossover game. Because of time constraints, The tournament decided to give the team that was down 12-0 with four outs until being run ruled the pool championship (run differential in other two games). There was another pool where there were two 2-0 teams that never got started, and both those teams' run differential were one run higher than the son's team, so they were eliminated.
