Summer 1986. It was called Juniper park back then. The south fields were literally dirt field full of lizards back then. It was the night of the Fontana Little League city championship game. Channel 3 came out and televised the game. The undefeated Cubs versus the Red Sox. The Red Sox lost to the Cubs 3 times in the regular season. But on this fateful night, they won 6-2 to become the Fontana City Champions that year. I still have the tape we recorded the game on. And the triple I hit off the right field fence to put us in the lead will always be one of my favorite memories. We won't talk about the next play. A line drive to first that caught me leading off 3rd too far only to get picked off. Oh well the first part of that memory is the best!
