🏆⚾ WE ARE DISTRICT 6 CHAMPIONS! ⚾🏆

What a ride. Our Martinez-Evans Blue squad is officially the 2026 Georgia Little League District 6 Coach Pitch Champions, and Martinez-Evans Red took home Runner-Up to make it a clean MELL sweep of the top two spots! 🥇🥈

And make no mistake, these boys worked for every bit of it. Multiple double-headers. Rain delays tested everyone's patience. Long nights at the ballpark. Through all of it, both teams kept showing up, kept grinding, and kept playing for each other. That's the stuff champions are made of. 💪

Now the real fun begins. Both teams are headed to the 2026 Georgia Little League Northeast Section Tournament, starting June 3rd at Riverside Park right here in Columbia County! 🌟

To our players, coaches, families, and volunteers, thank you for everything you poured into this. This is OUR moment. Let's fill those stands and give these kids the loudest crowd in the section.

Let's go, MELL! 🔴🔵

Congratulations again to our MELL Rookie Blue All-Stars, your 2026 Georgia Rookie Baseball District 6 Champions!

These boys earned the title the hard way, sweeping a double header against the Washington-Wilkes All-Stars to bring the banner home to MELL. What a way to close out the district run!

But the work is not done yet. Next up is the Northeast Sectional Tournament, June 3rd through 8th at Riverside Park. Our Rookie Blue is ready to represent District 6 and keep this run going.

Come out and pack the stands! Let's give these boys the loudest crowd at the park and cheer them on as they take the next step. Bring your friends, bring your family, and let's show everyone what Martinez-Evans baseball is all about.

Way to go, Rookie Blue! On to Sectionals!

Go MELL!

Please join us in congratulating these 12 young men who have earned a spot representing Martinez Evans Little League this summer. We are so proud of every one of them and cannot wait to watch them compete.

A huge thank-you to every player who came out and tried for the team this year. We had a fantastic group of kids, and these were difficult decisions. To the families who didn't make it this year, thank you for your effort and commitment to MELL. We hope to see you all back next season.

Let's send these boys off the right way as they take on District, Sectional, State, and beyond. Good luck to Manager Kevin Pinson and the whole 8-10 squad!

🏆⚾ ROOKIE CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP ⚾🏆
What an incredible night of baseball, MELL families!
The Rangers (Team Manager James Harder) brought their best when it mattered most, topping the Marlins 10 to 2 to claim the Rookie Championship! And while the score may not have been close, the heart and effort from the Marlins (Team Manager Christopher Tate, who was cheering from afar while out of town) was on full display every single inning. Both teams fought hard all the way to the final out, and that is something to be proud of.
Here is what made tonight extra special though. These two teams faced each other THREE times this season. If you watched that first game and then watched tonight, you saw something remarkable. The growth from these kids has been nothing short of awesome. The throws are sharper, the swings are more confident, and their heads are in the game. That does not happen by accident. That happens because of dedicated coaches, supportive families, and kids who showed up ready to learn and get better every single time they stepped on that field.
To every Ranger and every Marlin: you may not fully understand it yet, but what you accomplished this season is something special. Keep showing up. Keep working. The best is still ahead of you. 🙌
Congratulations to the Rangers on your championship, and thank you to both teams for giving us a season full of memories!

🏆⚾ MINORS CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP ⚾🏆
What a season it has been, MELL families. And what a way to cap it off.
The #4 Marlins (Team Manager Jay Mundy) came into the Championship game as the underdog, facing the #2 A's (Team Manager Jim Avery), and they played like they had something to prove. They battled, they scrapped, and when it was all over, the Marlins walked away as your Minors Champions!
But if you were there tonight, you know the scoreboard only tells part of the story. What we witnessed was so much bigger than baseball. We saw kids who have grown in ways that go far beyond the diamond this season. We saw competitors who pushed each other to be better. We saw sportsmanship, grit, and heart from BOTH dugouts from the very first pitch to the very last out.
To the A's and Coach Avery: you should be incredibly proud. You represented this league with class all season long, and tonight was no different.
To the Marlins and Coach Mundy: never count out the underdog. You proved that preparation, belief, and teamwork can overcome any obstacle. Champions!
Most importantly, to every single player in this league: watching you grow this season has been one of the greatest privileges we have as coaches, parents, and a community. This is what Little League is all about. 🙌

🏆⚾ COACH PITCH CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP ⚾🏆
What a game, Martinez-Evans Little League families! Last night's Coach Pitch Championship on Ludlow Field was everything youth baseball is all about: heart, hustle, and a finish that had everyone on the edge of their seats.
The White Sox (Manager Sean Frantom) and the Orioles (Manager Jose Rivera) put on an absolute show, trading leads back and forth in a nail-biting battle that came all the way down to the final play. When the dust settled, the Orioles walked away with the championship, 11 to 10!
But make no mistake. BOTH teams were champions tonight. Every single player on that field gave everything they had, and it showed. This is the kind of game these kids will remember for a long time.
Huge congratulations to Coach Rivera and the Orioles, and a massive shoutout to Coach Frantom and the White Sox for pushing them every single inning. This is exactly why we love this game. 🧡🖤🏅
Thank you to all the parents, coaches, and fans who came out to cheer these kids on. What a night for MELL! 🙌
