2011 Major League Giants Win Championship

Third straight title for the Berlin Little League team.

 With a regular season record of 14-4, the 2011 Major League Giants clinched the title under the management of Mike Lynch and coaching staff of Rob Constantine, Skip Comstock and Frank Naples. On several occasions the Giants trailed going into the sixth inning, but the team's motto this season was "resilience."

Nick Naples and Jack Lynch contributed to all three of the Giants' championships, however, the Giants won the league this year with contribution from all 13 players.  The "strategy" this year was to have fun while learning the fundamentals of good baseball. The Giants worked all season as a team due to the positive encouragement from their coaches and most of all each other.

On the mound for the Giants was Jack Lynch, Nathan Comstock, Mike Calafiore, Mike Constantine, Drew Sapko, Mike Giove and Nick Naples.
