| The Orinda Baseball Association Ponys completed in Manteca in 100-degree weather against teams from Northern and Central California. Big League Dream Park has replica fields of major league stadiums, the nine-year-olds and their parents enjoyed playing games in Angel Stadium, Fenway Park and Tiger Stadium. They were unseeded at the start but still made it to the championship game with three come-from-behind victories, the last one against the top-ranked Titan Blue from Brentwood. The Ponys are currently competing in the Sectional playoffs in Vacaville and will end their season July 23.
