Game 11 Note (Winner Bracket Final): Play was suspended in the top of the 3rd inning due to fog at 12:30 am Sunday when a fly ball to centerfield went unseen. One run scored on this play that should have been the 2nd out of the inning and runners ended up at 1st and 3rd by the time the play ended. Twisters were ahead 4-1 with one out when play was suspended. Play was scheduled to resume at 9:00 am Sunday. When play was resumed Sunday morning, the first hitter grounded out pitcher to first to make it two outs, then a single to bring in one run before the third out of the inning. It is possible to point to two runs scored as a result of the fog issue. Unfortunately, fog comes in at the waterfront in Petoskey quickly and there is little warning or ability to plan around this. The fog began rolling in during the 1st inning but would come in waves and players reported that play was not being impacted. The decision to suspend play was made by the plate umpire, the umpire in chief of the tournament, the tournament director and the local ASA commissioners who were all present at this very late hour.
\n(ASA Rule 5, Section 3, C: …the umpire is empowered to call a game at any time because of darkness, rain, fire, panic or any other cause that places the patrons or players in peril. ASA Rule 5, Section 3, D: Games that are not considered regulation shall be resumed at the exact point where they were stopped.)
\n(The tournament got behind schedule after Game 5 that took 2 1\/2 hours to play and 90 minute scheduled starts between games which were not enough time in scheduling which is noted for future reference by the tournament director.)<\/p>\n
