It’s summertime.
That means three things: The evening light lingers. The kids are out of school. And Mill Valley Little Leaguers are playing All-Star baseball around Marin County.
The MVLL 9s All-Stars and 13s Intermediate (50/70) All-Stars jumped into District 3 play this past week, and things went smashingly.
The 13s play in the District 3 championship on Thursday June 24 at Alto at 530 pm while the 9s, if they won on June 22 at Boyle, would play in the District 3 championship on June 24 at 530 pm at Hamman Field in Novato.
