So, our biggest bat was a measly 30".  I just got word that the OC got a nice one, but just waiting for pictures.

Congrats goes out to Team OC for the WIN!  Once again, it was a tough go for the monster bats and Team SD was heading into the final 15 minutes with a 30" bat, but Ben and Team OC comes up with a 34" Bat to seal the win for Orange County!  Congrats guys and You'll be cemented as the SNBF-XV winners for all of the years to come!

I'll post them here. Most people were posting on the SNBF Facebook page. I'll get the pictures over on here today. I went to do it this morning, but found myself out trout fishing after an 18hr day yesterday and 5.5 hours of sleep.

So, from what I see, only 3 bats were caught in SoCal last night.  Two down in SD with the biggest being 30" and one in VC which was 34".  The video of the winner was downloaded to FB, but I can't seem to save it to my computer and share, so here are a few stills.
