Belmont Redwood Shores baseball fever is catching on! Even the Belmont firefighters are getting in on the action and will be BBQ-ing Friday night at Carlmont High School's Student Union for the ESPN view party.

All proceeds from the BBQ will benefit the team.

Here's the scoop on Friday night's game.  Thank you Patch user Steve Hayes for this rundown:

6:00 p.m. PDT on ESPN: Belmont, California vs. Chandler, Arizona (West Regional Semifinal #2)

"Both of the semi-final games should be fun to watch. Chula Vista and Belmont will likely use their "number two" pitchers in the semi-final games as they look forward to theSaturday final.

The Las Vegas team has one very strong pitcher an he will probably start against Chula Vista. Las Vegas was beaten badly by Chula Vista earlier in the tournament, but the Las Vegas "ace" pitcher might turn things around. The Arizona team does not appear to have strong pitching but they have a good offense.

If both Belmont and Chula Vista win then expect a very low scoring game and it might come down to pitching control. The Chula Vista pitcher is very imposing at 6'2", but he does not have the control demonstrated by Sean Lee - that will eat into his pitch count and might result in some scratch runs resulting from walks.

It is more interesting to watch these games than it is to watch the Giants at this point."
