The Key Guys Championship Team with Trophy

The championship game, played at Bloomington, MN’s Valley View fields was a first for the team sponsored by the Twin Cities Top Automotive Locksmith firms, also called The Key Guys. But it started out in a challenging manner with the fired up Silverbacks taking a solid 7-0 lead.

But not to fear, the Team had been hitting well all weekend, averaging over 24 runs a game over the entire tournament.  In short order they overcame the deficit and quickly assumed an 11-7 lead. From there is was all smiles as they went on to clinch the title with a final score of 30-20.

The team plans to play in 13 USA Softball tournaments in all this year, and is looking to add to their trophy count.

The Firemen’s is getting to be a nationally known tournament with one team hailing from Florida making the trek to Minnesota to contest in the Tier I category.

Manager Josh Kratz explained that it means a lot take the title. “Definately a first (for us to) win. It’s not an easy one to chase down either but it is very prestigious.”

The Key Guys sponsor, Brian Nystrom is excited about the teams progress over the years. “Just as we have built our business by meeting our customers needs with consistent effort to master the basics and then go beyond that, this team has done the same.”

“The Key Guys business specializes in cutting car keys for people and business when they are lost or broken or when a spare car key is needed.  It is a niche market and we are very good at what we do,”  Brian says. We like to think we are a championship team both on and off the field.
