FAIRFIELD COUNTY, Conn. Despite a rich tradition for baseball in Fairfield County, the past 10 years have not been kind to local teams at the state level. In the past decade, just four squads from Fairfield County have taken home the state's top hardball prize out of 40 possible championships. Twelve teams will try to change that recent trend as the four state tournaments begin Tuesday.
