Beneath a canopy of cool and quaint summer skies, our Toronto Playgrounds Major Peewee Selects defeated the Bloordale (2) Bombers 6-3 in five innings of Etobicoke Baseball Association (EBA) action this evening at Millwood Park.

With the proceedings tied 3-3, Zack (32) delivered a clutch RBI double that propelled TP into a 4-3 lead. TP tacked on two additional insurance runs via a RBI from Cam (77) and a RBI single from Sasha (28).

TP closer Tyler (42) threw a 1-2-3 bottom of the fifth to seal the deal on a hard fought win on the road and their seventh victory of the EBA Select season.

Here are some additional highlights:

  • The Major Peewees jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning.
  • TP starter Cam held the Bombers off the scoresheet in the bottom of the first with a one strikeout effort.
  • The Bloordale offense surges to life in the bottom of second as the Bombers score three to take a 3-2 lead.
  • TP reliever Sasha enters the fray in the second to extinguish the Bloordale offensive uprising.
  • TP reliever Jack H (27) pitches two scoreless innings and stymies the Bombers in the third and fourth.
  • Adam (18), Max (17) and Zack turn a stellar 4-3-2 inning ending double play in the third.
  • Troy (37) delivers a grace under pressure RBI single in the top of the fourth that allows TP to tie the game 3-3.
