May Days Offers Exciting Start to Season

It came down to the last pitch to determine the champion of the first major tournament of the 2013 BC men's fastpitch schedule this past weekend in Kelowna and it ended in the most dramatic of fashions.
The Sooke Loggers took the Kelowna May Days Tournament crown over Randy's A's 3-2 highlighted by a dramatic bottom of the 7th two-run home run by Loggers' catcher Brian Banner off of A's pitcher Colin Mackenzie.
Banner's recap: "We went into the 7th down by a run and were having trouble for the most part trying to score runners. Andrew Medwedrich with great hustle beat out an infield single and with one out it was my turn to try and reach base. I was actually thinking about bunting when I first stepped into the box with Haldane on deck because I knew he was seeing the ball well all day. But with Drew running I knew he'd be on third with a base hit. (Click here to continue reading)

Video of the Month

Each month we'll aim to bring to you a clip from the interweb to further entertain your fastpitch-crazy brain. This month, ESPN dove into the science behind the difference between softball and baseball. Keep in mind they are using females as the softball base here so the numbers for the men's game would be even more dramatic. Here's the video.
