After winning their division of the round robin series the "real" Red Sox came up short in the tournament semi-final dropping the game 15 - 13 to the tournament host Etobicoke team. The loss prevented a much desired rematch with North York who would go on to mercy Etobicoke in the tournament final. Overall the team continued to play some strong ball and hung in tough to the end. A couple of tough breaks lead to the teams downfall. Click here to view game-by-game results. Special mention goes to Cole T and Christian B both played their best games of the year at this tournament not just at the plate where Christian hit 2 homers and had 3 triples but also in the field where Cole was flawless and even turned a spectacular double play in the game against Pickering. Colin B was also devestating at the plate, he lead the team in hits and was the only player on the team to collect 3 hits in every game. Colin ended up going 12 for 14. Connor A and Michael G were also relentless at the plate. Connor collected 9 hits in his 12 at bats while Michael was second on the team in hits going 10 for 12 at the plate. Congratulations also goes out to Dane G who represented the team well in the skills competition. Dane wound up 3rd in the throwing discipline. Honourable mention goes out to Colin B who ran the bases in 15.33 seconds during the running discipline. Colin's time placed 4th overall just behind the second and third place times of 15.31 seconds and 15.32 seconds. Adam R also deserves mention for his performenace in throwing - he was just inches short of breaking into the top three throws.
