OTTAWA- The 2015 Major League Baseball season officially opens today with nine Canadians on Opening Day rosters.
OTTAWA- It’s hard to believe that nearly three years ago, 20 Canadian teenagers went on an unprecedented run at the IBAF 18U World Cup in Seoul, South Korea coming up just short in their quest for a world championship.
GAME INFORMATION Score: Tampa Bay Rays 4 Canada (18U) 1 Location: Tropicana Field, St. Petersburg, Florida
The Junior National Team played a doubleheader today and dropped a 4-3 decision to the New York Yankees prospects in the afternoon before doubling up on Puerto Rico, 4-2 in the evening.
DUNEDIN-The score didn’t matter. The memories made today and experience of rubbing shoulders with big leaguers, including three Canadian Toronto Blue Jays, will stay with members of the Junior National Team for a long time.
