The Memorial Field Fastball League Champion Canadians.
The Memorial Field Fastball League title is in the hands of the Canadians for the the fifth straight year after they beat Remax 10-5 on Tuesday night.
The Canadians swept the best-of-five series 3-0, after 7-6 and 8-5 wins last week.
Dane Roy hit a grand slam in the first inning and Dave Helland followed that up with another homer two batters later to jump out to an 9-3 lead after two innings. Roy would finish a single short of the cycle.
"It felt really good, everybody played well and the bats were alive and we won it, we're happy, " says league MVP Chris Hololien, who went one for four in the win.
Blake Dixon threw a complete game for the win, "We started on them quick, played some good D and had some great pitching from Blake, and that was the game," adds Hololien.
Hololien also walked away with the league batting title and most improved player award, to go along with his league MVP. He tells us what lead to his strong year, "I think it's honestly just time, I've been here for about five years now and the first season I couldn't hit a ball to save my life, so I think just time and seeing a lot of pitches."
The league's top pitcher award went to Tim McKaig, who took the loss for Remax in the final game.
