The Neepawa Cubs have opened up the Santa Clara Baseball League playoffs with a 4-2 win over the Ebb and Flow Lakers. Despite some less than ideal weather conditions on Tuesday, July 12, the teams were able to complete the first game of their best-of-three series. While a light wash of rain poured down upon the players for the entirety of the contest, it wasn’t enough to halt the action, or even hinder the excellent play that was on display in the field.
All aboard!
