Rookie Pirates bring OBA Championship to Port Lambton

The Port Lambton Pirates rookie team are All-Ontario champions.

The group of eight and nine-year-old boys (and one seven-year-old) travelled to Kingsville for the Ontario Baseball Association tournament and went undefeated heading into the finals.

The Pirates squared off against Woodslee in the finals and lost the first match-up on Sunday 7-4 in the double knock-out tournament.

Port Lambton redeemed themselves in the second game, winning 8-0 and capturing the OBA championship.

This is reportedly the first OBA win by a Port Lambton baseball team in more than 40 years.

The boys celebrated their win today with a fire truck ride around Port Lambton.
