Victoria Capitals Win the CBL Championship!

217,364 fans went through the

Victoria fans entered the Kelowna stadium with corn brooms used at their local curling facility to watch their Capitals sweep away the Heat in 4 games.  Many of the faithful drove the 8-10 hours and some took AC flight #4123 from Vancouver.  The Lester B. Cup was presented to the winning team.

Son of a Millionaire Family Knows How to "Catch"

I'm in the ZONE!
We all remember the Royal Lepage real estate signs all over Toronto. So does Dominique, catcher for the Niagara Stars in the CBL. He was responsible for hammering them in people's lawns. He remembers cutting the wood for the signs and explains this is the reason he feels he has a gun for an arm behind the plate. "My arm strength has always been amazing," he said. "My dad was a hard working father and didn't enjoy any free time. This is why most scouts say my work ethic is very low, but I prefer to enjoy life outside of baseball when I am not on the field." This CBL All-Star looks to be a very high draft pick in the ABL regardless of work ethic. His YTD stats are:

CBL Update, Eh? Prescription Please!

Hubert Munoz, CF for Trois Rivieres leads the league with 45 whiffs (!) in just 30 games. Hubert watched Major League and decided to learn from that educational movie by visiting his eye doctor. Munoz learned that he had 20-500 vision in both eyes. He will be wearing his new -8.5 contact lenses starting in Week #5 of the CBL. Let's hope for his baseball career it works! His YTD stats shown below:
