"A Leaside tradition since 1968"

Jun 24- It will be a familiar foe as the Leafs will open their Ontario Elimination Tournament against the Pickering Red Sox. The Leafs second game of the tournament will be against either the Thornhill Reds or Martingrove Sox. The 2019 Ontario Elimination tournament will be hosted in Windsor over the August long weekend.

Jul 19- The Leafs got back into the win column as they defeated the East York Bulldogs 16-9 in a pedestrian affair that saw the first three innings take over an hour to complete. The Leafs took advantage of 14 free passes from the Bulldogs while banging out 14 hits. The highlight was rookie Tony Kwon's monster left-centre blast. Nick Manoukarakis picked up 4 rbi's as he continues his excellent year at the plate. Josh Howsam picked up the win in five innings of work while Andrew Morales picked up the save working the last 4. Leafs travel to EY on Monday.

Jul 12- The Leafs were cruising until the 8th inning against Kendal last night. Starter Jeremiah Sucre (insert) had struck out 11 and scattered 5 hits up to that point but unfortunately for the Leafs he just ran out of gas. Reliever Kenneth Pittman was unable to put a lid on the inning and when the dust settled Kendal had platted 11 runners. The Leafs offence was able to muster seven against the Eagles as Jeremy Hopkins and Averey Bet-Payumo each had multi hit nights with the Leafs slugger, ABP legging out a rare triple. Leafs host the league leaders Newmarket Hawks Sunday at Talbot park. First pitch 7:30 pm

Jul 18- The Leafs have now lost four in a row as they dropped a 15-7 decision to the Pickering Red Sox. The Sox jumped out to a 10-1 lead before the Leafs bats clawed it back to a three run deficit mid way through the game but unfortunately weren't able to add more as Pickering put tack on runs late to secure the victory. A trio of pitchers, Jorge Frugoni, Sean Kavanaugh (pic) and Kenneth Pittman racked up hits as the Leafs played National League baseball. KP also turned some heads as he swiped 3B in the Leafs big six run inning. Leafs home tomorrow against the EY Bulldogs.
