**Dodgers Win it all**
Congratulations to the ELL Dodgers for winning their Majors Division, winning the ELL tournament, winning the Mullen Cup and TOC championship. What a great year this team has had. When you start a new season most hope to be able to just compete with other teams and have a chance to play bonus baseball at the end of the year. The Dodgers far exceeded all expectations. Way to go boys. The parents, coaches and families are very proud of you all.

Minor A Blue Jays win Division and Mullen Cup championship
The Minor A Division championship came down to the last game of the season with the Blue Jays, Pirates and Red Sox all bunched together at the top of the division. In the end the Blue Jays won out to capture the Division crown. By winning the division the Blue Jays earned a birth into the Mullen cup championship pitted against the ENLL Scrappers. The game against the two top teams in each League was a well played game with solid pitching and great defense. In the end the Blues Jay captured the Mullen Cup bringing it back home.
The Pirates who finished 3rd in the division went on to play the 5th place Orioles in the ELL end of the season tournament championship game. The game went back in forth with the pirates winning out. Congrats to the Pirates for a great season!!!!
Coast City Final

The game matched the Blue Jays up against the ENLL Storm for the second time in the season. With the game knotted in a 3-3 tie in the 5th the Storm hitters struck first and put the game out of reach capturing the Coast City Championship leaving second place for our Jays. Congratulations to the MA Blue Jays for a successful season!!!
