Back on the Podium

You can add another bronze medal to the mantle for Team Saskatchewan at the Baseball Canada 19U Women’s National Championship.

We recap their journey to the podium on home turf in Saskatoon over the past week.

One More Time

Many of the 20 young men who made up the Baseball Sask roster for The Road to Okotoks had the opportunity to be teammates over the last few years.

Home Sweet Home

Representing her home province is going to look a little different this time for Beth Sarauer.

The Clavet native will undoubtedly have a few familiar faces in the stands when she and her Team Saskatchewan teammates take to the field at the Baseball Canada 19U Women’s National Championships in Saskatoon.

OPINION: Praise for The Road to Okotoks

“I can’t believe I’m in baseball heaven in Okotoks.”

When former Minnesota Twins legend and Canadian Baseball Hall of Famer Justin Morneau says something like that, you stand up and take notice.

Joe McFarland has more on the sentiment surrounding the inaugural event.

On The Road with … Pryor Dyck

It’s not the way he drew it up, but Pryor Dyck will take the first win for Team Saskatchewan at the Morneau Cup.

We take a look at his performance in their 1-0 victory over the UBC Thunder.

The Sweet 16

We have come to the fork in The Road to Okotoks and the Morneau Cup.

After three Regional Qualifers were held in May, 16 teams have made the trek to Alberta for the start of the inaugural 19U national championship.

Team Saskatchewan’s Road to Okotoks

They’re not just representing their academies. They’re playing for their province.

Team Saskatchewan has brought together players from all programs – including Going Yard Academy, Berries Academy and Martin Academy – to suit up in The Road to Okotoks.

Hitching a Ride to Okotoks

The road has been paved and it’s almost time for the teams to start their engines.

The Road to Okotoks is set to kick off on July 14 and, ahead of the inaugural Morneau Cup, teams were able to choose up to three players from non-qualifying programs to round out their rosters.

Hall Calls for Baba

There are few people who have had a greater impact on the game of baseball in Canada than the late Jim Baba.

But it wasn’t just what he accomplished as a coach and longtime executive, it was how he went about doing it.

He carried the same passion and unwavering national pride into everything he did, whether it was leading a grassroots initiative to grow the game across the country or supporting Canada’s teams at the World Baseball Classic.

A Friend and Mentor

Only one other person had ever represented the World Baseball Softball Confederation at the WBC finals besides our late WBSC Baseball Technical Commission Chair, Jim Baba. And now it was Shari Reiniger standing there in his place. Just like working as an International Baseball Technical Commissioner at the Tokyo Olympics, and being the first woman to do that, the moment was not lost on her.
