Champs! So much to celebrate after historic London Majors win | CBC News

The London Majors have won the Intercounty Baseball League Championship for the second year in a row, marking a historic moment for the team not seen since 1948. 

The Majors beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 8 to 7 Thursday at the Christie Pits ball diamond in Toronto.

“There were a lot of moving parts, it was a lot of on edge,” said Majors pitcher Braeden Ferrington.

“Nerves, tension, all the above emotions. And then … strike three, and then all of a sudden, gloves go thrown up in the air!”
