Tucson Golden Aces off to a good start at 2010 MSBL World Series





The Tucson Golden Aces are off to a good start at the 2010 Men's Senior Baseball League (MSBL) World Series in Phoenix.

The Aces, playing in the 60-and-over division, knocked off Tri Valley, 10-3, in the first game of a doubleheader today and then ripped a team out of Seattle, 16-7, in the nightcap. Pitcher Brad Buchan from Chatham, New York, pitched a complete game for the Aces in the opener, allowing just two earned runs. Pitcher Al Delgado from Laguna Beach, California, hurled seven tough innings in the nightcap and received help in the 8th and 9th innings from two relief pitchers from Tucson, Ernesto "Doc" Escala and Joe Jimenez. The Aces will get a good night's rest before taking on a St. Paul, Minnesota team Tuesday at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Escala provided the big hit of the day with a ground-rule double over the left field fence at the Kansas City spring training facility (annex field #5) in Surprise.
