3 members of TOTS to play for San Antonio at MSBL World Series

Tucson Old Timers (TOTS)

60-and-over baseball

Three members of the Tucson Old Timers will play for the 70-and-over San Antonio Texans at the 2015 Men's Senior Baseball League (MSBL) World Series, which is scheduled for Oct. 18-24 in Phoenix, Arizona.

The trio consists of 73-year-old right-hander Arnie White, 70-year-old left-hander Ron Petersen and 70-year-old infielder and right-handed pitcher Pigpen Price.

All three players played in 2014 for the Arizona Scorpions, but elected to make the change this season. The San Antonio team is managed by William Burgess from Adkins, Texas.

Burgess is well known at the MSBL event in Phoenix. He started playing in 1994 after not throwing a baseball for over 30 years. Since 1994, Burgess has missed just one October at the classic senior event.

"We decided to make the switch to San Antonio due to the fact the Texans are looking to bolster their pitching staff," says Price. "We're looking forward to playing for the Texans and can't wait to get started in yet another MSBL World Series."

All three players are also slated to play for the 65-and-over Tucson Aces, a team made up entirely of players from the Tucson Old Timers, and coached by TOTS member Pistol Pete Peters. The Aces will play Oct 24-30.
