No down-to-the-wire games this week with the TOTS

Tucson Old Timers (TOTS)

60-and-over baseball

It was a week of lopsided games at Udall Park this week.

When the 60-and-over Tucson Old Timers get together for a competitive game on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, it usual comes down to the final inning before a winner emerges.

But this week the winning team in all three encounters scored a total of 35 runs, while the losers totaled just five runs. Today, Team Blue capped off the week with a 10-2 win over Team White.

Team Blue jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the first inning and never looked back as right-hander Doc Thompson hurled a shutout for three innings. Thompson went on to pick up the win, allowing one unearned run in the fourth. Lloyd Barzell pitched the final two innings for Team Blue, while lefty Dennis Crowley hurled all seven innings for Team White.

The TOTS will be back in action next week.
