It was the Palmer, Thompson show in October

Tucson Old Timers (TOTS)

60-and-over baseball

October was a strange month as far as the 60-and-over Tucson Old Timers were concerned.

A hand full of rain outs and a Men's Senior Baseball League World Series in Phoenix, which took away nine players for an extended period of time during the month, left the organization with just seven games.

Reed Palmer and Doc Thompson took full advantage during those seven games. Palmer went 14 for 21 for a .667 batting average to lead all hitters who played in all seven games, while Thompson went 12 for 23, a .522 average.  Palmer led the club  in RBI with 11 and in home runs with two.

The TOTS are back in action in November and have 13 games scheduled at Udall Park.

Go, TOTS!
