TOTS thaw out


Tucson Old Timers (TOTS)

60-and-over baseball





After two weeks of rain outs and a rare day of snow in the Old Pueblo, the 60-and-over Tucson Old Timers thawed out and played at Udall Park today.

The result a 7-5 win for Team White over Team Blue, thanks to some hard hitting from John Mathews and Joe Opocensky who led all hitters with three hits apiece. Opocensky pitched all seven innings for Team White and picked up the pitching victory. Team Blue's Mike Dawson hurled six innings and was saddled with the loss.

Down 5-2, Team White plated five runs in the bottom of the sixth inning -- including a two-run triple from Lloyd Barzell. Team White collected six hits in the inning. Team Blue failed to score in the top of the seventh, despite loading the bases with two outs. Unfortunately, Pigpen Price hit a grounder to Team White's second baseman Brad Vermeer for the final out.

The TOTS return to action on Friday at Udall. Game time 10:00 a.m.
