Tucson Old Timers (TOTS)
60-and-over baseball
Reed Palmer belted his club-leading 17th home run in the bottom of the third inning as Team White cruised to a 9-2 win over Team Blue today at Udall Park.
Team Blue sent newcomer Doc Escala, 66, to the mound to face Team White and its hard-hitting lineup, which included Palmer, who owns a home run off all of the TOTS' pitchers. Escala joined the club as he watched Palmer's high drive bounce off the trees beyond the 300-foot fence in right field.
Escala, the newest member of the TOTS and the recipient of his blue and white club hat today, is a Hall-of-Fame player and a former member of the 38-and-over Tucson MSBL. Welcome aboard, Doc!
