Venezuelan Brewers win Orthodox league

Orthodox softball, once a popular sport in our area has really declined. It is similar to fastpitch softball, but pitchers are not allowed to throw windmill. There is one league remaining in our area, the seven-team Ottawa Jewish Men's Softball League - article here. This year's champions are the Venezuelan Brewers.

The Brewers, who really are from that South American country, won the second game of the best of three finals, against the Zephyrs by a score of 13-6 in 7 innings at Hampton Park last week.
