Jaguars & Braves Win Senior

League Playoffs

By "GRANDSTAND”.

Jaguars nosed out the Saints 3-2 after two extra innings of play while the Braves protected an early two-run lead against the Canadians to chalk up the first shutout game in the Senior Softball League series yesterday.

Glorious weather greeted the flock of fans who turned out to watch the title series which was up to expectations with every minute of the game full of dynamic tension, and followers can look forward to a tight home-stretch series.
