Tough game three loss. Josh Edwards threw a gem and we just couldn’t get the bats going again. Gotta go win two Sunday up North.

#BREAKING Alberta separatists lost in court this morning. The justice dismissed their motion to strike & decided the chief electoral officer is within provincial law to refer their referendum question for a constitutional review. #ableg #cdnpoli

I love this matchup. You have a guy in Tucker who has waited 4 years to get the Sylvan Lake Gulls to this point & another guy in Oudie-Sanger who is a hometown kid who gets to start with family & friends there and also 4 years with the Regina Red Sox. Can’t wait! The WCBL ⚾️🇨🇦

The Sylvan Lake Gulls are 5-0 in the 2025 WCBL Postseason. The last team to finish undefeated in the playoffs was the 4-0 Lethbridge Bulls in the pandemic-shortened 2021 season. Prior to that, the Swift Current 57's went 9-0 in 2016 and the Bulls were also 9-0 in 2015.

Stopped by the Pirates’ clubhouse this afternoon to speak to Tommy Pham. He didn’t want to elaborate on his posts after last night’s game against the #BlueJays, but made it clear he stands by them and wanted this to be passed along: “Let them know I speak in facts.”

Spoke with Addison Barger. He wanted it clarified that he was suspended for a stimulant not a steroid - 50 games in 2019. He’s been tested every year since, as every player is, with no discipline since. #BlueJays
