2025 Ontario Men's AAA National Qualifying Tournament Day 2 Recap
8/3/2025by CABC Admin

Day 2 of the 2025 Onatrio Men's AAA National Qualifying Tournament is in the books in Windsor, ON. Moving day at the Elimination Tournament is always exciting as teams are playing for their lives making for some great baseball games and this year was no different. The day was filled with ups and downs, lead chnages galore and some major upsets as teams work towards the ultimate goal of a trip to the Canadian Men's Baseball Championships in Regina.

 

After the dust settled on Day 2, a field that started with 18 teams has now been widdled down to just seven teams who will have a shot at the ultimate prize. A few heavy weights are still in the mix as the Windsor Stars, Etobicoke Rangers and Sarnia Brigade all punched their ticket into Sunday morning. A trio of GTBL teams also make their way into Sunday as the Thornhill Reds, Ajax Spartans and Leaside Leafs are all still in the mix as well. In just their first year in the scene in Men's AAA Baseball, the upstart Waterloo Tigers find themselves in the mix on Sunday as well.
