Croydon Pirates won the British Baseball Federation Double A League Championship on Sunday.
They defeated Kent Buccaneers 16-7 in Slough with standout pitching provided by starter Gerald Aguilar and MVP reliever Tim Ssali.
Veteran Nirson Gomez produced an inside-the-park home run. Dariel Moreta had a .600 batting average with Daryl Botes clutch hitting.
This year’s Championship follows Croydon’s 2021 season which saw them finish second in their division and third overall after a League Championship bronze medal game.
Now the 2022 champions are hoping to field two teams next season – one at the BBF second tier Triple-A level and a second Single A entry-level team.
The Pirates play their home games at Roundshaw Playing Fields, Hannibal Way, Croydon, CR0 4RW and are always looking for new players of all levels.
