[Vancouver, BC] – The Vancouver Grey Sox and Portland DeMarini played a pair of doubleheaders on the weekend, with Portland staging two comeback wins in close ball games and each squad winning a game by a lopsided margin in 5 innings. The weather was great all weekend – sunny and in the low 70’s. There were decent crowds for the early season contests on both days, and an added feature on Sunday was the attendance of a squirt boys softball group from a nearby community. Both teams were missing several veterans and Portland did not have Michael White in the line-up.<\/p>\n
