[Vancouver, BC] – The Vancouver Grey Sox travelled south to Portland, Oregon this past weekend for a four game super series vs. Portland DeMarini. The Grey Sox pitching staff was bolstered by the addition of Travis Price for the weekend. We wish to thank Paul Lybeck from the Fargo, ND MinnDak Millers organization for assisting us and permitting Travis to join the Grey Sox for this series. As well we used this weekend as an opportunity to bring along pitcher Scott Lieph from the Sooke, BC Midget program to garner some open level mens experience. The Grey Sox swept the series which brings their seasonal record to 29 – 6. Results from the games played are enclosed below. <\/p>\n
