On a perfect, sunny Southern California day, Arcadia American Little League opened its 56th season Saturday at Windsor Field, which in all those years never looked so good.
With players, coaches, sponsors and city representatives on hand, another championship season began while AALL officially hoisted its two 2013 District 17 championship banners.
In the first game of the year, the Majors A’s got a spectacular pitching effort from Tyler Quintero and defeated the Indians, 3-2. Quintero helped overcome a leadoff home run by Jeffrey Castillo with a two-run shot of his own. Eddie Jin pitched well in a losing effort for the Indians.
In another Majors game, the Cubs received a four-hit complete game from Dustin Allen and defeated the Angels, 6-1.
In the minors opener, the Cubs took a big early lead and hung on to defeat the Dodgers, 12-8.
