The Canadian men's softball team, including Brussel's native Ty Sebastian, road out Hurricane Maria in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic this week.

The team says there were no games scheduled for yesterday at the 2017 Men’s Pan-American Championships because of uncertainty surrounding the weather. They report off and on rain with light to moderate winds and say "all is good" with the Canadian delegation.

Playoffs start today and feature Canada against the United States at 2 pm.

The team is not anticipating any more issues due to weather.
