WESTFIELD – The Westfield Post 124 and Pittsfield Post 68 American Legion baseball teams are at a stalemate. This game of tug of war, though, will soon be decided.
Westfield and Pittsfield will meet for the final time this postseason with a championship berth on the line. The final game in Bracket B of the double-elimination tournament will be played Monday night at Bullens Field at 7 p.m.
It has been a roller coaster postseason ride for Westfield, having opened the tourney with a 6-1 win over East Springfield Post 420, followed by an 8-1 loss to Pittsfield. Post 124 staved off elimination with consecutive victories over East Springfield, 12-5, and Pittsfield, 10-3.
Pittsfield opened tournament play with a 2-0 record prior to losing to Westfield.
The winner of Monday night’s game will advance to the best-of-3 sectionals championship against Bracket A.
