Pilgrim's grand slam helps Canada win softball bronze at World Cup Callum Pilgrim literally touched 'em all on Saturday. The talented Abbotsford, B.C., outfielder hit a walk-off grand slam in the 11th inning, giving Canada an 11-7 come-from-behind victory over the Netherlands in the bronze-medal final at the 2024 WBSC Women's Softball World Cup. Catcher Natalie Wideman of Mississauga, Ont., ignited the Canada comeback in the bottom of the sixth inning, hitting a three-run homer to tie the contest at 5-5. The teams exchanged single runs in the eighth and 10th innings, setting the stage for Pilgrim's heroics in the 11th. Canada had three walk-off wins at this year's World Cup. Sara Groenewegen only pitched 2 1/3 innings but got out of a bases loaded jam in the first. Canada lost 7-2 to Japan on Friday in semifinal action. Third-ranked Japan defeated the top-ranked United States 6-1 in Saturday's final in front of a sellout crowd of 3,200 to win its fourth world title. Source link Posted: 2024-07-21 04:09:21 |
