OTTAWA (CP) - A final, solitary nail was slammed into the coffin of triple-A baseball in Canada when the Ottawa Lynx played what was all but certainly their last game Monday.
A century of elite minor-league ball in Canadian cities ended with hundreds of fans leaping onto the field while a wary security guard sat on home plate to protect it from illicit souvenir-seekers.
Children and 30-somethings alike sprinted around the bases at Lynx Stadium in a final salute to the game that left town - just like it has left Calgary, Vancouver, Winnipeg, Edmonton and Montreal.
