Two Vineyard teams are still in competition and on Monday the 11-years-old-and-under team hosted Barnstable in what turned out to be a nail-biter until the very last out. Barnstable eventually won the game 8–7, but because the tournament’s early stages are double-elimination, the under-elevens are still in the competition.

Little League Opening Day Is Home Run

On Saturday morning, starting at 10 a.m., Circuit avenue in Oak Bluffs will be closed to traffic, but that doesn’t mean the street won’t be packed. In fact, it will be bursting with color, as all the kids from the Martha’s Vineyard Little League celebrate in uniform the opening day parade, beginning at the Oak Bluffs police station, running down Circuit avenue and finishing at Veira Park.
