Ryan Jarrett receives a high five from a team mate as he rounds third base after hitting a home run in the Jays and Bad News Beers slo-pitch game in Newcastle.
Bad weather could delay the start of this weekend's slo-pitch tournament at the Newcastle Diamonds.
Organizer Meredy Milke said they'll play through the rain, but not thunder and lightening, so Friday's games may have to be pushed to Saturday. Environment Canada reports a risk of severe thunderstorms in Drumheller and area starting Friday afternoon continuing into the evening.
21 teams are entered in this year's tournament, with teams guaranteed four games in the round-robin style tournament. Teams receive a $25 payout per win.
Each team also nominates their Most Valuable Player for the year.
The tournament is scheduled through to Sunday.
