The dozen or so teams from Florida who participated in the Gay Softball World Series over Labor Day Weekend fell short in their bid for championship trophies. None of them placed in the top two in any of the divisions.
According to the Chicago Series website, the A-division title went to the Atlanta Venom, who defeated the second place San Francisco Hitmen in the finals.
In B-Division play, the Boston Alley Gators took the first place trophy and the Knoxville Cyclones came in second. The Las Vegas Rat Pack won the C-division while the Boston 5-Star Diablos came up short to place second. And the D-Division saw the Boston Club Café Good Time beat the LA Swingers for the title in the championship game.
In the Masters Division, the Chicago Sidetrack Classics won first after defeating second-place Los Angeles Silver Streaks.
The City of Chicago welcomed the North American Gay Amateur Athletic Association players with parties, parades and even a Pride Day at Wrigley Field on Sept. 4. The series opened the previous Monday with special appearances by former Rugby star and gay advocate Ben Cohen and RuPaul's Drag Race alum Pandora Boxx.
