The Tri-City Valleycats fell to Quebec, 8-1, on Tuesday, in the opening game of a critical 3 game series north of the border.
The two teams will continue the series tonight. Tri-City comes home for a quick series vs. Sussex County this weekend before heading back out to play the NY Boulders back in Paloma next week.
In other 'Cats news, pitcher Dwayne Marshall, who got shelled in his last start, was placed on the injured list prior to the Quebec series. No word on what exactly the injury is, but Marshall, who came over from Sussex County in the off-season, has been slumping of late.

Section II golf season starts next week, but Albany Academy's Kennedy Swedick has gotten a head start.
Swedick captured the American Junior Golf Association title in North Salem over the weekend, firing a 7 under par for the tournament.

60 years ago today, Wolferts Roost Country Club in Menands hosted the US Girls Junior Championship, the only time that tournament was held in the 518.
Janis Ferraris of San Francisco bested Peggy Conley of Spokane, Washington in the final, 2-up. The late Gail Sykes was the lone player representing the 518. There were a number of other names in the field, as Pete Dougherty recollects in today's Albany Times-Union. Those included future LPGA champions Jane Blalock, Roberta Albers, Sandra Post, Carol Semple, and Laney Smith, and future skiing champion Suzy Chaffee.
============================================
The Mets will honor Eric Shevy, a member of the Watervliet Elks, as the Veteran of The Game during today's matinee vs. Pittsburgh (1 pm, SNY). The Elks Club has been promoting this all week. Thank you, Eric, for your service.
