CAPE COD LEAGUE TOP 10
Baseball returned to Cape Cod this summer after the 2020 season was canceled by the pandemic, marking the first time the league had missed a season since the end of World War II.
The Cape Cod League’s return was a welcome sight for many around the game and especially for the people on the Cape. The league drew large crowds all season, and the play on the diamond was its typically high level, despite some unusual circumstances.
Like every other entity in amateur baseball, the Cape had to deal with an abnormally late draft date, which led to a midseason disruption of many rosters. USA Baseball’s Collegiate National Team was also twice the size it normally is, which pulled more players away from the Cape.
The flip side of that was a shorter schedule for Team USA, which led to more of its players spending part of the summer on the Cape.
The Cape’s season culminated with Brewster sweeping Bourne in the best-of-three championship series. It was the second title in four seasons for the Whitecaps and manager Jamie Shevchik.
Only players who had not signed professionally were eligible
