Centre fielder Travis Skelton drove in three runs with a pair of hits as the visiting Leaside Leafs topped the Newmarket Hawks 6-2 to sweep a Greater Toronto Baseball League quarter-final playoff series Monday night at McKnight Field. Skelton hit a two-run double in the seventh inning off losing pitcher Adam Kallio to expand a 3-1 Leafs lead. The victory enabled Leaside to claim the series in two games and advance to the league’s four-team, double-knockout tournament starting Friday night in Thornhill at Bishop’s Cross Park. Mark West had two doubles and Liam O’Brien had a double and single among the six hits Newmarket recorded off winning pitcher Andrew Morales.
