The Pirates secured the win Saturday to earn first place honors.
The Pirates won the Martha’s Vineyard Little League majors division championship in a 5-2 comeback win Saturday.
The game was played at Penn Field in Oak Bluffs and saw the Pirates beat out the reigning champion Cubs. The win was even sweeter for the Pirates who lost to the Cubs in the playoffs last year.
