Official London Majors News Release

LONDON - The London Majors are pleased to announce the signing of eight-year veteran outfielder Byron Reichstein.

The former Southern Arkansas Mulerider returns to the Majors where he has been a stalwart in right field.

The St. Thomas native knows that the Majors are a historic part of the city of London and knows how special it is to put on the uniform each and every chance he has.

“I am looking forward to getting back on the field and playing for Roop and the London Majors this upcoming season,” said Reichstein.

Co-owner, manager and general manager Roop Chanderdat is looking forward to having Reichstein back with his club this year.

“It’s great to have Byron back for another season with the Majors,” said Chanderdat. “He is one of our core veteran players that we are looking to help lead this team to a championship.”

The London Majors are a member of Canada’s top baseball league, the Intercounty Baseball League. The 100-year old summer league is one of the oldest baseball leagues in the world, with the league established in 1919, drawing significantly more fans, in a friendly ballpark experience, than any league of its kind.
