Going into the bottom of the 3rd inning, our Prospects were trailing 12-0. That is not a typo, it is actually the numeral twelve. Fear not, our Propsects would be leading 13-12 after 4 innings.
Going into the 9th inning with the game tied at 13, the Weyburn Beavers would score twice in the top half. Try as they might, the second comeback of the night fell just short as our Prospects would lose the game 15-14.
SCORING SUMMARY
LF Brandon Bufton would put the Prospects on the board with a 3 run HR in the bottom of the 3rd. Later in the same inning, C Jarryd Klemm would hit a 2 RBI double then cross the plate himself when 1B Markus Fergusson would single him home.
In the bottom of the 4th inning, with the bases loaded, RF Ethan Sterkel would clear the bases with a triple. Two pitches later, Klemm would drive in Sterkel. With the bases once again loaded in the fourth, 2B Cody Kielsa would earn a painful RBI getting plunked by a pitch. CF Grant Glasser would earn two RBI with a sacrifice fly.
Glasser would hit his 1st Homerun of the season in the bottom of the ninth to close out the scoring.
