When playing a first place team like the Swift Current Indians, it is important to get on the scoreboard first. Last night, a debuting Conner Jauch (playing at 2B) led the game off by being hit by a pitch and worked himself around the bases to open the scoring for your Prospects.
Another key is not allowing your opposition, especially the caliber of the Indians, to put up big innings on offense. This would be the downfall of our Prospects on the Club's first ever "Thirsty Thursday". The Indians would have three separate big innings and defeat our Prospects by a score of 14-4.
Starting DH Dean Olson earned 2 RBI on the night both via the sacrifice fly, one in the 2nd inning and one in the 9th inning.
Starting LF Sean Guite also earned a RBI with a single in the 6th inning.
POT OF GOLD:
With 3 hits last night, SS Andy Wicklund moves into 7th overall in the WMBL in batting average at an impressive .405 clip.
NEXT GAME:
Tonight at Telus Field, Coach McMullen and crew try their hand once again against the Swift Current Indians. Scheduled start time is 7:05PM
Connor Girard (1-1) is scheduled to be our Prospects starting pitcher. In his previous start, Girard went a strong 7 innings giving up only two runs and striking out 6 leading our Prospects to their lone victory this season.
