Twelve days ago the WMBL season opened up for your Edmonton Prospects facing the West Division Champs in Medicine Hat. Your Prospects would take the Mavericks to extra innings losing in the 13th. Since that day the Mavericks have roared out to a 9-1 start while our Prospects have struggled out of the gate at 1-8.
Tonight's starting Prospects pitcher Justin Hanks (0-1) had a shaky WMBL debut against the Mavericks but was solid in his second WMBL start. Before joining the Prospects, Hanks pitched for Chapman University posting a 4-8 record. Two of those wins were complete games, one of which was a shutout. Chapman also had a no-decision in a game when he pitched 7 2/3 innings of shutout ball.
During the first meeting versus the Mavericks the following Prospect players collected RBI: 2B Tommy Clouthier, OF Brandon Mikulka, OF Nathan Parade de la Feraude, SS Joey Bergandi.
POT OF GOLD:
Sean Guite has hit safely in all 7 games he has appeared in this season. He also leads the team in doubles with 3.
Nathan Parade de la Feraude is on a 5 game hitting streak. He is also tied for the team lead in RBI with Bryn Redhead and Tommy Clouthier at 4.
NEXT HOME GAMES:
Thursday June 13 and Friday June 14 versus the Swift Current Indians. Both games begin at 7:05PM.
