Never Give Up

by Len Nunes

A quick glance at last night's Prospects game boxscore shows another loss to the Okotoks Dawgs, this time 11-9. Another glance at the boxscore shows you that your Prospects scored seven runs in the bottom of the ninth which should count as a lesson for us fans.

What lesson you ask? Do not let the 1-13 record fool into believing this team is about to pack things in for the season. The fighting spirit runs deep in your Prospect clubhouse and sooner rather than later the wins will come for this determined bunch of ball players.

Here's a breakdown of the epic ninth inning from last night:

pinch hitters Tony Olson and Nathan Parade de la Feraude both reach base
pinch hitter Jordan Geiger doubles scoring T. Olson
Dean Olson sinlges scoring de la Feraude
Connor Battaglia hits into an RBI groundout scoring Geiger
Andy Wicklund singles and Jauch records out number two
Bryn Redhead singles home D. Olson
Sean Guite singles home Wicklund
de la Feraude (in his 2nd at bat of the inning) singles home Redhead and Guite

NEXT UP:

A 2 game homestand versus the Yorkton Cardinals (4-9) on Thursday June 20 and Friday June 21.

Both games are scheduled to start at 7:05PM and both games have special attractions.

Friday is our 2nd edition of our "Tailgate Party" this time featuring the musical stylings of Jimmy Whiffen.
