Labour Day Weekend saw the Peewee Braves in Windsor for the OBA A division Championships. The 1st game was Friday afternoon against the Peterborough Tigers. This game featured probably the best pitcher the Braves have seen all year (a flame throwing lefty named Rob Condon). Condon went on to 3 hit the Braves for a 10- 1 victory. Mitch Bigras, Sam Ellenor and Jesse Marks had the hits for Sarnia. Mitch Bigras came out throwing well and went into the 4th inning before surrendering 4 runs on 2 hits 3 walks and 4 strikeouts. Tyler Whitbread then took the hill and gave up 6 runs 3 earned on 4 hits, 3 walks and 6 strikeouts. The pitchers did a great job as Peterborough was probably one of the best hitting teams we've seen as well.

Next game was early Saturday morning and it was win or go home. And win we did. The boys came out strong and mercied Kingston 12-2. In this game Sam ellenor and Dylan Whitbread combined on a no hitter. Sam went 3 innings gave up a run on no hits 5 walks 4 strikeouts and one hit batter. Dylan went 2 innings gave up a run unearned on no hits 2 walks and5 strikeouts. At the dish Tyler Whitbread was 2for2 while Sam Ellenor tripled and Tristan Buntrock, Mitch Bigras and Vince caschera all had a hit as well.

No rest for the weary on this steamy Saturday as the boys headed directly from game 2 to game 3.

And the momentum continued. Another mercy this time over Toronto area team from Birchmount. Final score 10-0. Vince Caschera got the start and went 3 and 2/3 innings allowing no runs on 1 hit 1 walk and 9 strikeouts. Tyler Whitbread finished up allowing no runs on 1 hit 1 walk and 1 strikeout.

Hayden Maclean, Tyler Whitbread, Mitch Bigras and Sam Ellenor had big hits for the Braves.

After a short rest it was on to the 3rd game of the day against the Hometown Walker Homesites. This one started out weird when the home team didn't like the umpire so they had him replaced. Eventually the game got underway but it was not long before controversy reared its head again as with 3 runs across already the Braves Sam Ellenor crushed a ball that got by the outfielder and rolled about a mile. The base umpire ruled it a home run but out came Homesites manager and what do you know they change the call to a triple. Not to be out done Coach Marks had his say in the matter and after a lengthy discussion and input from about a hundred parties Sam was awarded his home run and all was well. Sarnia carried a 6-1 lead into the bottom of the 3rd when Walker Homesites (who are a very good team) began chipping away at the lead and heading into the bottom of the 7th it was tied 6-6.

Unfortunately they had the top of there order coming up and wasted little time pushing across the winning run. Kudos has to go to little Nate Jackson of Walker Homesites. He might be the tiniest player we have ever seen and he went the final 5 innings blanking the Braves and recording the win.

Mitch Bigras got the start for Sarnia and went 3 innings giving up 4 runs 5 hitsand 3 strikeouts. Shane Remes, Tyler Groulx and Jesse Marks closed out the game. Vince Cashera was 3 for 3 with a home run double and single.

Same Ellenor had a single to go with his mammoth home run.
