Sarnia Bantam Braves lose doubleheader to Windsor

 
The Bantam Braves were in Windsor on Saturday to face the " AAA " Windsor Stars for an exhibition doubleheader at Cullen Stadium.  Unfortunately, Sarnia left their bats at home, and were thumped in the first game 11 - 0. Cole Moriarity and Dom Bucci shared the pitching duties in the loss. They allowed 10 hits and struck out 5 hitters, while walking 7 batters. Some sloppy fielding contributed to the lopsided score. Sarnia came out flat and had only 4 hits in the game - by Dom Bucci, Curt Robichaud, Nate Havers, and Josh Taylor.  The second half of the twin bill was much closer as the Braves fell again 7 - 3,  although the game was 3 - 2 until the 6th inning. Austin Lanteigne, Jake Marks, and Josh Taylor shared pitching duties for Sarnia. They allowed 9 hits and struck out 6 hitters, while allowing 8 walks. Sarnia also managed only 4 hits in this game - Dom Bucci, Arron Sisson, Joe Frayne, and Nate Havers.
 

On a brighter note, the Bantam Braves clinched first place in the London and District Baseball League with a 20 - 2 record. The LDBA playoffs start Friday night in London against an as of yet undetermined opponent.

 

Next action for Sarnia is this Tuesday at 7:30 pm at Blackwell Park vs. Wyoming.
