M.L. Sox work hard to beat Macklin 11-6
An early lead and a late game comeback meant an exciting game for Meadow Lake’s Sr. White Sox on Sunday.
The team was in Macklin for an evening game against the Lakers on June 10. While the Sox led the way most of the game and were sitting at 6-1 in the sixth inning, a late snag in pitching filled the Lakers’ bases. Instead of losing momentum, the Sox pulled up their cleat strings and took the field back, ending the seven-inning match up with a score of 11-6.
Team manager Kevin Gerwing said despite a late-game pitcher switch, the game was overall a good one.
“We brought in Jordan Oystrick and he was able to close the door,” he said. “We scratched on another five runs with Dryden Beaubien getting a bit hit that cashed in a pair. Todd Fiddler played solid second base, for the first time he’s played that position.”
