Pile of Pirate Pitchers Pitch Almost Perfectly
Pirates 11
Cardinals 2
4 Pirate pitchers put together a display of excellence that even Cy Young would be impressed with. Ashton, Wakelyn, Bath & Loewen combined for a 2 hit, 6 inning beauty on Monday night against the Brandsma Cardinals.
Perhaps it was the sweet smell of backyard barbecues in the air or the constant hum of emergency vehicles – but the Pirates had their A game at Grant Park. Collecting 11 runs, the Pirates bats were electric – with 12 hits, capped by an impressive blast by Jakob Loewen.
Making his Base umping debut was highly touted, top ranked and ex-Pirate Ryan Johnson who called a flawless game around the bases.
