RED SOX FALL BEHIND 2-1 TO BEAVERS

The Weyburn Beavers used the long ball to defeat Regina 10-3 at Currie Field Wednesday in game 3 of the Eastern Division final. Corey Weaton and Corey Harrell homered while Felix Correa added a three run triple to power the Beavers offence.

The victory gives Weyburn a 2-1 lead in the Best-of-5 WMBL East Final.

Wheaton finished the night with four hits, three runs scored and a RBI. Regina’s speedy outfielder Wesley Moss led off with a triple in the first inning and scored Regina’s first run.

Manager Mitch MacDonald sent Peyton Burks, the senior from Arkansas Pine Bluff, to the hill to start for the Red Sox. Burks, who took the loss, threw five innings giving up nine runs on 11 hits before handing the game over to Bryan Raymond.  The Arizona product had a very respectable four inning relief appearance allowing one run on four hits while striking out three.

Lefty Landon Mostellar started for the Weyburn Beavers and earned a seven inning victory. The Clarksville, TN native surrendered two earned runs on four hits and three walks. He also struck out four of the 29 batters he faced.

Ken Williams came on in the eighth inning to finish out the game for the Beavers.

Game 4 goes Thursday at 7:05 pm at Regina's Currie Field.
