The Braves headed to the Island for 3 games over the past weekend. In the opener against the Victoria Red Eagles on Saturday the Braves lost a heartbreaker 3-2 in the bottom of the 7th after tying the game in the top of the 7th inning. Luke Petreny pitched another beauty, but so did the Eagles thrower Crust. The next day the Braves bats remained cold & some sloppy base-running halted any chances of gaining momentum, The Victoria Black Eagles got to Braves starter James Bradwell in the 3rd putting up 3 & followed that up with 3 more in the 4th to cruise to a 10-3 victory. In game 3 the Braves bats started to heat up & had a 3-0 lead but the Black Eagles put up 8 runs in the 3rd & again cruised to a 12-6 victory! Of note offensively this weekend was Michael Stovman going 6 for 8 with 2 doubles.
