Record Improves to 3-1 After Several Cancellations

On Wednesday June 5th the Supers were supposed to host the Yorkton Marlins. Unfortunately the Marlins informed the Supers three hours before game time that they did not have enough players, so the game ended up being forfeited. It'll go down as a 7-0 Supers victory 

The Monday June 10 game scheduled vs the Parkland Pirates was rained out. Also on Thursday June 13 the game scheduled in Yorkton vs the Saltcoats Lakers was postponed due to the field being too wet from the heavy rains the night before.

On Friday June 14, the Supers were finally able to play a game since May 27. It was a beautiful evening in Yorkton as the Marlins were the opposition. After three innings the Supers trailed 2-0, with the bats only able to come up with one hit and nine strikeouts. But in the top of the fourth the offence awakened for three runs on five hits to take the lead. The Marlins took the lead right back in the bottom half, but the Supers put up four in the fifth and never looked back in a 7-4 win.

Kholton Shewchuk started on the mound and went two innings, allowing two runs on two hits. Derek Palagian came in relief for two innings, also allowing two runs on three hits with three strikeouts to pick up the win. Kody Rock finished off, striking out seven batters in three innings, including an immaculate inning (three strikeouts on nine pitches) to earn the save.

Although the bats started extremely cold, they were able to come up with seven runs on eleven hits. Rock led the way with two singles and an rbi triple. Palagian had two singles and two rbi. Dylan Toffan had two singles and an rbi. Nate Wolos had a two rbi double, while the Morin brothers (Maison and Hunter) from Hudson Bay each had one single.

The win puts the Supers at 3-1 on he season. Next action is Wednesday, June 19 as the Saltcoats Lakers pay a visit to Al Sapieha Field for the first time since 2007.
