The up-and-down season so far for the Howe Sound Cannons continued on Saturday (June 14).
Howe Sound hosted the last-place North Vancouver Blue Jays for a doubleheader and posted a 5-1 win in Game 1.
Jeremy 鈥淏ig Cat鈥� Galley was a stud at the plate and on the mound, as he opened the scoring with a two-run home run in the first inning and pitched a complete game with 10 strikeouts for the win.听
Justin 鈥淏ig Daddy鈥� Kraz contributed a solid offensive game, going three for four at the plate.听
Game 2 was a completely different story for the Cannons, as the team struggled defensively and offered little help to starting pitcher Jack Thompson.
Howe Sound committed seven errors over the course of the game, including four in the fourth inning that saw the Blue Jays score five runs. The Cannons also struggled offensively with only two runs on two hits and dropped the game 7-2.
The Cannons鈥� record stands at seven wins and five losses in North Shore Men鈥檚 Baseball Association (NSMBA) play and they are in second place in the league.听
Howe Sound returns to the diamond on Saturday (June 21) with a split doubleheader in North Vancouver as they battle both the Deep Cove Brewers and the Blue Jays. The next home games for the squad are on July 19 when the Vancouver Cardinals come to Laroy Watt field for a doubleheader.
