FAWCETTS LOSE HEARTBREAKER IN SEVENTH INNING
By Pat Healey
PRINCE GEORGE, B.C. – The Charlottetown Fawcetts bats were strong, but Saskatoon Aspen Interior Black Sox Jason Hill came up big when he had to. With two out and the score tied 5-5 in the bottom of the seventh, Hill (2-4) hit a Mike Bishop offering over the centerfield fence into the beer garden to win the thrilling game 6-5 dropping Charlottetown’s record to 2-2 here at the 2006 Canadian Senior Men’s fast pitch championships. Jeff Ellsworth of Alberton led the Fawcetts attack, going 3-for-4 with a home run, three runs scored and two RBI.

Also tops for the Fawcetts were Jason MacDonald (1-3, run scored) and Jason Blanchard (1-3).

Twiliters are true masters of the game
by SCOTT STANFIELD, Special to the Citizen
The Stony Plain Twiliters have yet to win a game heading into this morning’s meeting with the Charlottetown Razzy’s Roadhouse Fawcetts.
But the Alberta team — competing in its first-ever Canadian senior A men’s fastpitch championship — is nevertheless looking forward to doing some damage this weekend in the championship round, even if they are destined for the lower half of the draw.
“We’re having a great time here, just a fantastic time here,†player/coach Kevin Lannon said Tuesday following a 6-2 loss to the host Prince George Black Bears. “This is the first time for most of us. We knew coming here we’d be in tough. We’ve been in some games, we’ve had some tough luck, but we’re working towards the weekend and we’ll see what we can do. (more…)
