Well, the Battalions first inning woes continues in drastic fashion yet again on Tuesday night. Tom Peake got his 2nd start of the season and did not get out of the first. When it was all over it was 9-0 Panthers after 1. The 2nd inning was not much better, seeing 5 Panthers cross, making it 14-0 after 2. That would be the final score as there was no coming back from that.

Peake got off to another shaky start, walking the first 3 batters he faced. His final line was 0.2IP, 7ER, 3H, 1K, 4BB. Sam Brown then came in to make his season debut and did not fare much better going 1.1IP, 4ER, 2H, 1K, 6BB. Ben Milinkovich then came in to throw the last two innings and did not allow a run, seeing only one over the minimum while striking out 3.

The offence continued its anaemic state mustering 0 runs on only 5 hits. In the top of the first the Battalion had a baserunner on 3rd with no out and could not score him. Kyle Craig was once again the lone bright spot, going 2-for-3 with a single and a double.

The Battalion need to regroup quickly as they take on the Nepean Brewers on Thursday night.

In almost a carbon copy of the season opener last year, the Battalion dropped their opener 13-7 to the Kanata Athletics. The Battalion fell behind the eight-ball early, allowing 12 runs in the first two innings.

NCBL rookie Tom Peake got the start for the Battalion and only last 2 innings, giving up 12 runs (9 earned) on 8 walks and 5 hits. He walked the first three batters of the game before striking out the next two. He was one strike away from getting out of the inning before a wild pitch allowed a run to score. The next pitch was hit to first base where a throwing error allowed 2 more runs to score.

Braden McGinnis made his Battalion debut and pitched 2 scoreless innings, while striking out 3. Matt MacIntyre came in for the final 2 innings, allowing 1 run while fanning 3.

The offence started out well as Kyle Craig led off the bottom of the 1st with a single, and was driven in on the next pitch on a triple by Josh Jones. After that the Battalion were only able to muster 2 more hits as MacIntyre and Ben Milinkovich had back to back singles in the bottom of the 4th.

The Battalion were able to draw 12 walks of their own, including 6 in the final inning to make the final 13-7

The Battalion are back at it on Tuesday night against the defending champion Panthers.
