SAINTS SPLIT AT SAGINAW
The Manistee Saints split a 4-game series with the Michigan Area Collegiate Braves over the weekend, losing the first 2 games on Saturday by scores of 5-1 and 9-3 and coming back to win both games on Sunday by scores of 5-0 and 10-2.
Saturday’s only bright spot for the Saints was a solo home run by Nick Brzezinski but the starting pitchers couldn’t find the strike zone and the Braves walked away with a pair of wins.
On Sunday, Robin Van Orden tossed a 3-hit shut-out and the Saints scored 4 runs in the 7th inning to seal the win in the first game while Alex Strickland led a 10-hit attack with 4 hits in the nightcap. Tyler Waslawski was the winning pitcher for the Saints.
The Saints return home next weekend for a 4-game series against the league leading Oil City Stags.
