LAST TIME OUT VS GEORGE BROWN

On the back end of doubleheader action last Wednesday at Christie Pits, it was the Hawks who completely dominated the game on both the offensive and defensive end of things on their way to sweeping the night. Humber scored all 15 runs in the first two innings of a five-inning mercy shortened game. On his way to his third win of the season, David Sigmund pitched the Hawks third no-hitter in history. Justin Marra had four hits and two runs batted in.

SCOUTING GEORGE BROWN

  • The Huskies bounced back against the second place team in the league on Sunday afternoon, narrowly dropping two one-run games to the defending champion St. Clair Saints
  • With the two losses and a win by Seneca over Fanshawe, the Huskies dropped to the bottom of the league. Seneca and George Brown each have two wins, but the Huskies have dropped 12
  • On Saturday, the Huskies and Seneca will play two games which may determine who places above the bottom of the standings at years end

  • Humber holds the league's best current consecutive win streak, at seven
  • They sit three runs behind St. Clair for the most scored this season, but are one run better in the defensive column
