The Storyline
Humber baseball (3-1, 3rd OCAA) will host its 2022 home opener on Sept. 16 against the Sheridan Bruins (2-2, 5th OCAA). First pitch is scheduled for 5 p.m. and will be streamed live on the Hawks Sports network.
Last Time Out
The Hawks split a crucial doubleheader with St. Clair (3-1, 3rd OCAA) down in Windsor against the defending provincial champions. After dropping game one, Brandon Deans earned his first victory as Hawks, going the distance and striking out 10. Hudson Lockwood and Dylan White paced the way at the dish, recording two RBIs each.
Scouting Sheridan

Ohtani-san
In his first pitching appearance since 2018, Aidan Murphy threw the sixth no-hitter in program history. The Brampton native struck out ten Lambton hitters and went 2-for-3 at the dish with an RBI and a double. The next day Murphy went yard for the first time this season – the sixth of his career.

Second-year infielder Jaykob Turner is red-hot at the dish through his first four games, pacing the OCAA with a .700 batting average. Three of his seven hits have gone for extra bases, including a three-run home run against St. Clair.
