Weyburn Beavers

The Weyburn Beavers returned to the diamond Wednesday night, looking to pick up another win over the Red Sox in Regina. The Red Sox, though, would be the ones to come out on top, picking up a 7-1 victory.  

The Weyburn Beavers snapped a six-game losing streak Sunday night, as they held on to beat the Regina Red Sox 4-3.  

The Beavers were helped by a strong performance on the mound from Jace Wessels. The pitcher from Clarkston, Washington went seven innings, striking out six, and allowing three runs on eight hits. From there, Anthony Portcellato and Matthew Armendariz took over for the eighth inning. They would keep the Red Sox off the board. 

Tom Laing Park has now been the scene of two no-hitters since 2019 in WCBL play. For the Weyburn Beavers, unfortunately, this time they were on the receiving end of the pitching performance Saturday night. 

A rally in the eighth inning from the visiting Sylvan Lake Gulls ended the chance for the Weyburn Beavers to end their losing streak Friday night. The Gulls scored seven runs in the inning, overcoming a 3-1 deficit in the process. Sylvan Lake went on to hold off a rally from the Beavers to win 8-7.

In last night’s double header between the Weyburn Beavers and the Swift Current 57s, Weyburn was defeated in both games. 

The Beavers fell 8-3 in game 1, and 6-4 in game 2. In the 1st game, both teams earned 1 run in the 8th inning, and had doubles in the 9th inning. Swift Current then had five runs in the 10th. In game 2, Swift Current earned 4 points in the 1st inning, and Weyburn was unable to close the gap. The two teams got 1 run in the 3rd and 5th innings, and Weyburn earned 2 in the 4th inning.

The Weyburn Beavers had their winning streak halted Sunday afternoon at Tom Laing Park, as they dropped a 10-4 decision to the Regina Red Sox. The Beavers found themselves stymied at the plate, only collecting four hits, while the Red Sox were able to navigate their way around the strike zone to get 14 hits off the pitching staff. 

Rain delays, walks and wild pitches could be the best way to describe the night for the Weyburn Beavers Saturday for the Weyburn Beavers. They would see their game in Moose Jaw interrupted by rain, which delayed the game for around an hour. The Beavers would be walked a total of 12 times over the course of the game, with two batters hit by a pitch and two wild pitches from Moose Jaw pitchers all helping to an 8-4 victory. 

It was a thriller that came down to the bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th inning Friday night. Just one pitch would change everything, and the Weyburn Beavers would come away with their third win in a row – a 6-5 victory over the Edmonton Prospects. 

Weyburn had built up a 5-1 lead before the Prospects rallied back in the eighth inning to tie the game up. Neither team was able to score in the ninth inning, forcing extra innings. 

The Weyburn Beavers made it two wins in a row at Tom Laing Park Thursday night. They limited the Edmonton Prospects to five hits, while Caelan Dalman and Koby Kropf went yard in a 2-1 win. 

“I love bombs,” said head coach Dusty Kerns after the game. “All my guys, they’ve got over the fence pop so I’m going to let them go.”
