Weyburn Beavers

Despite controlling the pace of play for the majority of the game, and outshooting the visiting Melfort Mustangs, the Richardson Pioneer Weyburn Red Wings would run into a hot goalie, and ended up falling 2-1 at Crescent Point Place Saturday night. 

"This was a much better effort than last weekend, and I truly do believe that things are going the right way here," Red Wings head coach Cody Mapes said after the game. "We're disappointed in the outcome; we're definitely not disappointed in the effort and the details."

The game last night between the Weyburn Beavers and the Swift Current 57s had the potential to see some record-breaking moments. The two teams combined for 31 runs – the 2nd most runs scored in a WCBL game at Tom Laing Park, and the 4th most in the league this season – as the Beavers outlasted the visitors for a 17-14 victory. Weyburn’s Ryan Dauphinee also entered the game two hits from setting a new franchise record for career hits.  

The Weyburn Beavers carried the momentum from their win at home Tuesday into Regina last night and came away with a big win over the Red Sox. Thanks in part to a seven-run 4th inning, which included a grand slam from River Smith, the Beavers beat the Red Sox 14-11.  

The Weyburn Beavers have now won three consecutive games at home after a thrilling 5-4 extra-innings win over the Saskatoon Berries last night. 

“I think, you know, pitchers kept us in it,” said Beavers head coach Cam Williams after the game. “They did really well. Defense was really sharp too, and although the bats weren’t there to start, they really kind of figured it out and clicked at the end there. Overall, a really big team win.” 

Fans at Tom Laing Park got a little bit of everything Thursday night: a pitchers’ duel, home runs, and a thrilling finish. Halen Otte would hit an RBI double to left field in the 11th inning as the Weyburn Beavers walked off the Medicine Hat Mavericks 4-3.  

The Weyburn Beavers held the lead for most of the game last night against the Okotoks Dawgs, but errors would give the Dawgs an opening in the later innings. Over the final three innings, the visitors would score six runs to jump out to a 9-3 win over the Beavers.  

The Weyburn Beavers found themselves up against the top team in the WCBL Tuesday night, as the Okotoks Dawgs opened a two-game set with the Beavers at Tom Laing Park. The two teams would be evenly matched until the 7th inning when Okotoks scored four runs to take the lead and held on for an 8-5 victory.  

The Weyburn Beavers returned to action after the WCBL All-Star Game Monday night with a doubleheader in Saskatoon. The Beavers would come out on the wrong side of the scoreboard in the opening game of the day falling 5-3, but bounced back in the second game with a 7-3 win.  

It was a strong showing for the Weyburn Beavers at the WCBL All-Star game in Okotoks on Saturday.  

The Beavers had five representatives on the East Division squad. Niko Kekatos, Ian Heck, Ryan Muizelaar, Halen Otte, and Owen McConnell were all dressed in the game, with four of the players making an appearance.  

The Weyburn Beavers were looking to make it two wins in a row over the Swift Current 57s Thursday night when the teams took to the field at Tom Laing Park Thursday night. Swift Current’s Jose Ayala had different ideas, however. He would finish the game a triple short of the cycle and drove in four runs to help power the 57s to a 9-5 victory, avenging Weyburn’s 8-5 win Tuesday night.
