Peewee Astros Hold Off Panthers For Road Win
Jordan Visneskie, Ryan Hubbard, and Josh French all saw action on the mound on July 30th in Kitchener as the Mitchell Stratford RV Peewee OBA Astros added five insurance runs in the top of the 7th to beat the Kitchener Panthers 8-3 in ICBA action.

The Astros got on the board right away in the first inning as Josh French hit a one-out single, stole second, and scored on Dominic Marshall's RBI groundout.  Kitchener would tie it up in the next inning, but Mitchell would regain the lead in the top of the third as Jarrett Van Bakel and Marshall would both score.  Things were pretty quiet for the next few innings until Mitchell came to bat in the top of the seventh holding a 3-2 lead, scoring five insurance runs to help secure the win.  Caleb Templeman, Hubbard, and Carson Harmer all had consecutive base hits to start the rally, each scoring along with Visneskie and Marshall.
The locals will enjoy a long weekend break before action resumes again on Monday Aug 5th in Brantford, followed by Wed Aug 7th in Kitchener to close out the regular season schedule.
