Adam Hall and his Canadian Junior National Teammates held their own on the defensive side of the ball getting some solid pitching a defence but couldn’t manufacture much on the offensive side as the Baltimore Orioles prospects earned a 3-0 win.
It didn’t take the Orioles long to get on the scoreboard as a lead off homer that cleared the wall in left-centre gave them an early 1-0 lead after one inning.
A lead off double to start the third came around to score after a passed ball followed by an RBI single to centre, with the infield drawn in, to put the Orioles up by two.
After pitching two scoreless innings to start his three-inning outing, Harley Gollert allowed a leadoff double in the sixth that came around to score on an RBI single to right.
Harley Gollert turned in a solid performance on the mound for the Juniors tossing two scoreless frames before giving up a run in the sixth. He struck out four batters.
After starting the seventh inning with a walk and single, followed by a wild pitch to put runners on second and third, reliever Austin Brown retired six batters in a row over two scoreless innings. Brown registered two strikeouts.
Leadoff batter Cooper Davis reached base in all four of his plate appearances including a bunt single, base hit to left, walk and reached on an error with two out in the ninth. He also added a stolen base to his stat line.
Hall who drew a walk, also stole a base.
