txt msg from Cory Morrison

The Stittsville 56ers evened their best-of-three GOFL semi-final series at one game apiece with a 7-0 win in five innings over the Kars Aces at the Grove on Wednesday night.

Darren Featherstone had the win while Brad Porter took the loss.

Game three to determine which team will move on to face the Quyon COMBAT Flyers in the GOFL final series will be determined shortly and posted as soon as confirmed.

Story now available from John Craig

Game 2 of the Kars Aces vs. Stittsville 56ers went last night the Grove.

The 56er bats finally awoke after a sleepy game one and they got on the board in the first. John Craig reached first and moved to second on a Dan Jessiman walk. Keeping the bats going Darren Featherstone then hit a line drive to left scoring Craig, and leaving himself and Jessiman at second and third. Dan Bradley followed that up with a 3 run home run to opposite field giving the 56ers a 4-0 nothing lead.

Dave Tubman hit a double in the top of the second and moved to third on wild pitch, but that was as far as he got.

Kars threatened again in the third when Scott Marion singled, moved to second on a wild pitch and Kristian Knapp drew a walk giving the Aces runners at 1st and 2nd with only one out. Fortunately for Stittsville Kevin Chevrier then hit a ground ball to third, Craig picked it up, touched third and fired to first for the double play ending the inning.

Kars kept coming though in the 4th when Chad Milne drew a walk and moved to third with nobody out. Tubman also drew a walk but Featherstone was throwing well and struck out two to get out of the inning unscathed.

In the top of the 5th Knapp hit a 2 out triple and Chevrier drew a walk as the Aces once again put runners in scoring position but Featherstone was able to get the third out without any damage.

The 56ers had been pretty quiet through 2nd and 3rd despite a D. Jessiman double until the 4th inning. Dan Bradley and Tyler Nystedt both singled but that was it as Brad Porter struck out two of the next three.

In the 5th Craig lead off with a double and was cashed in on D. Jessiman's second double of the game. Featherstone then singled scoring D. Jessiman and Scott Jessiman reached first on an error. Bradley then singled bringing in Featherstone to end the game 7-0.

Featherstone gets the win and Porter gets the loss.
