Natties update for Wednesday

At the U19 Midget Nationals in Fredericton, in their only game of the day, the Wiarton Red Devils lost to Irma, Alberta in a battle of undefeated teams to drop to 4-1. Andy Barber started the game and was hurt in the first inning running the bases and was unable to continue. Get some ice on that skinny hamstring of yours Android!

In Napanee at the U23 Junior Nationals, the Napanee North Key Express started off the day with a 5-2 win over PEI. Cory Alkerton had the pitching win. Joel Langford had a single, a triple, scored a run and had two runs batted in. In the marquee game of the night, the defending champs faced Owen Sound in a battle for top spot. Napanee had a 3-1 lead going into the bottom of the seventh but blew it and the Selects won 4-3. Joran Graham went 1-3 with a walk while Joel Langford had a double, a triple and two runs batted in.
