It was another tough week for the Bruno Merchants who failed to win either of their two contests on May 23.
After struggling to score a run in week one, the Merchants managed to cross the plate this week, piling up 20 runs, but are still in search of that illusive victory.
While the Merchants’ offense came alive this week, it was their pitching that let them down.
The early contest saw the Merchants score their first run of the season, and add six more but it was not enough as the Merchants fell 8-7 to the Saskatoon Poly Plus Angels.
After a short break the Merchants returned to the field to take on the Saskatoon WD Plastics Diamondbacks U23.
The Merchants’ offence exploded against the young Diamondbacks, as the Merchants scored 13 runs, but much like the first contest, the Merchants could not pull out the close win as they fell 14-13.
