NSRBL championship will be decided in game 3 in Wilkie

Wilkie fans are excited for the last baseball game of the season to be on home field, playing for a league championship

It's what the team has worked towards all season, the chance to capture the North Saskatchewan River Baseball League title. The opportunity comes with the advantage of a home field game.

Following the opening series loss to Standard Hill Lakers in game one, the Brewers dug deep and returned for game two re-energized and determined to create a deciding game three. The Brewers stunned the Lakers in a decisive 17-3 victory assuring the Brew Crew the opportunity to capture the league championship on home diamonds.

Excitement has been building in Wilkie all day, Aug. 17, as home town fans are eagerly anticipating the chance to see their home team win a championship.

Kelvin Colliar, outgoing NSRBL Commissioner, will be at the game ready to hand out the league trophy one last time. Colliar will be inducted into the Sask. Baseball Hall of Fame on Aug. 20.
