Guardians Find the Win Column.
The Hampton Guardians put together a complete effort Monday night, knocking off the Saint John Mariners 6-3 at Memorial Field. Solid defence, timely hitting, and a strong performance on the mound helped the Guardians secure the SNBBL victory.
Hampton came out swinging, putting up four runs in the opening frame. Rookie, Mason Summerville delivered an RBI single while veteran Jamie Reynolds worked a bases-loaded walk, and the Guardians took advantage of opportunities to quickly build a lead. Summerville added another RBI in the second inning as Hampton extended the advantage to 5-0. Second year stud, Micah Seely, was a menace in the base paths, scoring 2 runs for the Guards while proving over and over that his elite outfield defence is second to none in the SNBBL.
Hampton native, Ben Jardine, was laser focused and stellar on the mound, battling through 5⅔ innings while striking out four to earn the win. “The Hoff”, Adam Hebert, came on in relief and calmly closed things out over the final four outs.
At the dish, Summerville led the way with two hits and two RBIs, while Bennett Godfrey also collected a pair of hits. Defensively, the Guardians continued to flash the leather and Godfrey turned a crucial 6-3 double play to close things out in the bottom of the 7th.
Another night, another team effort.
The veterans continue to lead and the young core continues to contribute. The Guards coaching staff feel this dub is just one of many to come.
The Guardians are back in action with a busy home weekend ahead, facing the Dieppe Cardinals on Friday night at Vets Field at 6:30pm, then welcoming the Metro Mudcats for a double dip on Saturday beginning at noon.
See you at the park!
