The Nanaimo Bars Fell In A 10-3 Loss
NANAIMO, BC — It seemed to be Aerosmith day at Serauxmen Stadium as the Nanaimo Bars fell in a 10- 3 loss in front of 627 fans against the Wenatchee AppleSox. “Walk this way” for seven combined walks from the pitching staff to first base. It was not a good day for starting pitcher Moosa Nonomiya, who just went 1.1 innings and gave up four runs.

Nanaimo was down four runs after the 1st inning and was never able to get back in the game. Despite a couple of good rallies in the 3rd and 4th innings, the NightOwls were only able to muster one run in each. The pitching staff just didn’t have it on Sunday afternoon, and it put the batters in a tough spot. The NightOwls also hit two batters, that’s 9 free passes to first base. It’s hard to win with mistakes like that.
There were a couple of bright spots on the offensive side of the ball for the Nanaimo NightOwls. 3rd basemen Drew Gianni, who was making his debut, went three for five with a run. He should provide a solid bat going forward. Brady Morse, a native of Danville, Kentucky, also had a decent day at the plate, going two for four with an RBI and a run. Not to be outdone, Talan Zenk also went two for four and added a Stolen Base and an RBI.
