As the evening games were getting underway, the rain began to fall, and fall heavily, which caused organizers to push back games to Saturday here at the Baseball Canada National Championships in Québec City.
All four championship divisions were affected as they each had to reschedule at least two games to Saturday. Some will resume from the point they were suspended while others were completely wiped out and will restart from the beginning.
In the games that were completed, Nova Scotia doubled Newfoundland and Labrador 4-2 at the midget championship. Elsewhere, Manitoba edged Saskatchewan 2-1 and the host team Québec City took the loss against British Columbia by a score of 3-2.
Logan Seifrit of Spruce Grove, Alberta threw a complete game with 17 strikeouts, but allowed seven runs on four hits as his Alberta team took the loss against New Brunswick 7-4 at the Pee-Wee championship.
In other Pee-Wee action, Saskatchewan beat Nova Scotia 3-1. Prince Edward Island earned a win against Newfoundland and Labrador by a final score of 9-6, Ontario crushed Manitoba 11-0 and British Columbia fell to Québec City 10-9.
Brodie MacDonald of Cornwall, P.E.I. dominated Newfoundland and Labrador, throwing a complete game and allowing only one run on two hits with four walks and nine strikeouts to earn the win by a 4-1 score in Bantam championship action.
Elsewhere, Alberta beat Nova Scotia 12-10. British Columbia dominated New Brunswick by a score of 11-1 and it was the same story between Québec City and Saskatchewan with the host team taking it, 14-4.
