RED SOX 7 MILLIONAIRES 4

Home cooking seemed to agree with the Regina Red Sox as they beat the Melville Millionaires 7-4 Saturday night. The win ended a three game losing streak.

Just under 800 fans were treated to a gorgeous night and a great baseball game under the lights at Currie Field.

Red Sox starter Parks Smithey faced 28 batters in his six innings of work. Smithey gave up four hits and struck out two on his way to ringing up his fourth win.

Kendal Daniels and Mike Thill each pitched a scoreless inning of relief before giving way to closer Louis Cohen, who came on in the ninth to pick up the save.

Regina put on an offensive clinic pounding out 11 hits including a home run from slugger Brandon Vaughn. Vaughn finished the night two for three with a walk, two runs scored and three RBIs.

The Red Sox were not the only big winner Saturday night. Lucky ticket holder Terry Fox went home with the Big Apple Raffle prize.

Regina will have Sunday off but then will look to continue their winning ways at Currie Field as they host the Swift Current Indians on Monday night.
