Holy runs, Batman: U12 A Ice cruise to 23-8 win over Royals

Ice U12 Storm Maltais scores
Blake Maltais, here sliding home during a game this past weekend, scored four runs on Tuesday night.
The Moose Jaw Ice did just everything right at the plate in Regina Minor Softball League U12 A action on Tuesday night.

Facing the Regina Royals Raptors, the Ice would score the maximum number of runs in four of five innings and go on to a 23-8 victory in league action in Regina.

Regina managed to escape the first inning with only a three-run deficit, but things went crazy from there -- the Royals would record only three more outs the rest of the game and commit 12 errors as the Ice put up five runs in each inning before the mercy rule came into play after the fifth.

Zoey Chesney finished the game with a 3-for-4 night that included two runs scored and two runs batted in, while Gracelyn Blanchard was 2-for-2 with two runs and two RBI. Peyton Klemenz also crossed the plate twice and knocked in a pair; Blake Maltais scored four runs and Kensington Demassi knocked in three. Maltais, Kyra Menzies and Avery Garthus had three walks each.

Things were pretty simple on the mound for the Ice, as Marisa Montgomery got the start and allowed a single hit while striking out four over two innings. Kiarra Adrian allowed two runs on a hit and two walks in an inning of work, Demassi an unearned run while not giving up a hit and recording a walk and a strikeout before Taya Molde closed things out in the final frame.

The Ice improved to 7-3-1 and are back on the field Aug. 4 in a rematch with the Royals Raptors in Regina.
