Late home run leads Giants over Canadians Flanagan round-tripper in bottom of sixth leads to 7-6 Giants win in Rambler Park fastball league action Randy Palmer - Moose Jaw Express
Like the weather, the battle for Moose Jaw supremacy in the Rambler Park men’s fastball league continues to heat up as the season goes on. Their most recent meeting this past Tuesday at Lyle Helland Ball Diamond offered the most recent example. Brad Flanagan hit a solo home run in the bottom of the sixth inning, and starter Al Muhle retired the side in order in the seventh to give the Giants a 3-2 victory. Brett Friesen and Jason Schneider scored the Giants’ other runs in the third inning, but the Canadians would claw those back the next two frames. Bryce Crosbie led off the fourth with a triple and scored, Riley Almasi added the tying run in the top of the fifth. Muhle allowed six hits on the night and struck out five to earn the win; the Giants had nine hits off Canadians pitcher Dean Holoien, who capped the contest with 14 strikeouts.
Both teams picked up ties on Thursday night in Regina, as the Canadians drew 3-3 with the Standing Buffalo Dakotas and the Giants ended up in an 11-11 draw with the Earl Grey Rockets. The Giants now sit second in the Rambler Park standings with a 5-2-2 record, the Canadians third at 5-3-1. The Giants are back in action Tuesday, July 20 when they face the Regina Gold at 7 p.m. at Memorial Field while the Canadians take on the Earl Grey Rockets at Al Muhle delivers for the Gi9 p.m. ants earlier this season.

The opening marks the completion of Phase One of the project, with Phase Two seeing the installation of indoor beach volleyball courts at the back of the facility, and Phase Three covering ancillary items like a weight-training facility, bleachers and upgrades to the air-conditioning system. That’ll all be work for the future, though. In the meantime, it’s right to business. The first Golden Ticket basketball camp began on Monday, July 19, and the facility will be busy right through the first week of August. Word is already getting out, too, with inquiries coming from all angles about renting the facility. “The challenge for us is to manage it all since everyone wants the same amount of time,” Brightman said. “People have been awesome reaching out and letting us know
and as we kind of get up and rolling here we’ll circle back and fill up the calendar.” It’s all as positive a development as possible for the building, which not too long ago was facing questions as to whether or not it would face demolition. City of Moose Jaw recreation services manager Scott Osmachenko was one of those on hand Friday to check things out, and like everyone, was impressed with what he saw. “It’s wonderful, just the smell of fresh paint, it seems like it’s brand new and then there’s the hardwood floor and all the finishing… it’s impressive,” he said. “You walk in the building and it’s still like the curling club, but it’s not. It just seems bigger with the glass and the lights and how everything is set up. The sporting needs of the community are definitely being met with this facility.”
