Ironbirds Extend Win Streak to Ten
Minor Mosquito Ironbirds Win 10th Straight Game

Looking to secure 4th place in the LDBA league standings the Ingersoll Ironbirds travelled to Thorndale to take on the Dorchester Diamondbacks.  Taking the bump for the Ironbirds was southpaw Colten Cumberland who was dominate in his four innings of work striking out eight Dorchester batters. Ingersoll managed to score three runs in top of the third inning when Brandon Plaquet walked, then advanced and scored on back to back singles by Cumberland and Tanner Belore.  Gavin Wright then loaded the bases with his infield single, to set the table for Sam House two RBI double into the gap.  Dorchester made a small run behind a couple Ironbird errors and were able to capitalize scoring three runs for a 4-3 Ironbird lead.   In the top half of the 6th inning the Ingersoll boys scored another three runs to provide a bit of a cushion when Brody Huitema ripped a line drive double to the gap.  Declan Minielly was once again spectacular in relief keeping the Diamondback batters off balance in his three innings of relief.   The top half of the 7th inning the Ironbirds blew the doors off the game as they were able to bat around the order lead by Tanner Belore and his two key hits that kept the inning alive.  
Ingersoll went onto win the game 15-5 and extend their winning streak to 10 games.

The Ironbirds will travel to Strathroy tonight to close out their LDBA Regular Season.   First pitch is set for 6:00pm
