Lethbridge, AB – 

Stranded runners and way too many lazy fly balls were the story in a couple of losses to finish up the round robin.

Game 2 was a similar tail with the Jets coming out on the losing side 4-0.  Connor Green started on the mound going 4 1/3 innings allowing 4 hits, 4 runs with 2 earned runs, 3 BB’s and 4 K’s.  Kaiden Cardoso finished things off going 1 2/3 innings allowing 2 hits with 1 K.  Offensively, the Jets were led by Owen Harms who was 1 for 3.  Cooper Jones was 1 for 3.  Kaiden Cardoso was 1 for 3 and Matt Rath rounded out the offense going 1 for 3.
