It was a tough weekend for the Werribee Giants on the diamond in the Baseball Victoria Summer League division 2.
After a first up win, the Giants found the going tougher on Sunday against Ormond Glenhuntly.
In a low scoring game, Ormond Huntley won 3-0.
Giants’ president David Bishop-Worn said it was a pretty disappointing result for the side.
“Our bats didn’t fire unfortunately,” he said. “We also made a couple of errors which resulted in the opposition scoring runs.
“We’ll have more of a focus on batting this week and just try and bounce back for next week.”
Bishop-Worn said Trent Pantalleresco pitched well before being relieved by youngster Addison Bishop-Worn
He said for Addison to be pitching in the first side, while still playing under-18s was a really good effort.
The Giants are one of five teams with one win after the first two rounds.
The Giants men’s sides struggled across all divisions on the weekend, with all suffering losses.
It was a better weekend for the women’s team which beat the Mitchell Majors, 14-5.
They have won both their matches so far.
“They are improving week by week and the extra training sessions they are doing is working,” Bishop-Worn said.
“They are a great bunch of girls”
The women’s side this week faces the Geelong Baycats, while the men’s side is at home to Doncaster.
