D-Backs battle Joneses

Published: June 10, 2010

Five weeks after helping the Vipers claim their second straight Royal Bank Cup, hockey stars Connor and Kellen Jones are back on the diamond.

Huge baseball lovers, the twins and the Trail Orioles face the Vernon ANAF Diamondbacks in a doubleheader Saturday (2 p.m.) at Marshall Field.

Trail is coming off a strong start to the Okanagan Major Baseball League season, including three mercy-rule victories against the expansion Penticton Pirates, one of which was a Connor Jones no-hitter.

The D-Backs enjoyed a strong 6-0 start to the season.

“We are playing good baseball, but we’re up against some pretty good teams (Kelowna Jays and Kamloops Sun Devils),” said pitcher Kyle Anderson.

“We need to play perfect baseball in order to beat those teams.”

The Diamondbacks fell 13-4 to the Kelowna Jays on Wednesday night at Elks Stadium, committing seven errors.

“We didn’t have our best defensive game,” said shortstop Oggie “The eighth inning was our downfall.”
