MICKSBURG – Corey Costello settled the men’s regional fastball final with one swing of the bat on a long and cold Friday night in Micksburg.

In the bottom of the eighth extra inning, Costello ripped a solo home run over the fence in centre field to give the Twins a 1-0 win in what was essentially game three of the series.

After Kanata won game two, the teams played sudden-death extra innings to determine the series winner.

In a serious pitching duel, Costello battled with Kanata’s Dan Konkle, both fanning batters in order.

Through 15 innings Konkle struck out 29, gave up seven hits and only one run.

Costello fanned 17 batters, surrendered three hits and four runs.

The Twins had the best chance to end the extra innings in the bottom of the 11th after Costello slapped a leadoff triple. Kanata put both Jamey Mick and Brad Steege on base with intentional walks to load the bases. But the gamble paid off as Konkle battled back to strike out Kerr Childerhose, Brent McIntyre and Dwight Mick to escape the inning.

The Greater Ottawa Fastball League champion Kanata Team Easton won game two of the regional final 4-0.

After four scoreless innings, Team Easton got out to a 3-0 lead in the top of the fourth on a RBI single by Randy Peck and a two- run homer by John Peck.

In the sixth Kevin Chevrier doubled and scored on a Randy Peck RBI groundout to put Kanata up 4-0..
