Swift Current's Brody Alexandre and Team Sask's 17U baseball squad dropped their opener at the Canada Cup yesterday in Moncton/Dieppe, New Brunswick.

Team Sask led 3-0 after five innings of the game, but lost 7-3 to Team Ontario in the first of six round robin contests.

Alexandre went 1-for-3 with a double and a strikeout, batting clean-up. He added a pair of putouts on the defensive end at third base as well.

Alexandre and Team Sask have a match-up with Team Quebec in their second game this morning.
