In the Austrian Baseball League only three games got into the books last weekend. The Stock City Cubs swept a doubleheader against the Vienna Neustadt Diving Ducks on Thursday. Derek Bettinson, Arian Quirantes (2) and Dave Wigham homered for the Cubs in the 12-9 game-one win. Bettinson collected four hits. In game two the team from Stockerau prevailed 4-2 behind a strong start of Moritz Hackl, who gave up just four hits in six innings, out-pitching Wayne Ough.
On Saturday both teams met again. This time however the Diving Ducks had the better ending with a 14-4 blowout in eight innings. Game two got rained out. Also the matchups between the Vienna Metrostars and the Dornbirn Indians, as well as the Athletics Attnang-Puchheim and Vienna Wanderers were postponed.
