It'll go down as a loss, and will eliminate the Dauphin Clippers from Provincial Championship contention, but they sure didn't go down without a fight.
After a 16-5 win in their final pool play game to sneak into the quarterfinals, the Clippers had a tall task in the game against the #1 ranked Steinbach Regional Sabres.
The Sabres took a 3-2 lead after five innings, but extended that lead in the sixth, and held on in a 5-2 win.
They'll now play in the semifinals on Saturday against the other Parkland team in the tournament, Major Pratt.
