All about Travis Flint

The Silhouette

For the second viagra buy online cheap year in a row, the outfield of Bernie Arbour stadium has been home to an All-Star. Following the lead of current coach Paul Saville, a 2012 centre-field All-Star and former teammate, this week it was announced that Travis Flint was voted best left-fielder in the game by a panel of the nine head coaches of the OUA men's baseball teams.

Flint, a Hamilton native and second-year commerce major, was an integral part of the Marauders baseball program this past season on both sides of the ball. After a solid rookie season last year in which he played seventeen games, the Marauders coaching staff played him a lot this year, as he appeared in all but one of McMaster's twenty-four games. Flint finished the year with the third highest batting average in the league at .390 and took the most at-bats for McMaster and third most in the league. He accounted for a stunning 22% of all of the McMaster runs to cross the plate and tied for the league lead at thirty-two hits, which was just less than one-fifth of the Marauder total for the year. He also stole sixteen bases, which was good for third in the league, and was only caught stealing twice.

Defensively, he led all left fielders with 33 putouts, and was nearly perfect with a .972 fielding percentage.

Likely up next for Flint is the OUA Baseball Showcase. Though the details have not been announced, the annual event pits the OUA All-Stars and some outstanding players who barely missed making the list against the reigning OUA baseball champions, the Laurier Golden Hawks, who won the OUA Championships in Guelph, Ont. on Oct. 20, 2013.
