“Going in (to the tournament) I knew we had a team that could get the job done,” said VanOstrand, a prospect of the Houston Astros. “It’s a good mix of veteran leadership and young upcoming players so I liked our chances. (But) I still don’t think it has really sunk in what we’ve accomplished and what it means for me personally, but I do know this has been a really special week.”
VanOstrand, 23, was nothing short of spectacular during the final Olympic qualifying tournament which was played in Taiwan. Playing first base for Team Canada, the 6-4, 220-pounder was 3-for-5 and scored five times in a 15-10 win over Mexico; went 2-for-3, homered, and scored twice in a 10-5 loss to Australia; and was 3-for-5 with an RBI in a 6-5 victory over host Taiwan.
