"Mackie is back in town"

"Mackie is back in town", as the legendary Colour Commentator Ed Myers would say… you heard it right. The Chatham-Kent Barnstormers are excited to announce that Robert Mackie is returning for his third season in CK.
At 27 years old, Mackie continues to be one of the most versatile and fearless players in the lineup.
Check out his career highlights in CK:
• .357 OBP
• .710 OPS
• 4 home runs
• Defensive flexibility all over the diamond
• And an eye-popping 17 hit-by-pitches in just over 200 plate appearances
Barnstormers hitters don’t mind taking one for the team… Mackie just takes it to another level.
And in 2025? It had some signature Mackie moments:
June 14: Down a run, Mackie launches a towering 2-run homer to flip the game and power Barnstormers to victory.
July 26 in Barrie: The middle man in a historic 5-4-3 Triple Play (Vaselenak Mackie Sillett) - the first triple play in Barnstormers history.
Clutch bat.
Tough as nails.
Do-it-all defender.
Mackie is back... and so is that edge.
Welcome back to the Barnstormers, Mackie!
