Andreychuk, a rising junior at Seattle, is hitting .388 with 4 HR and 22 RBIs for Victoria (25-22). He helped lead the HarbourCats to a 5-1 week and positioned them for a run at the WCL wild card spot. Victoria and Yakima Valley (26-22) open a key three-game series tonight at Royal Athletic Park.

This past spring, Andreychuk put up impressive numbers for the Redhawks as a sophomore batting .306 with 11 doubles, 4 homers and 42 RBIs.
