Vancouver Canadians News Release
(Scotiabank Field at Nat Bailey Stadium - Vancouver, B.C.) - Canadians 1B Trevor Schwecke went 3-for-5 with three RBI while RHP Alex Nolan went six strong innings to help pace Vancouver to a 5-2 victory over Tri-City on Saturday night to open up a six-game home stand.
Nolan, making his first start of the season, got through his first four innings without allowing a run before Alison Quintero smacked an RBI double in the top of the 5th that opened up the scoring.
Trevor Schwecke slammed a double off the center field wall in the bottom of the 5th inning that scored both Tanner Morris (single) and C Yorman Rodriguez (error) that gave the Canadians their first lead of the night.
Nolan's final frame in the 6th saw the Burlington, ON native give up a solo home run to Jordy Barley which proved to be the only runs he would give up on the night. Nolan scattered seven hits and left a 2-2 game handing the ball over to the bullpen that featured two scoreless innings from RHP Parker Caracci who struck out five and RHP Mike Pascoe who struck out the side in the 9th to lock down the victory.
