Victoria HabourCats News Release


VICTORIA, B.C. - The Victoria HarbourCats welcomed the Dub Sea Fish Sticks to town for non-league action, and it was the visitors who came out on top, winning 12-4.

The Fish Sticks jumped out to an early lead, putting two runs on the board in the top of the first inning, including a Matt Churchill RBI double.

Jai Berezowski (Golden Tide) hit his fourth home run of the campaign in the bottom of the second, a two-run shot, to tie up the ballgame.

Declan Brown (Wenatchee Valley) made his first HarbourCats appearance of the season and drove in a pair with a double to cap off the big second inning, making it 4-2.

Churchill continued his strong night with a solo home run in the top of the third to cut the deficit in half.

Clayton Broeder (Angelo State) started the game for the Cats and went three innings, giving up three runs on three hits while striking out three and walking four.

Jake Finkelstein (Georgia Gwinnett) replaced Broeder to start the fourth inning and found himself in a jam, walking the bases loaded. A pair of hits, including another Churchill double, mixed in with some poor defence allowed the Fish Sticks to plate four runs in the frame, giving the visitors a 7-4 lead.

Finkelstein pitched a scoreless fifth inning but surrendered five runs in the sixth, which gave Dub Sea a resounding 12-4 lead.

The Fish Sticks bullpen shut things down from there, shutting out the Cats for the final seven innings.

Marcus Janovsky (UBC) pitched the final three innings for Victoria, giving up no runs on one hit while striking out a pair.
