HarbourCats Add Pitching Depth for Stretch Run
August 4, 2014 - West Coast League (WCL)
Victoria HabourCats News Release
The Victoria HarbourCats have added more 'Victoria' to the equation for the final six games of the regular season.
The HarbourCats have added four current or former Eagles PBL team pitchers to the roster for the remainder of the 2014 West Coast League schedule.
RHP Eric Hegadoren, who just completed participating with the Victoria Mavericks senior baseball team at provincials in Trail, will join the HarbourCats for the final home series against the Kitsap BlueJackets, which takes place Friday through Sunday at Sports Traders Diamond. Hegadoren started the season with the HarbourCats as a 10-day player. Hegadoren is not able to be with the team for the series in Walla Walla that starts on Tuesday.
Also signed to bolster the bullpen options are three graduating Victoria Eagles players -- Drew Davidoff, Dallas Patterson and Riley Edmunds. All three will be on the road trip to Walla Walla and will stay with the HarbourCats through the conclusion of the regular season.
Davidoff was 0-3 with a 6.87 ERA in 14 games, including two starts, for the Eagles this season. Edmonds started nine games, including two complete games, and appeared in 10 games with a 4-3/3.17 mark. Patterson saw action in 12 games, starting nine times and completing five games, and was 8-0 with a 2.24 ERA.
The HarbourCats will be without RHP Ryan Keller for the rest of the season due both to injury and academic issues, while RHP Mikey Wright will not be available for the final home series due to a requirement he has in returning to school in California. OF Wyler Smith is also available only to hit for this next series due to a shoulder ailment.
Friday's game is Mike's Hard Lemonade Military Appreciation Night presented by BELL Media, and Saturday's game is Wallace Driving School Fireworks presented by CHEK-TV. Sunday, an afternoon game, is Pure Day Spa Fan Appreciation game.
