HarbourCats, Riverhawks Set to Battle for WCL North Division Supremacy
August 3, 2025 - West Coast League (WCL)
Victoria HabourCats News Release
VICTORIA, BC - Four games. Wilson's Group Stadium. The two best teams in the North Division battling head-to head for the North Division title. You will not want to miss this!
The Victoria HarbourCats and Edmonton Riverhawks begin a four-game series on Monday afternoon that will ultimately decide the North Division's second-half winner, and quite possibly first place overall in the North. Along with those titles, comes a decided home field advantage in the first round of the playoffs next weekend and quite possibly home field advantage for the North Division final next Tuesday.
Entering play Sunday, the HarbourCats and Riverhawks sit tied for first in North in the second half, with identical 17-6 records. Overall the Riverhawks lead the North by 2 games over Victoria and 1.5 games over second place Bellingham, who have already punched their ticket to the playoffs by winning the first half of the season. So it is going to come right down to the wire to determine the final playoff seedings, which will also include the Wenatchee AppleSox who clinched a post-season berth last night. Let's pack the park and cheer the 'Cats on to the title!
If the baseball alone was not enough to get you to the park, this week is jam packed with some cool promotions!
MONDAY - Double Header and FIREWORKS with Joan Wallace Driving School!
It's 2 for 1 baseball starting at 4:00 PM as the 'Cats and Riverhawks make up a rain out from June 26th. Your ticket is good for both games and of course for our final fireworks show of the season beginning just after the completion of game two!
