HOW IT HAPPENED

The Canadians scored their first run in the bottom of the first when RHP Michael Limoncelli balked with a runner on third. Later that inning, DJ Neal hit an RBI single to shortstop, driving in Spencer Horwitz and extending Vancouver’s lead to 2-0.

Ryan Gold hit a solo home run in the bottom of the sixth, scoring the third and final run of the game. Canadian pitching proved to be dominant, facing no more than five AquaSox batters in an inning and striking out 12 total.

WRAPPING IT UP

At the plate, the AquaSox registered four hits, highlighted by doubles from Jack Larsen and Patrick Frick; Zach DeLoach and Cody Grosse each singled once. On the mound, RHP Stephen Kolek pitched the majority of the game, striking out four and allowing one earned run. RHP Fred Villarreal pitched the final 2.2 innings, striking out four while giving up no hits, walks or runs.
