VANCOUVER, BC – Tuesday night at The Nat was not a game you would show alien visitors when they arrive on our planet and ask, “What is this ‘baseball’ you speak of?”

The Canadians and Hillsboro Hops [AZ] combined on 26 walks, four errors, three half innings with nine or more coming to the plate and a position player pitching in a three hour and 47-minute slog that the C’s won 15-9. Vancouver led wire-to-wire to win their third straight, the team’s longest win streak on the young season.

Highlights from the night include:

  • A three-run bottom of the first that featured a two-RBI double from MLB Pipeline’s #19 Blue Jays prospect Sean Keys.
  • Five runs in the third, with big hits from Cutter Coffey (two RBI single) and Keys (RBI single).
  • A strong showing from reliever Pat Gallagher (W, 1-0): 1.1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 0 BB, 3 K.
  • Five more runs in the eighth courtesy of RBI singles from Nick Goodwin, Victor Arias and Coffey.

A run was scored by one or both teams in every inning except the fourth and the fifth. Everyone in the lineup for both teams contributed a hit, a run, an RBI or a walk, or some combination thereof.

With the win, the C’s are back to .500 at 11-11 and are two games back of first place. They’ll look to make it four consecutive victories tomorrow night as part of an RBC We Care Wednesday at 7:05 p.m.
