PORT ANGELES Wash. — It was a much-needed win in a ballpark not so far from home.
The Victoria HarbourCats put up a bunch of runs early and rode strong pitching to the end in a 7-1 victory Tuesday over the host Port Angeles Lefties in WCL action Monday night.
The HarbourCats had 16 hits and scored three times in the third, then piled on in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings, while the pitching staff kept the Lefties to six hits.
Kerim Orucevic was 4-5 with three runs driven in, while Gunner Antillon was 2-3 with a walk, run and RBI. Michelle Artzberger, Cam Schneider and Ny’Zaiah Thompson also had two hits apiece. Schneider added two stolen bases.
Trey Langan had four strong innings in making the start, giving up five hits, one earned run, one walk and striking out two.
Flynn Ridley followed him with four innings of untouchable pitching, one hit and three walks given up with three strikeouts and no runs. Isaac Hines of Ave Maria University made his Victoria debut with a scoreless ninth.
