Vancouver Canadians look to Bounce Back after Consecutive Losses

Posted on by

The Vancouver Canadians have now lost two in a row against the Everett AquaSox at the Nat Bailey Stadium. The struggles seem to continue for the team, with only one win in their last seven games, and not even the force from May the Fourth could’ve helped the Canadians on Wednesday. A lot of force, and magical powers were going to be needed for the club after they dug themselves a hole too big to get out of by giving up four runs in the first inning, followed by a three-run home run that put Everett up 7-0 in the third inning.

 

But Vancouver was able to rally back and put a couple of runs on the board in the fifth inning to make things interesting for Everett, but it was too late. The Canadians lost 8-4 in the second game of a best of six against the AquaSox.

For the first-time all-season, Vancouver’s record has dipped below .500, as they sit with a 10-11 record, and after being tied for second place in the Northwest League going into Tuesday, they have now fallen three spots and sit second last. The only team beneath them is Everett, with a 9-13 record.

If there was a chance for the Canadians to push for first place, it was against Everett, but the AquaSoxs seem to be giving them a run for their money.

Their next game was supposed to be on Thursday, May 5th, but due to typical Vancouver weather, the game has been postponed due to rain and a make-up game will be played on Saturday, May 7th. That means back-to-back, seven-inning games for the team to start the weekend off, first pitch for game one is set for 1:05 pm.

It’s also unfortunate for the squad because they won’t be able to rock their classic 1996-inspired uniforms this Throwback Thursday. Hopefully, the weather next Thursday will hold up, and they’ll be able to show off those gorgeous uniforms.

The Canadians will look to get their first win of the series on Friday, May 6th, for the ‘Nooner at the Nat.
