Facing nine different pitchers — who each worked an inning — kept the 91Ô­´´ Senior Blaze out of their rhythm and the result was a 5-0 loss to the Victoria Harbourcats on Saturday in the provincial capital.

But the Blaze had their revenge, doubling the ’Cats 10-5 in the rematch on Sunday in Duncan.

Victoria scored three unearned runs of 91Ô­´´ pitcher Jesse Peters in the second inning and that was more than enough offence in the shutout win.

The 91Ô­´´ bats came alive on Sunday with both Scott Webster and Joe Germaine hitting solo home runs in the 10-5 victory.

Jacob Yousif also came up with a pair of RBIs.

Louis Boyd, Peters, Clayton Howell, Tristan Graham and Riley MacDonald each drove in one run.

Shane Kraemer was the winning pitcher, working two scoreless innings.

As a team, 91Ô­´´ pitchers struck out seven Victoria batters.

The Blaze are in Grand Forks this weekend for the Grand Forks Invitational.

The tournament runs June 26 to June 30.
