A couple days after losing for only the fourth time this season, the Canucks once again broke out the big bats on their way to a 13-10 win over the Regina Pacers in Regina.
But it definitely wasn’t easy.
The Pacers didn’t seem to want to go away regardless of what the Canucks threw at them, and that made for a high-scoring battle with some rather crazy results.
Take the third inning, for example.
Leading 2-1, the Canucks sent 11 batters to the plate and scored eight runs, only to see Regina do the same, taking on eight runs of their own to keep the contest a one-run game.
Moose Jaw extended their lead to three with a pair of runs in the fourth, though, and the Pacers would get no closer.
Bowes was 3-for-3 with three RBI for the Canucks, while Kaison Skeoch also went 3-for-3, scoring three runs. Ernest had three hits of his own and scored twice, Kohl Olson was 2-for-2 with two RBI.
Legare started and allowed four runs on four hits, with Skeoch and Hunter Scott closing things out.
The Canucks are back in action Wednesday when they travel to Regina to face the Buffalos.
