Canadians starter Juaron Watts-Brown was tagged for two solo home runs in the top of the first by the Everett Aquasox but settled down after throwing six innings of six-hit ball with a walk and seven strikeouts.

It was Vancouver’s relievers who let them down though Bo Bonds allowed a three run homer to Gabriel Moncada to make it 6-5 for Everett in the eight. Chay Yeager had allowed a run in the seventh to make it 5-3.

Jackson Hornung had given the Canadians a 5-2 lead on a bases-loaded double in the fifth that scored Jacob Sharp, Alex Stone, and Bryce Arnold.

The Canadians did make it 7-6 with their last at-bat in the bottom of the ninth but the Frogs managed to hang on to win this one and tie this series at one game a piece.

Tonight’s game goes at 7:05pm at Rogers Field at Nat Bailey Stadium. Connor O’Halloran (2-6, 7.69 ERA) is on the mound for the C’s.

Dunedin Blue Jays

Arjun Nimmala’s three run shot in the top of the fifth made it 5-2 Dunedin but the Threshers would claw back to make it 5-4 in the bottom of the sixth.

In the seventh inning, the Blue Jays took an 8-5 lead when Nick Mitchell’s single scored Braden Barry. This was part of the three run seventh where Edward Duran also singled and scored Arjun Nimmala.
