That game ended up going 8 innings with Kitchener prevailing 4 – 3. WP – Don Scott (8) in relief of Paul Koert (4) who relieved starter Todd Martin who was ejected from the contest. LP – Trevor Ethier (8) in relief of starter Dean Holoien. Due to the length of the previous game the Vancouver and Kitchener game will commence at approx. 10:45 am PDT.
