The 15U AAA Canucks won 5-3 over the Regina Pacers Friday evening in their first baseball Regina playoff game.

Brendan Gerbrandt struck out seven in five and a third innings on the mound, while Nathan McDougall drove home two runs in the win.

The Canucks benefitted from a three-run second inning, as they had eight hits along the way.  

The Canucks are in Balcarras Saturday afternoon to face the first-place East Central Mils in the league semifinal. The Mils have had their number through the season, only allowing three Cancuks runs in three regular season games.
