Win Extends HarbourCats Lead to 3-1 Over River Cats
Victoria HarbourCats manager Joel Rose knew it was a gamble to give the start to a rookie. It was a good gamble to take.

Pitching in front of a hostile crowd, 24-year-old left-hander Bentley Tharrington silenced the host Sacramento River Cats at River Cats Ballpark. The HarbourCats shut out the River Cats by a final score of 6-0, to give the HarbourCats a 3-1 advantage in the best-of-7 Wild Card Series.

Tied up with the River Cats in the top of the fifth inning, the HarbourCats got a boost from catcher Dave Wilkens. With runners on 2nd and 3rd, Wilkens saw a 0-1 sinker from Roman Swanson and hit a 2-run single to break the stalemate and put Victoria on top, 2-0.

"It was a tough night at the plate," said Sacramento manager Brandon Holmes.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at River Cats Ballpark in Sacramento.
