Williamstown Wolves bats put on a show to help keep the side alive in the Baseball Victoria Summer league premier 1st nine competition.
Facing Blackburn on Saturday in a semi final, it was a dominant performance from the Wolves, who came away with a 20-5 win.
Wolves president Chris Jackson said he hadn’t seen a scoreline like that before in finals.
“It was a good game,” he said. “It was a bit of a blow out with our bats coming to life.
“Scoring 20 runs is good, but the main thing was getting the win on the board and staying alive for another match.”
The win moves the Wolves into the final four of the competition.
They will need to win another four matches if they are to claim the premiership.
“We have to keep winning from here on out,” he said. “We play another game on Tuesday night, it’s a short time between games but we will be right.”
Tuesday night’s game against Upwey Ftg, which was after deadline, was one that the Wolves were looking forward to.
The two teams played in the first week of finals with Upwey winning that one 10-0.
The new finals structure meant the Wolves stayed in the competition, with a side having to lose twice to be knocked out of the competition.
“They touched us up the first time round,” Jackson said. “We’re looking forward to the challenge and hopefully challenge a lot more than the first time round.
“It’s a great opportunity for us. We were disappointed with that last performance and we’re really looking forward to making amends.
“We’re really excited to get out there.”
A win on Tuesday night means they would face Waverley on Thursday night, with Sunshine Eagles waiting for the winner of that match.
