Rare loss for Jr. Blaze

With first place already wrapped up, the 91Ô­´´ Jr. Blaze lost for just the second time in the past 15 games — and only the seventh defeat all season — 3-1 on Wednesday night to the Fraser Valley Jr. Chiefs.

The Blaze lost despite out-hitting the Chiefs 8-4.

91Ô­´´'s lone run was scored in the fifth inning by Tanner Shaer on a Mitchell Robinson single, one of his three hits in the game.

Matt Strother was tagged with the loss, allowing three runs on four hits in four and two-thirds innings.

91Ô­´´ (39-7) closes the regular season on Sunday (July 24) with a doubleheader in Nanaimo against the second-place Jr. Pirates (31-11).
