Canberra will go against Auckland in the Australia ABL on November 17 at MIT Narrabundah Ballpark. The Auckland Tuatara defeated the Brisbane Bandits 13-2 on Friday night in the Australian Baseball League, giving them their first victory of the year. The Tuatara turned their fortunes around spectacularly just 24 hours after being blanked 6-0 by the Bandits in the Auckland franchise’s return to the ABL following two years of Covid slumber. The Tuatara took an early lead after Australian first baseman Jack Barrie launched a huge home run in the top of the second inning, and his club kept adding runs at regular intervals.
A grand slam home run by former Major League shortstop Tzu-Wei Lin in the eighth inning and a two-run homer by Kiwi catcher Clayton Campbell Jr. in the top of the nine secured the victory. Wei-Chun Weng, the starting pitcher, wowed through four innings of work while allowing just one run on two hits. Even more amazing was reliever Chien Yu, who completed three innings of relief work while allowing just one hit. Game three of the series will pit the Tuatara against the Bandits on Saturday night, followed by a Sunday conclusion at Brisbane’s Viticon Stadium.
