Vancouver Canadians win third-straight Northwest League Championship

Back-to-back-to-back champions. The Vancouver Canadians are the 2013 Northwest League Champions!

Scotiabank Field at Nat Bailey Stadium played host to the third and final game of the Northwest League Championship game between the Vancouver Canadians and Boise Hawks in a winner-take-all game.

After getting shutout 5-0 in Game 1 on Friday night in Boise, the C’s came home to try to extend the series. They won Game 2 on Sunday afternoon by a score of 4-2 and took the field to a sold out crowd of 5,000-plus on Monday evening.

The combination of good defence, offence and pitching by Ladner, B.C. native Tom Robson (6.1 shutout innings) with five Boise errors saw the Canadians cruise to a 5-0 shutout win, earning the club its third-straight NWL Championship.
