Geelong Topples Canberra, 7-4
The Canberra Raiders and Geelong Cats riveted fans at Kardinia Park.

The Geelong Cats beat the Canberra Raiders, 7-4, at Kardinia Park. The win was due in part to right fielder Bradley Patu, who went 2-4 with a home run and a double, while adding 5 RBI and scoring once. Brenden Hancox, the winning pitcher, is now 1-0. He went 6 innings, allowing 3 runs on 7 hits, while fanning 4 and walking 1. Trevor Breayley nailed down his 1st save.

With Geelong leading 2-0 in the bottom of the second, Patu hit a fastball from Rylan Eyres-Brown for a 3-run home run. It was his 1st home run of the season and put the Cats ahead, 5-0.

"I'm proud of the way our guys played today to come out with this win," Patu told the Geelong Daily News.

Geelong goes to 4-0.
