Victoria scored two runs in the fifth inning to break a scoreless tie in the opener on Sunday as Parker Logan was tagged with the loss in the 2-1 defeat.
Langley’s lone run came in the sixth when Bydeweg scored on a throwing error after the team pulled off the double steal.
The second game saw the Blaze offence come to life in the 14-1 rout with the team scoring four runs in the first, five in the second and another five in the fourth.
