Kamdyn Perry allowed just two hits over six scoreless innings and the Brisbane Bandits backed him with three home runs in an 11-0 shutout of the Perth Heat and his first ABL career win on Friday night at NSR Hire Ballpark.

Strong pitching carried Brisbane to a tight win in the opener before Perth answered with a relentless offensive outburst in Game 2, forcing a doubleheader split Saturday at Viticon Stadium.

The Brisbane Bandits return home looking to stabilize after a 3-4 record in their first seven games, marked by less-than-ideal run production and a pitching staff still finding its rhythm. Standing in their way is the Perth Heat, who are 2-4, that has shown flashes of offensive punch and bring several players into the series on impressive streaks. Both clubs are trying to gain early-season footing as they attempt to climb atop the ABL standings.
