The Brisbane Bandits enter the final homestand of the regular season with no margin for error.

The Brisbane Bandits return to the road for a pivotal Round 8 matchup, opening a four-game series against the Perth Heat beginning Thursday night at NSR Hire Ballpark in Perth. With only three rounds remaining in the Australian Baseball League regular season, both clubs enter the series needing wins as the race for postseason positioning tightens.

Seung-Min Ryu delivered the decisive blow with a walk-off single in the bottom of the 10th inning as the Brisbane Bandits edged the Sydney Blue Sox 6-5 on Sunday morning at Viticon Stadium.

Michael Campbell’s go-ahead homer in the eighth inning of the opener ignited the Sydney Blue Sox, who carried that momentum into a strong offensive showing in the nightcap to sweep a doubleheader from the Brisbane Bandits on Saturday at Viticon Stadium.

The Brisbane Bandits (11-13) scored six unanswered runs after a four-run first inning by the Sydney Blue Sox (16-8) and rallied to a 6-4 win Thursday night at Viticon Stadium.
