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.

Perth’s (4–6) bats stayed hot and an explosive 11-run ninth inning helped the Heat pull away from the Brisbane Bandits (5–6) for an 18–3 win on Sunday afternoon in the first game of a doubleheader 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.
