Victoria was bowled out for 123 by South Australia in the one-day cup match at Adelaide Oval.
The fourth-placed Bushrangers, needing a victory to remain any chance of making the tournament's final, won the toss but lasted only 37.2 overs.
The Victorians never recovered from losing two wickets in Gary Putland's opening over, the left-arm quick dismissing Rob Quiney and Cameron White for ducks.
After slumping to 5 for 35 in the 16th over, Ryan Carters (44) and Will Sheridan (31) put on 75 runs in 96 balls.
But the end of their partnership heralded the loss of Victoria's last five wickets for just 13 runs.
Fast bowlers Jake Haberfield (4 for 30), Putland (2 for 18) and Joe Mennie (2 for 29) all achieved multiple success for the Redbacks, who will go top of the table with a victory.
