Tycobbian Union West Division First Round Playoffs

Vikings Score Late, Top Bucs in 10 Innings 3-2
The Bayview Vikings almost waited to long to get into the ballgame... they had to score two runs in the ninth to tie the game and then nosed out the Bay St. Clair Buccaneers 3-2 in the tenth inning... The triumph knotted the TU West Division playoff series at one game each... Starters Adrian Strom and Duncan McFalls both pitched shutout ball until the sixth inning when the Bucs got an unearned run... 2B Alan Hansen dropped CF Wayne Latham's popup for an error, 2B Tony Mann was hit by a pitch and 3B Ed Albrecht drove in the first run of the game with a single... In the seventh frame RF Charlie Moon singled, moved up to second on a sacrifice, stole third and then scored on Latham's base hit to make it 2-0 for Bay St. Clair... But McFalls couldn't hold the lead... SS Shorty Richards and RF Phil Kanaan got to him for RBI singles in the ninth to send the game into extra innings... The game was decided in the tenth when 1B Chancey Quibedeaux and C Scott Sykora singled to put runners on the corners...LF Bryan Wessels then got the game-winning single... The Vikings had 14 hits in the game, while the Buccaneers got only 7... Buzzy Lewis (1-0) came on in the ninth and got the victory with two scoreless frames... the loss went to Kenny Metcalf (0-1), who relieved McFalls in the tenth... Bayview got a fine start from Strom... He worked seven strong innings, giving up only two runs on five hits with 5 Ks... Likewise Bay St. Clair got an excellent performance from McFalls, who permitted only two runs in his nine innings... The third and final game of the series will be tomorrow afternoon at Shoreline Park in Bay St. Clair.

Kenwood Nudges By RH Reds 2-1, Ties Series
The Kenwood Wildcats hung in the Tycobbian Union West playoffs on the strength of Nick Deville's strong left arm... Deville struck out 10 Rolling Hill Reds en route to a narrow 2-1 victory to even up the series at 1-1... Deville (1-0) scattered eight hits and walked two in an impressive performance, outpitching Roger Davidson (0-1), who held Kenwood to just five hits, while fanning six and walking three batters... The Wildcats took the lead 1-0 in the opening inning on CF Teddy Mays' double and SS Ned Chamberlain's RBI single... In the top of the third Rolling Hills evened the score at 1-1 when LF Freddie Ridgeway hit a two-bagger and scored on RF Big Boy Charisa's single... The final run of the game came in the bottom of the fourth... Kenwood LF Grover Chilcott started the inning with a double, moved to third on a ground out and scored when 1B Louie Lassalle grounded out to second base... After that Deville and Davidson put nothing but goose eggs on the scoreboard... The series will be decided tomorrow afternoon at the Olde Towne Grounds in Kenwood... The winner will advance into the Sweet 16 round of the IPA Pro Cup playoffs.
