2015 IPA Pro Cup Final 4 Series

Ruthlandian Union

Tars Nip Nine 4-3, Need One Win
Taranto nipped Marston 4-3 for its third win in four games and only needs one more victory to wrap up the Ruthlandian Final 4 Series... The Tars rallied late to pull out the win... they got the game-winning run in the top of the ninth when PH Miles Rogers (.440) slammed a two-out double and was driven with by PH Rickey Gilliam's (.333) RBI single... Taranto had trouble with Roberto Conception and trailed 2-0 until a 3-run seventh gave them the first lead... the damage was done by C Dennis Radke's (.450) two-run double and CF Bryan Miles' (.143) one-run clout... Marston tied it up in the last of the eighth on LF James Yardley's (.300) solo homer... winner Vito Incardona (2-1 4.44) only allowed 3 runs in 8 innings, struck out 7 and walked 2... and closer Anthony Zinacola did his job with a perfect ninth for his second save in the postseason... Conception (2-1 2.42) went the route in defeat, gave up 4 runs on 6 hits, walked 5 and whiffed 3... one more Tar triumph will send Marston home for the season and give Taranto a shot at its first Pro Cup crown.

Bucs Beat Haymakers 6-4, Lead 3-1 in Series
In game four of the Tycobbian Final 4, Bay St. Clair inched closer to its first Pro Cup Final with a 6-4 win over Mahaska on the road in Heartland Stadium... the Buccaneers now lead the series three games to one and need just one more win in the best-of-seven series for a crack at its first Pro Cup trophy... Bucs LF Bruno DiPirro (.341) snapped a 3-3 score in the top of the seventh with an RBI single and 1B Gerry Fields (.308) made it 6-3 with a two-run double... manager Guy Rondre got a gutsy performance from Lloyd Weber (2-1 3.94), who fanned 6, walked one, permitted 8 hits and 4 runs, yet survived... Weber was 19-12 during the regular season and he outpitched Joey Wallace, who was 23-9... Wallace (0-2 4.60) was battered for 6 runs and 10 hits in 6+ frames... Bay St. Clair had the edge in hits 11-8 with Fields and 2B Bud Walker (.370) getting 3 hits each.
