2020 IPA Elite 8 Series
(best-of-seven)

Ruthlandian Union

Bobcats Beat Snappers In Opener 3-0 On Ray's 4-Hitter
Playing at home in City Park Stadium, the Beechwood Bobcats beat Rocky Rapids 3-0 in game one of the Ruthlandian Elite 8 Series... 27-year-old right-hander Billy Ray (1-0) hurled a fine 4-hitter and outpitched the Snappers Don Chaney... SS Ace Parker, RF Freddie Baxter and CF Vic Valenti led the way with 2 hits each... Baxter doubled in runs in the third and fifth innings, while Valenti singled a run in the fifth... Chaney (0-1) went the distance in defeat, allowing 3 runs on 8 hits.

Ancona Nips CL On Hoover's Homer
At drizzly Jay Loman Park in Ancona, the Red Elephants nipped Crystal Lake 4-3 on Dave Hoover's 2-run shot in the fifth inning... that gave Clete Dukas (1-0) the victory over Duncan Welch in a battle of 20-game winners... Dukas worked 8 innings for the win, permitting 3 runs on 5 hits, while Welch left after 6 innings and gave up 4 runs and 4 hits... closer Lynwood Marshall nailed down his first postseason save with a perfect ninth frame... the Crushers drew first blood with 3 runs in the top of the fourth, but Ancona came back with two in the bottom of the inning and wrapped up the game in the decisive fifth on Hoover's homer... each club got only 5 hits apiece.

Tycobbian Union

Torres Tames Suns, Z's Zap 'em 6-0 In Game 1
On an almost perfect day at Capet Stadium in Arroyo Grande, Luxora Zorro southpaw Tiago Torres tamed the tough hometown Suns 6-0 on 5 hits to take game 1 of the Tycobbian Elite 8 Series... Torres, who was 25-10 during the regular season for Luxora, had perfect control and walked none, while striking out 4... Earl O'Reilly (0-1) worked 8 innings in defeat, yielding 6 runs and 9 hits... SS Joaquin Malagon paced the winners with 2 runs batted in and LF Carmine Mancuso, 2B Jake Chatelain and 1B Jim Gurney each drilled 2 base hits.

Ozarka Overwhelms Arlon 13-3 In Opener
The Ozarka bats were booming today at Ellie Ewing Stadium as the Naturals bombed Arlon 13-3 in the first game of the Tycobbian Elite 8... Ozarka pounded out 14 hits, sparked by 3 RBIs apiece by SS James Couch, LF Jose Ordonez and C Frank Kiffin... they all had homers and a pair of hits, solidly backing up Eddie Roberts on the mound... the Nats got off to a great start with 4 runs in each of the first two frames... Roberts cruised to the win by scattering 10 hits with 6 strikeouts and 2 walks... Armando Cruz (0-1) took the loss, allowing 7 runs in less than 2 innings.
