2021 IPA Pro Cup Final Series
(best-of-seven games)
Patterson Blanks Rascals, Sligo Wins Opener 2-0
Sligo got an outstanding mound performance from its ace Les Patterson in the opening game of the 2021 IPA Pro Cup at Silver Mountain Park... Patterson (3-2 2.35) shut out White River 2-0 on a 4-hitter... Patterson walked none and fanned 6 in a flawless outing... unsung number 8 hitter, 2B Akihiro Kato (.208), was the hero with a 2-run homer in the second inning... it was his second of the postseason and Kato now has 10 RBIs, third best on the club... losing pitcher 42-year-old Joe Hudson (2-3 3.60) tossed a terrific game, too, limiting the Rovers to just 5 hits with 4 Ks and 2 bases on balls... his only mistake was the gopher ball to Kato.
