2034 Pro Cup Final Series - Game 2
(best-of-seven)

Takota's Triple Ties Pro Cup, Crushers Win 4-3
Big Sam Takota came up big with a game-winning triple in the eighth inning to send favored Crystal Lake to a 4-3 triumph over the North Hills Hawks at the Hawk's Nest gaining a split in the first two games of the IPA Pro Cup Finals... the Crushers got a good start from Dennis Mills (2-0/2.25), who worked 8 innings, permitted 5 hits and 3 runs with 5 Ks and no walks...Mills blanked the Hawks 3-0 through 6 innings, but was slammed for 3 runs in the bottom of the seventh... reliever Eddie Lane came on in the ninth and held North Hills scoreless for his second save of the playoff.

23-game winner Jeff Owens (1-3/3.19) couldn't put the Hawks in a commanding 2-0 position with a win... he went the distance, gave up 4 runs on 6 hits and took the loss.

Both clubs garnered 6 hits apiece... Takota (.273) sparked the Crushers with 3 hits and 2 RBIs... C Stan Stanek (.350) batted in the other 2 runs... 1B Skipper Shearer (.237) drove in all the Hawks runs with a bases-loaded double in the seventh to tie the score.
