2041 IPA DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES - Game Two

Ruthlandian Union

COLD CREEK POWERS BY MIDDLEFIELD 8-5 IN 2ND GAME
After a quiet opening game, the bats spoke loudly in game two of the Ruthlandian Division Series at Middlefield Park... visiting Cold Creek smacked three homers en route to an 8-5 triumph over favored Middlefield, who slammed two out of the park... Reynaldo Alvarado, Guy St. Laurent and Joe Cochrane went deep for the Catamounts as they went up 2-0 in the best-of-seven series... Harvey Fullerton (1-0) notched the win despite allowing 10 hits and five runs... only two were earned... James Long (0-1) took the loss, giving up seven runs and eight hits in six innings... only three runs were earned as the Roosters played terrible defense and committed four errors... the Catamounts also made two miscues in the sloppily-played contest.

Cold Creek collected 11 hits and were sparked by RF Reynaldo Alvarado (.300) with three hits, CF Guy St. Laurent (.222) with a two-run homer and 1B John-Michael Krikma (.300) with a two-run single... C Brad Alexander (.375) had a homer and two singles for the Roosters, who had 10 hits... and 3B Matt Womack (.143) had a solo homer and a sac fly.

BULLS TRIM RANCHEROS 5-4, UP 2-0 IN SERIES
Defending IPA champion Ranford did it again... they whipped favored San Dimas 5-4 to go ahead two games to none at Ranchero Stadium... the Bulls fell behind 4-0 after two frames, but rallied with three runs in the fifth and two in the ninth... CF Jamie Holcomb (.000) tied the game in the top of the ninth with a sacrifice fly and RF Tokuji Taro (.250) won it with an RBI single... both clubs cracked 10 hits each... 2B Joe Alderman (.333) led San Dimas with a three-run clout.

Ronnie Schroeder (1-0) was the winning hurler... he went all the way, allowed 10 hits and four runs, while Seth Dawson (0-1) blew the save and suffered the loss in relief of starter Toby White... White pitched eight innings and departed with a 4-4 score... he gave up four runs on eight hits, walked nobody and fanned five.

3B Pete Bankston (.500) had three hits and scored two runs for the winners... and Taro went 2-4 and batted in two runs.

Tycobbian Union

'CANES EVEN SERIES, BLOW BY HAWKS 7-6
Hard-hitting Cape Coral slammed North Hills vaunted pitching staff around for 14 hits in a stirring comeback 7-6 victory in 10 innings... the Hurricanes trailed 6-5 going into the last of the tenth, but got a two-run walk-off single by Rikky Van Dalen to even the series at one game each... Van Dalen (.444) went 4-for-6... the Hawks only got six hits, but two of them were homers by CF Kris Anastas (.222), a three-run jolt, and a solo salvo by LF Adam Thurgood (.375)... reliever Pete Collins (1-0) nabbed the win, while Alex Peters (0-1) caught the loss... neither starter Stacy Boyle, nor Nelson Hooper was effective... Boyle was blistered for six runs in nine and one-third innings and Hooper was clipped for five runs on 10 hits in his eight innings.

KENWOOD KO'S SOUTH FORK 5-2
The Kenwood Wildcats won again at home at the Olde Towne Grounds to take a 2-0 lead in the Tycobbian Division Series... Freddy Gooch (1-0) stymied South Fork 5-2, permitting six hits and two runs in seven and one-third innings with four walks and six strikeouts... the Wildcats supported him with 10 hits... and Rusty Bradford got the last five outs for the save... Mike Lambertini (0-1) went the route in defeat... he whiffed four and walked four... CF Tim Jarvis (.429) broke a 2-2 tie with a single in the bottom of the seventh and Rod Jenkins (.375) followed with a two-run roundtripper to run the lead to 5-2.
