2048 IPA PRO CUP FINAL SERIES - Game 4
CHRISTIANSON BLANKS DIAMONDS 2-0, REDS UP 3-1
It was a lot different this time around... the pitchers lived up to their reputations... Matthew Christianson edged Abe Schiffman in game four of the IPA Pro Cup Finals 2-0 on a five-hitter to give the Rolling Hills Reds a three games to one lead in the series over the Claxton Diamonds...... this was quite a change from the 12-8 slugfest in their previous encounter between the two aces in game one... In a stellar outing Christianson (3-1/2.42) struck out three and walked only one batter... in his eight frames Schiffman (2-2/3.54) only allowed two solo homers among the six hits, while fanning 10 and walking just one.
Rolling Hills RF Vic Scott (.388) crushed his fourth postseason homer in the top of the third inning and 2B Miguel Romeros (.194) ripped another one in the eighth... that was all the scoring... Romeros and 1B Darwin Tard (.291) got two hits each in the win... rookie LF Whit Miley (.429) and 1B Jojo DeLucca (.355) had two hits apiece for the Diamonds.
