3 TEAMS HANGIN' ON, SKIPS IN TROUBLE
Three teams are rolling in the clover and three are just barely hangin' on to the edge of the proverbial cliff in the perilous Islandian Pro Alliance Pro Cup playoffs... Sligo, Valmara and High Mesa have huge 3-1 leads in their series, while Pro Cup favorite Marston, last year's Pro Cup winner Crystal Lake and Denton City are very much in peril of elimination... to stay in the postseason playoffs the latter trio will have to do the almost impossible... they will have to win four consecutive games to advance to the League Championship round... this has rarely happened in IPA circles... only four times has this transpired.

In 2001, Ginza did it in the first round of play... in 2009 Pro Cup champion Turon amazingly triumphed in the Pro Cup Finals... in 2015 Bay St. Clair turned it around in the opening round... and most recently in the 2035 Tycobbian Elite 8 Series, Tuckanarra rallied from a 3-0 deficit to move to the next round.

In Sunday's action, Marston mopped up on Sligo 6-2... Valmara lambasted Crystal Lake 12-7... and Denton City got new life with a 3-2 win in 10 innings over High Mesa... in the other series Oxford has its hands full with the Ginza Ninjas... they have split four games this far... the Ninjas nudged out the Red Caps 4-3 to tie it up at two games apiece.
