2299 - CBO Playoffs - Sole Survivor Series: Diamond City vs Fort Hagen

Sole Survivor Series - Game 3

Story and Box Score


Diamond City Breaks Through for First Win in SSS

The Diamond City Swatters have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Fort Hagen Silver Shroud, winning 4-1 at Hubris Comics Park today. Swatters right-hander Tyler Powers threw 7 innings of 3-hit ball. The win cuts the deficit facing the Swatters to 2-1 in the best-of-7 Sole Survivor Series.

Powers was effective for Diamond City, seldom allowing the Silver Shroud to square up a pitch. The right-hander tossed 92 pitches over 7.1 innings. He limited Fort Hagen to just 1 run on 3 hits.

"We cashed in when we had the chance," said Diamond City manager Bucky Bachelor.

Fort Hagen held a 1-0 lead heading into the top of the 5th thanks to Jim Tiller's 1st-inning solo blast. In the 5th, Mike Cartrette (1-1) ran into trouble which cost the Shroud the game. Danny Suarez walked to start the inning and then advanced on a ground out. With two outs, Cartrette plunked Witcher Craft, and then Mike Grognak hit a two-RBI double for a 2-1 Diamond City lead. Oren Gep then tripled but came up lame, leading to Crater Landlubber coming in to pinch run. Wally Warwick then doubled to score Landlubber for the 4-1 lead, the same as the final.

The Swatters also lost Allen Bishop to a base-running injury, leaving both in doubt pending the effectiveness of stimpack treatment. Five of the Swatters' seven hits were for extra bases. Josh Samm pitched the final 1.2 innings to pick up his 4th save of the postseason.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Hubris Comics Park. Slated to start are X10-44 Mannson for the Diamond City Swatters and Brent Hooker for the the Fort Hagen Silver Shroud.
