2019 IPA Elite 8 Series (best-of-seven)
Snappers Sweep Eastshore
Rocky Rapids proved to be too much for Eastshore... the Snappers whipped them in the Ruthlandian Elite 8 for the second straight year... this time they swept the Elegants in four games... 23-game winner Joe Anderson (1.00 2.00) nailed down the series with a 4-1 triumph... Anderson went the route, holding Eastshore to 6 hits and a run with no walks and 5 Ks... taking the loss was Danny Siegfried (0-1 3.50), who allowed 4 runs and 10 hits in 8 innings... Rocky Rapids went to work early and built up a 4-0 lead after 3 frames... 3B Bill Riley (.400) had 3 hits and an RBI for the winners, while 2B Paul Shelton (.235) batted in 2 runs and SS Joel Williams (.133) drove in the other run... the Snappers will have to wait to see who will win the other RU Elite 8 series between Taranto and Claxton... the Tars have a 3-0 lead and could end it today.
