MARSTON AND HARTSDALE COULD SWEEP FAVORED RANFORD AND TURON IN IPA ELITE 8
There are no heavy favorites in the Islandian Pro Alliance Pro Cup playoffs this year... parity is rampant... it's pretty much a crap shoot... roll the dice and see who comes up... however, there are a couple of mild surprises... and a major one, too... in the Ruthlandian Elite 8 Series, Marston, using its fine pitching staff, has silenced the Ranford bats and snatched three straight from slightly favored Bulls... while upstart Hartsdale has beaten Pro Cup favorite Turon three times in a row in the Tycobbian Union... unexpectedly the Hellcats have whipped the Typhoons on the hill and at the plate.
In yesterday's play in the Ruthlandian Union Elite 8, the Marston Nine rode some very fine pitching and squeezed out a 1-0 win over the Ranford Bulls... and the Valka Blackhawks unleashed some lumber and walloped the Sligo Rovers 9-4 in the third game... the Rovers still have a 2-1 edge in the best-of-seven series.
In Tycobbian action Hartsdale stopped the Turon Typhoons 1-0 and Rolling Hills finally won one from the Tuckanarra Tiger Cats 6-4... fhe Tucks have won 2 of the 3 games.
