HARTSDALE ADVANCES TO TU TITLE SERIES WITH 2 WINS AT HOME

With the series tied at 2 games apiece, Hartsdale took charge with two one-run squeakers. The Hellcats trailed 4-0 at the end of 4 frames in game five. Homers by Calvin Mannon and Jorah Hladki tied it up by the 7th. Benny Crystal was walked in the 8th with the bases loaded for the winning score. Hartsdale trimmed Turon 5-4. Same scenario in game six. Again the Typhoons had a 2-1 lead after 7 innings, but the Hellcats came back with single runs in the 8th and 9th for a 3-2 victory to cop the series four games to two. Turon gifted them with the tying run when Eli Kulacz scored in the 8th on an error. Leading off the bottom of the 9th Max Carline sent one soaring out of the park and sending Hartsdale to the Tycobbian Union Title Series against the Rolling Hills Racers.
