2014 IPA Pro Cup Series - Game 2

Wildcats Down Sunbirds 8-6, Series Even
In game two of the IPA Pro Cup Series both teams had their aces on the mound, but it didn't matter much to the hitters... Kenwood outscored Belair Beach 8-6 to even the series at one game apiece in the best-of-seven set... It was a seesaw affair... the Sunbirds went in front 2-0 in the first on LF Ron Dizon's third playoff homer... the Wildcats countered with single runs in the second and third innings and added two more in each of the fifth and seventh, building up a 6-2 lead... but that didn't hold as Belair Beach tied it up in the last half of the inning on Dizon's fourth playoff home run, a bases-loaded blast... 2B Duncan Renwick got the game-winning hit in the top of the eighth, a two-run single.

Tank Tucker (3-0 4.15) got the win as he came on in the seventh and got the final out of the inning... Rick Brickell finished up with 2 perfect innings and got his 4th save... The loss went to Groot Tenbrook (2-2 4.50), who came on in the eighth and allowed 2 runs... Kenwood's top pitcher Connie Gavagan started, but was ineffective... Gavagan was tagged for 6 runs and 8 hits and departed in the seventh... Belair Beach's best hurler Denny Whitaker had a rough outing, too... Whitaker permitted 6 runs and 6 hits and exited in the seventh.

3B Brad Walker (.321) led the Wildcats at the plate with 3-3 and 2 runs scored... Walker belted 2 doubles and a triple... RF Dennis Riley (.302) had a 2-run homer and C Gene Verbick (.260) drove in 2 runs for the winners... Dizon sparked the Sunbirds with his 2 roundtrippers and 6 RBIs... Both clubs had 8 hits each.
