2014 IPA Pro Cup Series - Game 5

Gavagan Fires 1-Hitter, Kenwood Still Alive
Trailing 3 games to 1 and with their backs to the wall, the Kenwood Wildcats rose to the occasion and staved off elimination in the IPA Pro Cup Series with a 5-2 decision over Belair Beach in game 5 at Olde Towne Grounds in Kenwood... The Wildcats backed up Connie Gavagan's sizzling 1-hitter with 3 home runs... 3B Zippy Parks (.327) got the only Sunbird hit with an RBI single in the ninth... Gavagan (3-0 3.09) weakened in the ninth and walked 4, but closer Rick Brickell saved it for him... It was Brickell's 5th save in the playoff this year... He got the final out of the game with the bases loaded... 3B Brad Walker (.324), LF Jimmy Brewer (.196) and 1B Xavier Rocha (.234) all had solo homers to pace the Wildcats... Denny Whitaker (3-1 3.33) suffered his first postseason lost this season... Whitaker surrendered 5 runs and 11 hits in 7 innings.
