2028 IPA Pro Cup Finals

Tucks Trim Westerners 4-3, Series Tied 2-2
For the second day in a row, Tuckanarra has beaten Waleska on the road at Westerner Field... the Blue Jays got a sharp performance out of their ace Quinn Starr, who whipped the Westerners 4-3 in game four of the best-of-seven series... Starr (4-3/3.92) tied the Pro Cup Finals at two games each... in his 8 innings Starr allowed only 2 earned runs on 8 hits in his best postseason outing this year... closer Rob Howe sat the Westerners down in order in the ninth for the save... in a shaky start Waleska's ace Wild Bill Butler (3-4/4.18) went the distance, yielding 4 runs on 7 hits with 6 strikeouts, but walked 7.

Tuckanarra took a 4-1 lead with a pair of runs in the second and third frames... RF Dunstan Lane (.297) and LF Bill Moody (.327) got the first 2 runs across on RBI singles and SS Jed Turchin (.403) drilled a 2-run homer for the other scores... the Westerners came back with a run in the last of the third when 2B Dusty Hickerson (.250) had a leadoff double, advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt and scored on CF Dusty Rogan's (.289) groundout... Waleska got its last 2 runs in the sixth on 1B Glenn Childress' (.186) RBI single and an error by CF Terry Jasper... that was as close as they could get.

Waleska had the edge in hits 8-7... 3B Yahto Sisika (.286) and LF Loco Dillinger (.409) topped the Westerners with 2 hits apiece, while LF Bill Moody (.327) went 2-for-4 for the Blue Jays.
