COLFAX, NORTH HILLS FAVORED IN RU AND TU TITLE SERIES
In the IPA Final 4 it will be the Colfax Blasters tangling with the Far Mountain Redhawks in the Ruthlandian championship series and the North Hills Hawks opposed by the La Claire Lynx in the Tycobbian title clash... both series will be best-of-seven and are slated to begin tomorrow afternoon with the winners matching up for the Islands' Pro Cup crown... by virtue of better regular-season records, Far Mountain and North Hills have the home-field advantage.
Colfax got the favorite's role in the Ruthlandian Union, while North Hills got the nod in the Tycobbian Union... the Blasters feature a solid-hitting club with good pitching... the experts give them the edge over pitching-rich, but weak-hitting Redhawks... the Hawks have a strong team with very good bats and standout pitching... the Lynx are a little above average in both respects... but don't count out Far Mountain and La Claire as they have already beaten highly-touted teams in first-round action... the Redhawks knocked off tough Claxton and La Claire surprised powerhouse Tuckanarra.
