HELLCATS WIN THIRD STRAIGHT ON BURGESS HR IN 14TH
For 14 innings it was nip-and-tuck and back-and-forth before the Hartsdale Hellcats finally won a homer-fest with Red Bluff 7-6... in the top half of the 14th the Hellcats scored twice on a triple by Darrell Nesbitt and a sac fly by Marv Shaw, followed by Emilian Burgess' solo homer...Burgess' blast proved to the be the difference as the Red Sox rallied with its fourth homer of the game in the bottom half of the inning, a one-run shot by Jesse Shaw... the Hellcats also pounded four out of the park in a 14-hit flurry... all three wins by the Hellcats have been by one run.

In addition to Burgess' (.342) game-winner, Greg Melton (.333), Robinson Alomar (.343) and Myrt Breland (.406) also went deep for Hartsdale... it was Alomar's third of the playoff, Burgess' second and the first for Melton and Breland... heading up the HR brigade for the Red Sox was David Kelso (.356) with a pair of blasts... Kelso now has hit five in the postseason and has driven in 17 runs... Bailey Norcross of Middlefield holds the all-time playoff HR mark with 8 in 2005... while Barney Lewis of Southport drove in 23 runs in the 2044 postseason... Leemon O'Donovan (.300) chipped in his fourth playoff homer, while it was the first for Shaw (.354).

Breland and Melton sparked the Hellcats with three hits each and Shaw, Alomar and Burgess got two apiece... Kelso was tops for the Red Sox with two hits, four RBIs and two runs scored... Shaw had a pair of hits, scored a pair and homered.

Jimmy Howard (2-0/1.64) claimed the win with four solid innings of relief... he worked the 11th through 14th, gave up only two hits and one run... the loss went to Carson Jamara (1-1/2.00), who went four and two-thirds innings, allowed just two hits and one run, while fanning five and walking three.
