2050 IPA PRO CUP SERIES - Game 2

VALMARA ROLLS ON, 10TH STRAIGHT WIN
The unbeaten Valmara Vipers continued to roll in the playoffs this season, racking up their 10th straight victory, but it didn't come easy... they nipped the White River Rascals 3-2 in 10 innings with the winning run coming in via a wild pitch by losing pitcher Todd Cole, who came on in the 10th... Valmara, the defending Pro Cup trophy holder, now has grabbed the first two games in the best-of-seven series.

The victory went to Mirko Musial (1-0/0.00/2 saves), who worked one and two-thirds innings in relief of starter Primo Sirak... the save went to Kasio Bajek (1-0/0.00/2 saves), though he put the lead in jeopardy in his only inning, the 10th... but he got out of it unscathed after walking two batters... Sirak (2-0/1.25) worked into the seventh before being relieved, stopping the Rascals on two runs and four hits, striking out six and walking five batters... White River starter Nicky Palmer (2-1/2.53) was quite effective, yielding only one earned run and eight hits in his nine innings... Cole (1-3/4.82) was tagged with the loss... Mirko Musial (.500) walked with one out in the 10th... moved up to second on a walk to CF Don Ritchie (.400)... they both advanced on a groundout to third base... Musial scored the game-winner when Cole uncorked a wild pitch.

Sirak and Palmer battled scorelessly until the Vipers scored two in the top of the fifth... SS Ken Jensen (.295) got the first run in with an RBI single... the second one scored on LF Tomek Abramczyk's (.368) sac fly... Rascal 1B Ruben Reaves (.259) chopped it to 2-1 in the last of the sixth with an RBI single... and RF Ryne Hyland (.213) deadlocked it in the seventh with a solo homer.

Abramczyk and RF Boyd Holmes (.313) got two hits each to top Valmara, while 3B Kenny Yarbrough (.300) slapped two for White River.
