IPA LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES: Game 3

Ruthlandian Union

WALESKA WALLOPS SUGAR VALLEY 12-6 IN GAME 3
In game three of the Ruthlandian League Championship Series underdog Waleska walloped Sugar Valley 12-6 with a 17-hit barrage at Westerner Field to go up two games to one... Pete Doyle and Jimmy Butler were the prime bats with three runs batted in each... the Rattlers snapped a 2-2 tie with four runs in the top of the sixth, but the Westerners retaliated with 10 runs in the bottom half of the inning to win going away.

Waleska 1B Rob Rice (.407) went 3 for 4... C Jimmy Butler (.256) was 3 for 5... and three players CF Kevin Hardy (.367), LF Pete Doyle (.278) and 3B Hasashi Yamaguchi (.283) all chipped in with a pair of hits... PH Brent Bryant (.273) had the only roundtripper in the contest, a two-run shot... Sugar Valley collected 10 hits with LF Allan Hood (.214), CF Carl Ramsey (.432) and C Cal Weeks (.500) getting two hits apiece.

Westerner starter Niles Nielsen (2-1/5.09) notched the win but was treated roughly by the Rattlers for six runs and nine hits in six innings... in a very effective relief appearance Kenny Foster (0-0/0.00/2 saves) put up his second save of the playoff with three runless innings, holding the Rattlers to one hit, walking no one and whiffing four batters... loser Antonio Cedeno (1-2/5.76) was belted for 10 runs and 15 hits by the Westerners in just five-plus frames.

Tycobbian Union

CHAMPS NEAR SWEEP, CLOBBER RASCALS 10-1
Longshot Arlon annihilated highly-favored White River 10-1 in the third game of the Tycobbian LCS as J. C. Hilburn and Ivan Cisneros paved the way to victory... one more win in the best-of-seven series for the Champions and they will be on their way to the Pro Cup Finals... Hilburn (1-2/3.42) supplied some top-notch pitching, going into the ninth and holding the Rascals to one run on six hits in eight and two-thirds innings... he fanned five and walked only two... it was Arlon's third consecutive triumph.

1B Ivan Cisneros (.341) boomed a grand slam homer in the second inning to put Arlon ahead 5-0 and they cinched it with five more in the fifth... Cisneros had two hits and batted in five runs... CF Ferdie Freese (.244) also homered and drove in a pair of runs... both Cisneros and Freese have hit three homers in the playoffs... RF Cary Rockwell (.450) also had two hits and a pair of RBIs... taking the loss in a terrible outing was White River starter Keil Trickett (1-1/6.92).. Arlon slammed him for 10 runs in four innings.
