ROVERS HANG IN RU WEST RACE
The Sligo Rovers (81-69) are really a longshot for the RU West title, but they are still hanging in the hunt, beating the Colfax Blasters 5-3... the Rovers trail first place Fort Benton (85-65) by four games with only four games to play... all it takes is a win by the Defenders or a defeat for the Rovers and they will be eliminated from the race.
Sligo got a quality performance from Ayden Evans (8-9/2.93) yesterday... he went the route and held the Blasters (67-83) to five hits... the Rovers snapped a 3-3 deadlock in the seventh and tacked on another run in the eighth... three errors took their toll on losing pitcher Terry Dubrovnik (12-15/3.89)… also going the distance he only allowed two earned runs.
