Comets Shake Off Walkoff Loss, Win Series 4-1


For four games, the Kiev Comets battered and bashed the vaunted Mumbai Vipers pitching staff. Moving to the 9th inning of Game 4 with a two-run lead, they seemed on their way to a sweep. But Sun-Ju Choy came to the plate with two on and two out and gave the Vipers fans something to cheer about, knocking one out of the park to get Mumbai in the win column for the series.

No worries for Kiev, though. Riding their ace, Henry Jones, they returned the next night to take care of business. Jones pitched around two home runs to outduel Hidenosuke Kataoka and sent the Comets on to the World Series championship. It was his second of win the series; he also pitched 7 strong innings in Game 1.
