Milling Series - Game 1: #2 Kona Pipeline vs #3WC Crooked Crab Furious George
While Kona comes into this matchup as the higher seed, Crooked Crab will have the possibility of 6-time Pitcher of the Year winner Jim Stamey tossing 2 of 5 games, so the pressure is on. Fortunately for Kona, they were able to make Stamey toss more pitches than he might want early on, chasing him from the game after just 5 innings of work and 99 pitches. Unfortunately for Kona, he was still Jim Stamey and only gave up 1 run off 5 hits with 2 walks and 8 strikeouts. On the flip side, Kona starter Brendan Poole struggled and only lasted 2.1 innings, giving up 5 runs on 6 hits as Crooked Crab would claim a 6-1 win to open the series.
