9/20 Games

After stranding the bases loaded twice earlier in the game, the Barons finally come through in the 8th to break a 3-3 tie.

The rally was a team effort, but Nishida's speed was a big factor.

He got on with a leadoff IF single:

And then got Gonzo an RBI IF single when the pitcher thought he maybe had a shot to get Rikuu at home (lol no) and then overthrew first trying to compensate:

They score 3 in total, and lead 6-3 with 3 outs to go. Eric Adler on the bump for the save chance.

Barons win 6-3 for the division title and advance to the Championship series! Best of 3, starting Sunday.

A Schultz playoff start perhaps...?

Gowens was great today even though he ran into a little trouble in the 6th.

Pallette with another solid 2 innings in relief (he gave up a tough luck unearned run) and the W.

The bats left a small village on the bases (14 LOB, 3-10 with RISP), but having runners on base in every inning gave them enough chances to break through eventually.

The Barons were the only team with a winning record vs. the Smokies in the regular season, and it mattered here. They edged them out by half a game in the first half, which is why they got two at home despite the Smokies having a much better second half and overall record.
