USC players in CPL playoffs .

  • Hunter Privette and Drake Thomason with 5 shutout innings in Forest City's 14 inning loss to Ashboro (3 for Privette, 2 for Thomason). In Columbia's 7-5 win over Wilmington Graham Saiko was 3-for-5 with a double, and Zach Smith had a pair of doubles in 4 trips . Josh Knab allowed a run in the 9th but picked up the save . So tonight will not be the final game at Capital City Park . If the Blowfish lose, they will play at home again on Monday night . If they win they go to the second round of the playoffs .

    Encouraged by Drakes pitching the last couple of games.

    You know, I've noticed in a lot of his starts this summer that he was pretty good the first 2 or 3 innings . Maybe short relief is his role right now .

    Could be. You can never have enough guys in the pen getting outs.

  • Tuesday (final game) - Blowfish win 8-3 and are the CPL champs . Zack Smith was 1-for-5 and Graham Saiko was 1-for-3 with a 3 run homer (his third home run of the playoffs) . Saiko was pinch hit for in the 7th inning . Not sure what that was about . He was hit by a pitch earlier in the game (before his home run) so I hope there was no injury .

    PS - Congratulations to coaches Brian Buscher and Jon Coutlangus, in addition to the players .
