It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact South Allegheny can now relate to. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (2-0), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time. Considering the last time they couldn't score was back in April, the team can't take the result too hard.
For Riverside's part, Zach Hare was a major factor no matter where he played. He looked comfortable on the mound, not allowing a single earned run and only two hits while striking out 11 over six innings pitched. Hare has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't tossed less than six strikeouts in six consecutive pitching appearances. Hare was also big at the plate, going 2-for-2 with a double.
Hare wasn't the only one making solid contact as four players wound up with at least one hit. One of them was Sam Barber, who scored a run while going 1-for-3.
South Allegheny's loss dropped their record down to 11-4. As for Riverside, the win (which was their fifth in a row) raised their record to 16-1.
As of now, neither South Allegheny nor Riverside have any future games scheduled.
