It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact Centerville can now relate to. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (9-8), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time. They have struggled against the Raiders recently, as the game was their third consecutive lost meeting.
Jacob Alford was a force to be reckoned with on the mound despite the final result: he pitched 4.1 innings while giving up just two earned runs off one hit. He has been consistent: he hasn't given up more than two hits in five consecutive appearances.
