It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Estancia had no problem doing just that on Wednesday. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 2-1 win over the Mary Star of the Sea Stars. That's two games straight that the Eagles have won by just one run.
Nico Viramontes spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered a run (which was unearned) on four hits. He also tossed no earned runs, which is notable because Estancia is 10-1 when he allows at most two earned runs, but 11-12 otherwise.
