It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact Denver City can now relate to. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (5-0), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time. The matchup marked the first time this year in which they were not able to get on the board.
Andres Ornelas spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned (and four unearned) runs on six hits. He has been nothing but reliable: he hasn't given up more than one earned run in six consecutive appearances.
