It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Goshen had no problem doing just that on Monday. They were the clear victors by a 7-1 margin over the Northridge Raiders. This was a revenge game for the RedHawks: when they faced off against the Raiders back in May, they had to take a 3-2 loss.
Ryen Diaz spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: he surrendered only one earned run on seven hits. He is becoming a predictor of Goshen's success: when he allows at most one earned run the team is 3-1 (and 8-12 when he doesn't).
