Vancouver missed a golden opportunity to clinch the final playoff spot yesterday, but instead had to settle for clinching a tie. The Fist dropped a 6-4 decision to Sardine City, leaving the defending champions 3 games ahead of Arkansas and Philadelphia with only 3 games left to go. Arkansas lost 5-3 to Marietta on Brandon Phillips' grand slam in the 5th. Meanwhile, the Endzone Animals were smoked by Hoboken 12-4. Aaron Cook took a shutout into the 9th but gave up two two-run homers in the innings.
Hillsborough gained a 1/2 game on Carolina in a 7-5 defeat of the injury-ravaged Rat Pack. Ryan Howard was 2-4 with 2 homers and 3 RBIs in the contest. Hillsborough is now 1 game behind Morris Division leader Carolina and 2 games ahead of Las Vegas in the wild card standings. This series is looking more and more likely to continue on into the post-season - as of now, if the season ended, the Rat Pack and Hillsborough would meet in the first round of the playoffs.
