Vancouver took game one of their series with the Endzone Animals. Zack Greinke continued his excellent season with an 8-inning, 2-hit effort. Greinke struck out 9 and gave up two runs as the Iron Fist won 6-2. Michael Cuddyer was the star of the offense, going 3-3 with 3 RBIs. Vancouver piled on early. Despite giving up two early runs in the first inning, the Fist came right back with 4 runs. Cuddyer tacked on a solo homer in the 3rd and then hit an RBI double in the 5th to give Vancouver some breathing room. Jake Peavy will face Roy Halladay in today's matchup. Both teams are 1-0 against their respective opponents, though both pitchers were effective in their losses.
The Sardine City Straphangers officially begin their first ever playoff run, sending Josh Johnson to the mound against Newark's Javier Vazquez. Sardine City was 7-6 in the season series with Newark. The Sardines were 5-1 against Newark at the Cannery this year and 1-1 against Vazquez. Newark is 1-1 against Johnson as well.
