Vancouver edged the Endzone Animals in game 3 yesterday to win their best-of-5 series. Once again Michael Cuddyer carried the offense, going 3-5 with 2 RBIs. Cuddyer ends the series hitting .769/.786/1.692 with a 2.478 OPS, 3 homers and 10 RBIs. Both starting pitchers were solid in their efforts. Randy Wells, who earned the win for Vancouver, pitched 7.2 innings, holding the Animals to 3 runs on 10 hits, while Jered Weaver gave up 4 runs - 2 earned - in 6.2 innings, while striking out 7. Philly held the lead until the 7th when Cuddyer singled in Lyle Overbay from second. Then Vancouver took the lead after Jason Kubel doubled in Garrett Jones. Ronald Belisario closed out the game for his second save of the series.
Sardine City tries to avoid the same fate as Philadelphia today, but has to do it in the unfriendly confines of the Sugar Bowl. Sardine City will send lefty Cole Hamels to face another lefty, Ted Lilly. The Sardines were 3-0 against the Sugar Bears with Hamels on the mound during the regular season, while the Sugar Bears are 0-2 with Lilly taking the mound, including one matchup against Hamels.
