Dog Catchers 3, Apostles 2

That was pretty much all we could hope for, and CDC still had 11 hits! Carbondale sweeps the 4g series. The scoring started in the third, when Dukes hit a 1-15 SI followed by a wild pitch and a Pujols double. In the 5th, Pujols singled but Delmon threw it away trying to get the runner, 2-zip CDC. Saint Gabriel tied it up on a 2-R BP HR by Cabrera in the sixth. Carbondale had a chance to win it in the eighth when Upton hit a flyball to Delmon Young with Vladdy on third. 1-10 to score, but DY nailed him at home. However, in the 9th, Young singled to right (Lind's +1 instead of Ich's -5 because of a PH earlier). Byrd was waved around third at 1-17 to score and made it easily.
