GAME 3
THE SAINTS ENTERED THE FINAL DAY OF THE TOURNAMENT DETERMINED TO RIGHT UNDESERVED WRONGS. HOWEVER, BEFORE WE COULD GET TO THE OHIO TITANS, THE SAINTS WOULD HAVE TO DEFEAT THE CLEVELAND MOSQUITOES FOR A SECOND TIME.
LEFTY SCOTT CHISHOLM TOOK THE HILL FOR THE SAINTS. HE SURVIVED A ROCKY 2ND. INNING TO THROW A GEM. CHIZ WENT THE DISTANCE, STRIKING OUT 4 AND WALKING 1. HE GAVE UP 3 RUNS ON 6 HITS, BUT ONLY 2 HITS AFTER THE 2ND.
THE SAINT BATS WERE MORE ACTIVE, WITH CATALYST ANDY BLACKWELL GOING 3 FOR 3, WITH 3 STOLEN BASES. A KEY BASES LOADED SINGLE BY NATE THIMONS OPENED THE SCORING, WHICH WAS FOLLOWED BY 2 SECOND INNING RUNS. THOSE RUNS PROVED TO BE ENOUGH TO SECURE THE 4-3 SAINT VICTORY AND REMATCH WITH THE HOST TIANS IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP.
