Go Kannapolis!  Adams for AAA

[Autumn Dreamin]

Kanny finally breaks through in what had been a pitcher's duel.

8K, 1H, 1BB, in the first three innings, but they rallied for 3 runs in the 4th.

Doubles for Arxy and Burrowes, a single for Jeral Perez, and a huge 2 out 2 RBI triple for Asigen.

McDougal has been pitching very well despite getting squeezed at times.

7K, 1 "BB" for him through 4. Kanny leads 3-0 after 4 in this must win game. 

Weird situation where the game is scheduled for 7 innings so they can fit in the decider if it's (hopefully) needed.

[Autumn Dreamin]

Kanny lives on! McDougal was fantastic with 5 hitless.

Aaron Combs closed it out with 2IP, 1H, 1BB).

7 innings left to crown a champion.

Okay, who is Al Asigen?

[Autumn Dreamin]

Montgomery goes 109 mph 414 to CF off a LHP. Scored Julks (walk) and Elko (single). Knights trail 6-5.

Kanny batters are having a very tough time vs. the recently named Carolina League pitcher of the year Travis Sykora. They're down 2-0 after 3.

Man am I happy to see Colson finishing strong.

[Autumn Dreamin]

Knights win 9-8 in extras after being down as much as 6-2.

Colson's 3 run HR was big, as were bases loaded walks from him and Elko to tie the game in the 9th.

He finished 2-5 with a BB, HR, and 4 RBI. His other hit was a 104mph single.

Elko was 2-5 with 3 RBI. Julks 2-4 with 2 BB and a SB.

Adams sat down his first 6 in order before getting burned on a pair of doubles and a HR. He finished with 4IP, 4H, 3ER 1BB, 3K.

Scoreless 2K innings for Peralta and Coffey.

[Autumn Dreamin]

Kanny falls short in an anticlimactic final.

They were shutout on 1 hit and lost 3-0 in a reverse of Game 2. 

The pitching hung in there, but one bad pitch from Mason Moore went over the fence for 2 runs and nerves got to the defense late for an unearned third run.

Maybe would have had better luck without the rainout forcing a DH, but a division title is still cool.

Was especially nice to see them advance despite all of the roster turnover, and they got a lot of solid contributions from the new faces down the stretch.

More of this. Bring in high level talent, good culture, good coaching and player development. Savvy minor league signings and undrafted players. Bring these kids up in a winning culture.
