scenario Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 Game recap from milb.com Voyagers nearing top Pioneer prize 09/12/2008 12:24 AM ET By Alan Friedman / Special to MLB.com The Orem Owlz bested the Great Falls White Sox in last year's Pioneer League Championship Series. Great Falls, now known as the Voyagers, moved within a game of being declared this year's champs Thursday. Zach Larson homered and Dexter Carter struck out nine over five innings as the host Voyagers edged the Owlz, 4-3. Game 2 will be played Friday in Orem. Larson smacked a two-run homer to left field to cap a fourth-inning outburst in which the Voyagers did all of their scoring. "Larson has been an unsung hero for us all year," Great Falls manager Chris Cron said. "His homer gave us our four-run lead." Johny Celis hit a run-scoring double and Kent Gerst chipped in an RBI groundout during the rally. Carter (1-0) allowed two runs on four hits and two walks to pick up the win. Daniel Albritton gave up a run on two hits, striking out three and walking one over three frames, while Ronald Morales and Dan Remenowsky combined to retire the Owlz in a scoreless ninth. Remenowsky, who recorded the final two outs with the tying run on second, notched his second save. "Dexter Carter has been great all year," Cron said. "He kept the game in check for us. And then the bullpen came in and did a great job. Dan was outstanding." Carter was 6-1 with a 2.23 ERA in 15 appearances -- 12 starts -- this season. Beau Brooks cranked a solo homer in the seventh for Orem. Cron sees a role reversal from last year for both teams. "Last year we were the best team on paper and they were about .500 and they ended up beating us," he said. "This year, they're the better team on paper. I hope history repeats itself. But they're not going to roll over. They're an awesome organization, and we're going to have to earn it." Jayson Miller (1-1) surrendered four unearned runs on seven hits, striking out six and walking one over seven innings for the loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scenario Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Going to extras. Very tense end to the 9th. Orem loaded the bases with 2 outs against GF's closer... bringing Roberto Lopez, the Pioneer League MVP who hit .400 this year to the plate. Lopez hit a shot to the warning track that Lyndon Estill snagged with a great catch... saving the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scenario Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 (edited) Mike Grace hit a homerun in the top of the 11th inning. GF up 2-1 going into the bottom of the 11th. Lead off hitter got a duck snort to lead off. The second batter struck out. The runner on first stole 2nd and advanced to 3rd on a bad throw from GF catcher. Ohhh... ****. The next guy up hit a double to tie the game again... and put the winning run on 2nd with one out. The next guy strikes out. And then with two outs, the next batter hits a drive to deep right again saved on a great catch by Estill. We move to the top of the 12th. Edit: And now to the 13th. BTW - Video highlights of this game will be available tomorrow on the site FutureAngels.com. Edited September 13, 2008 by scenario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scenario Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 (edited) 13 was unlucky for Great Falls. Orem got the leadoff man on followed by two quick outs. Then a routine groundball to SS Lee Fischer was booted, putting men on 1st and 2nd for Roberto Lopez. Lopez, the league's leading hitter, got a hit and drove in the winning run. Great Falls lost 3-2. Tomorrow night (Saturday) is the 3rd and deciding game... one game takes all for the league championship. Should be exciting.

JPN366 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 Funny thing is, everybody hated Chris Cron when he managed the Barons in 2006. He just acted like he didn't care. He also bookended the playoff streak of the Barons from 2000 to 2005. He managed the Barons in 1999 and they didn't go to the playoffs and in 2006 as well.
