Testa Law Reds 11, East Providence Marlins 7
In game 1 of the series, it quickly became a battle of the bullpens as both starters were touched for runs early. Randy Garcia earned the W for the Reds, firing 3 gutsy innings of 1 run ball while the Reds were able to get out to a sizable lead. Finlay O'Hara took the ball, with 2 innings in relief. The Reds offense, powered by multi-hit efforts from Shepherd, Mercado, Garcia, Gomez, & Cesino gave the Reds a lead comfortable enough for old wily veteran Graham to toe the rubber for an uneventful 9th. |
