Maui defeated Saskatoon, 4-3, to take Game 1of their playoff series. Saskatoon held the lead most of the game, until Maui pushed two across in the top of the ninth on two singles, a HBP, a walk (to force in the tying run) and a sac fly to give them the lead.
Meanwhile, up in the Pacific Northwest, Seattle played catch-up to come from behind and defeat Hickory 4-3. Seattle tied the game in the 7th on a solo homer by Tyler Thomas and took the lead in the 8th on a walk to John Hukill (who was substituted for pinch runner Ivan Castillo) a wild pitch and a single by Steve Jones.
Game 2 on Wednesday night
That leaves Hickory 0-4 in the first games of a playoff series (all against Seattle). On the bright side though, Hickory is 3-0 against Seattle in Game 2's, so it looks good for Frank tonight.
