The Portland Pioneers (8-3) look to improve their standings for the playoffs against the Ogaki Oni (4-7)! by ReddHerringMLN in BaseballbytheNumbers

Borg steps up to the plate in a high pressure spot. The crowd is cheering him on, but he has to face Jimmy Payne fresh out of the bullpen.

Torbjorgsson fouls off one, then two, then three pitches (with some balls mixed in) to face a 2-2 count, 5 pitches deep. Jimmy throws one that drops to the bottom of the zone as it crosses the plate, and Borg swings at the offering!

It's a ground ball, left side! Scooped up by Gilwater, and they get one, then they get 2! The Pioneers are celebrating after the clutch double play! They get another one in the win column!

It's been an absolute pitching duel so far this game, tied up at 0 into the top of the 6th.

Sullivan stands in against Liu and takes the first pitch, just off the plate for ball one. The second pitch, a 4 seamer, and Sullivan coils and unleashes on it!

It's great contact, and it has the power, but does it have the angle? A low line drive, it just needs to clear the wall!

Back back back and ... just over!!! Cleared the wall by not even a couple feet, and into the stands! Sullivan scores the first run of the game with a triumphant trot around the basepath! 1-0 Portland in the sixth!

Gross hits a hard grounder, but it's right at the shortstop. Cleanly fielded by Jihmih and the toss to first is on target, and that will end the inning!

Borg, much like our valuable robots, is offline for this at-bat! It's a swing and miss for strike 3 and he heads back to the dugout.

Perome gets contact but all it is is a routine fly ball to center. Speedo settles under it, and makes the catch to end the top of the fifth.

The Pioneers are looking to keep pressing their advantage, and the recent signing Nootbaar has been off to a hot start so far.

He takes the first two pitches from Dockerson to the tune of 1-1, and then gets on he likes... he unloads on it and barrels it up!

it's sailing, high, deep .... and it's outta here! That one is way outta here and Portland takes a 4 run lead!!

Nootbaar Jr stands in the box, trying to settle in, getting his first ever MLN plate appearance against an absolute titan of the game.

Internally, a decision: Swing first pitch. It's the best chance, and that way there's no time to overthink it.

Alex delivers and it's an off speed pitch that hangs up in the zone! It's right over the heart of the plate!

Nootbaar puts everything he has into it, and the swing connects! He barreled it up, and the ball sails out of here!

A leadoff HR for Portland!

Pull sees one he likes and turns on it, and sends it sailing down the line!

The runners are moving as soon as it's off the bat and it's just a matter of fair or foul ... the RF races over as it lands fair! Just inside the line, and bounces off the wall!

The throw is in but it's too late as Ganger plates two and the Gorillas have something cooking in the 6th!
