Fargo Background

Fargo-Moorhead 7, Kansas City 4 – Box

Down 4-3 heading into the ninth inning it seemed like the Kansas City T-Bones were poised to pick up a win against the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks. However, the RedHawks proved resilient and mustered up four runs in the top of the frame to grab the lead and put some padding on it as well. After that quick bit of scoring, RedHawk reliver Nate Garcia was able to keep the Kansas City hitters at bay and secure the win. Garcia didn’t allow a single hit or walk in the ninth, and struck out a T-Bone batter as well. SS Zach Penprase had three hits for Fargo-Moorhead out of the two-hole including a double and a triple.

Winnipeg 7, Lincoln 4 – Box
