Media, PA – Win this one and you punch your ticket to the Championship game on Saturday.

With the season series tied at one, this game was sure to be a struggle for both teams. After two innings, the game was tied 1-1 and after 4 innings the game was tied 4-4. Something had to give. The fifth inning was where the Indians came alive, scoring five runs and never having to look back. Jason Coury and Harrison Maull provided the offense with four hits and five RBI between them throughout the game. They also were great on the hill to lead their team to victory. Mike Skerritt added two hits and two RBI as well and was key behind the plate for the tribe. Cooper Bittle was also strong behind the dish throwing out a would be thief at third.

The Cardinals were powered by their pitching in this one. Sean Gorman pitched three innings giving up only two runs. Nick Rosen and Blayke Reid were also very good. Rosen also added two hits and Blayke Reid added a triple to the Cardinal offense.

The Indians' opponent in the Championship game? We will know Thursday night.
