The Huntsville Stars fell 6-7 to the Chattanooga Lookouts in the decisive fifth game and is now eliminated. It would have been nice if Huntsville had advanced since 2014 is the final year that Huntsville will be home to the Stars. Next year the team will play in Biloxi, Mississippi.

A Full Season
Last night’s game was one soon to forget for the Hagerstown Suns.
The Suns were out hit (12-23) and outscored (7-16) by the Asheville Tourists. Spencer Kieboom caught the game for five innings but still got an at bat in the sixth. Spencer didn’t collect a hit and struck out once in the three at bats that he got.

A Short Season

The lineup of the State College Spikes was held in check by Joe Mushgrove (7 innings in which he allowed two hits and fanned eight), Ryan Thompson (1 perfect inning) and Derick Velazquez (1 inning in which he allowed one hit, walked one and struck out one). The Spikes collected three hits in total and Darren Seferina got one of them. In total Darren had four at bats. He was the centerpiece of a 6-4-3 double play.
