2018 Championship Series Game 4

Major League:

Ryan Jones gave Bay Area a 1-0 lead with a 1st inning single.  Miguel Cruz drove in the second run in the 3rd.  Cruz homered in the 5th off Stephen Hamburg, and Jones added a homer in the 8th.  Chris Mendez had a 1 hitter over 7 innings for the Bandits, who evened the series at 2 games each as they won the game 4-0.

Superior League:

Utah put 2 runners on with 2 out in the third inning of a scoreless tie.  Erick Reinfelder hit a 3 run homer off Nick Lawson, who was visibly upset on the mound.  The next batter was Frank Lewis.  After working a 3-2 count, Lewis fouled a pitch off.  The next one came inside and hit Frank on the butt.  After an exchange of words, Lewis charged the mound and got into a fight with Lawson.  Both benches cleared.  After order was restored, both Lewis and Lawson were ejected.

In the bottom of the inning Miami loaded the bases with 2 out against Jeff Powell.  The next batter bounced one to second base, where Steve Taylor bobbled it for an error.  One batter later another ground ball to Taylor turned into an error as the throw pulled Derek Tufnel off the bag.  Utah led 3-2.

In the 6th inning Stars catcher Todd Merkich singled with one out and was replaced by OF/LHP Roberto Gonzales.  He stole second, but was stranded on base after ground outs by Ricky Buckley and Oswipe Cabrera.  /Utah added an insurance run in the 8th when Robert Calderin, who replaced Lewis in the lineup, hit a solo homer off Travis Howard.

Closing Ute Harry Archer started the 8th inning and gave up a single to Arceneaux, followed by a game tying homer to Trevor Burton.  Nobody scored in the 9th, forcing extra innings.

In the 10th, Calderin homered again, this time off Dwight Schrute, to give Utah a 5-4 lead. The lead would not last long as Arceneaux homered off Archer in the bottom of the inning.  Schrute stayed in the game for the 11th and struck out the side.

In the bottom 11th Oswipe Cabrera doubled with one out.  Adrian Hubbard popped to first, bringing up Peter Rabbitt.  Rabbitt drove a pitch from Marcelino Lopez the other way, sending it over the wall, a distance of 408 feet to give Miami a 7-5 victory.

After the game, Frank Lewis was asked what made him charge the mound, something he had never done before despite holding the league record with 329 times hit by pitch.  Frank responded "He called me a fat yoda".

Lawson later disputed this, but did not reveal what was actually said to the jawa.
