Wild Card Series: Hollywood vs Philadelphia

Game 1

B's Edge Grays 5-4 to Open R1

The Hollywood B's faced a tough opponent in Philadelphia Grays pitcher Tom Weaver, but did just enough to pull out a win in Game 1 of the Wildcard Series, which they now lead 1-0. The B's won 5-4 at Ballpark of Philadelphia, despite the Grays getting a strong start from right-hander Weaver, who went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs.

Hollywood used a clutch hit from Will Daugherty to get the win. The shortstop drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the B's ahead, 5-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I just tried to make good contact," said Daugherty.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Bee Hive in Los Angeles.
