Phormer Phils top Reading

Anthony Gose and Travis d'Arnaud had 2 hits each, including combining for a run in the 1st inning, to help the New Hampshire Fisher Cats beat Reading, 2-0 in the first game of their playoff series. Reading managed just 4 hits on the night, wasting a very good performance by Tyler Cloyd. Tyler scattered 8 hits and 2 walks over 6.2 innings, striking out 8 and keeping the R-Phils in the game. Bobby Korecky threw the 9th inning to pick up the save for New Hampshire. Reading will turn to J.C. Ramirez to try to get even in game 2 tonight.

In Allentown, Freddy Galvis homered and the IronPigs won their first ever playoff game, 4-2 over Pawtucket. Justin DeFratus threw a 1-2-3 9th inning and notched the save. Lehigh Valley will try to make it 2 in a row at Coca Cola Park Friday night.

In Reno, Adrian Cardenas took an 0 for 4 and the Sacramento River Cats dropped a 4-2 decision to the Aces and fell behind 2 games to 0 in the best of 5 series.
