That's because they couldn't handle Jake Buchanan.
Pankovits:
"I can't say enough about Jake Buchanan. He saved his best for last."
Chris Wallace:
"He had his best stuff tonight. His two-seamer and his change-up were giving them fits. He did a great job locating his pitches. They didn't stand a chance."
Buchanan:
"My two-seam fastball was feeling pretty good. So I just tried to jam them up inside. The wind was blowing in, and I wasn't afraid to use the fastball."
Buchanan, in the Troy Record:
"I was really efficient with my pitches. They're an aggressive team, so just mostly fastballs in and they were just up there hacking, getting easy outs. They were justing playing into my hands."
It may have been the last game played in Batavia. Attendance for last night's game? 601.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
