Diplan is REALLY good when he can throw strikes.... Huira is back after awful August

[markedman5]

2-5 hr and 6 rbis for Hiura

[folly412]

Saw Diplan a few times last year and early this year in Carolina and never came away impressed. Overall numbers are deceptive - he's really had a breakout season.

Final: Biloxi 9, Pensacola 1

Biloxi Box Score

 

Biloxi is heading to the Southern League Championship Series thanks to a dominating pitching performance by Marcos Diplan and some loaded bats, in particular Keston Hiura, who drove in six runs with an HR and a double.

 

Diplan was outstanding, giving up only one hit, two walks and one run. He struck out 10 to snag the win. Cody Ponce and Brad Kuntz would finish out the game without giving up any runs.

 

Biloxi had quite a few hitting stars, but Hiura's six RBI (on two hits, including an HR) was the highlight. Trent Grisham had three hits, while Weston Wilson and Troy Stokes, Jr. each had two hits.

 

The Shuckers will begin the Championship Series on Tuesday night, September 11. That will give them a couple of days rest. They will face either Montgomery or Jackson for the league title.

Troy Stokes Jr.: 2-3, BB, 2 SB

Playoff stats don’t count in the season stats right?

Correct. Playoff stats don't count for regular season stats.
