EXL: Jablonec home premier ended in loss

All ten Extraliga teams played on Sunday, but only one of the home teams won.

In the third game of the series, Draci needed to win against Tempo, as they were sixth in the league standings. The game wouldn’t be easy for them, however, as the home team started Jake Rabinowitz. Draci decided to go with young David Mergans. And it was the away pitcher, who came atop of the pitching duel, when he only allowed one run in six innings. Not to be outshone, Milan Prokop, another youngster in Draci lineup, had two homeruns and contributed to three Draci runs. In the end, Draci took 5-2 win and stopped their loosing streak.

Prague derby between Kotlářka and Eagles was going better for Eagles. But Kotlářka pressed offensively in the first inning on Sunday and started the game with 4-0 lead. They also had Tate Gillespie on the mound, who is improving match to match and who held Eagles offense. In five innings, he only allowed one run. Away team continued their offense, increasing the lead to 10-1 in the sixth inning and it seemed they were well on the way to get the first win in the series. However, Eagles wouldn’t give up and they started to rack up runs once Kotlářka bullpen came in play. In the bottom of the eight inning, they scored five runs and came only three runs from levelling the score. Kotlářka sent Štěpán Dupal on the mound, who was able, thanks to four strikeouts, to keep the score unchanged.

The conditions in Jablonec were finally sufficient for them to play at home. In the first inning, they were able to score historically first Extraliga run in Jablonec, after Jan Výbora got home on Radek Šulc hit. But visitors got on a roll after that. It was mainly Michael Vykoukal, with 2 homeruns and 5 RBI, who did the most damage. Additionally, young Filip Votava threw 7 innings, only allowing three hits to the home team. Jablonec didn’t win in the first ever Extraliga game on the home field, and after loosing 0-3 in the series, their hopes of getting into TOP 6 are diminishing.

Hroši and Třebíč split two games in the series. The winner was to be decided in the last game that was played in Brno. Both teams entered the game aggressively, each scoring three runs in the first inning. While visitors managed to continue the trend, Hroši stayed scoreless for a while. Away starter Justin Revels improved in the following innings and he held home batters. In the end, he was able to throw seven innings, only allowing Hroši four runs. In the eight inning, visitors increased their lead to 12-4 and they sent Matěj Brabec on the mound. He allowed a small drama in the ninth inning, when home team scored two runs but it wasn’t enough to level the score. Třebíč won 12-6 and currently holds the same 9-6 record as their opponent.
