HELENA - In an improbable turn of events, the Brooklyn Bombers swept a 3 game series with the Helena Handbaskets pushing them to a 2 game lead in the Socratic League.
The Helena offense could not get anything going being shutout in the first two games losing them both 2-0. In the first game, Rookie Trever Canela pitched 7 shutout innings only giving up 2 hits earning his 12th win of the season earning the line of the weak for the Bombers
"Our pitching really came through when it needed to." Said Bombers Manager George Welsh, "We knew we had to go to Helena and show the league who is now in charge, and we did just that."
The manager for Helena could not be reached for comment, but they did come back the follow day to win a wild 15 inning game against the leader in the Platonic League Seattle Ministry of Silly Walks 11-6 by scoring 5 runs in the top of the 15th showing that in interleague play the Socratic League still dominates.
The tight race in the Socratic continues next week with Brooklyn traveling to Jersey City for a 2 game series. This race will come down to the wire with only 2 of the 3 teams making the playoffs.
