Dylan and Jesse each homered in the second inning, providing all the runs Shady Characters would need to win game one
After a surprising game one loss, Shady Characters rebounded in game two, taking an early lead and holding off a sixth inning Cheap Goats rally to win a hard-fought game two, splitting the best-of-five first round series at 1-1. Dylan and Jesse each homered in the second inning, when Shady Characters scored all five of their runs. It turned out to be just enough, and the defending champs avoided falling into an early hole against last place Cheap Goats.
Lucas took the mound for Shady Characters, and the first batter he faced, Joey, led off the game with a double. Bob followed with an RBI single, scoring Joey to put Cheap Goats ahead 1-0. Joe followed with a single, putting two Cheap Goats runners on with no outs. It looked as if Lucas was in trouble, but he escaped the jam. He retired Christian and Dinger to strand both runners, minimizing the damage, and Cheap Goats led 1-0.
