Rhinos 3, Zaps 2

Game 1 (10 Apr) Rhinos win 13-3

Rhino bats explode for 18 hits, 16 of them against Scherzer while Matt Garza tip-toed his way through the Zapper line-up allowing only 5 hits of which 2 were homers to Bautista and Cabrera.

Game 2 (11 Apr) Rhinos win 4-3

In a wild 17 inning affair the Rhinos win on a two out X chance to right field (Bautista) which resulted in a double and 2 base error. The Rhinos paid dearly for the win as Venters went 7 innings and Axford went another 4. The Zappers had numerous chances and failed to capitalize on Axford's wildness as pitches himself into trouble, tiring himself after one inning.

Game 3 (4 Jul) Zaps win 5-0

Greinke and Beniot shutout the Rhinos allowing only 8 hits.

Game 4 (5 Jul) Rhinos win 16-6

After the embarrassment of being shutout the day before, the Rhinos take it out on the Zapper starter J. Niese, pounding out 14 hits and getting 7 walks to score 15 runs. The Rhinos smacked 4 HR's to include a Grand Slam by Tulo in the 5th.

Game 5 (6 Jul) Zaps win 4-0

The Zaps pitching returned to form as J. Nicasio and Scott Downs shutout the Rhinos allowing only 6 hits. Beckett pitched a 6 hitter himself and was disappointed with loss as he had only given up 1-2 roll (HR) by R. Martin in the 3rd before losing control in the 9th and serving up a 3 run HR to McCutchen.
