Game 1 - Drillers win 5-1 in 10 innings.

Brandon Belt immediately singled the runner home to tie the game. The Drillers, so glad Fernandez was gone, pounded reliever Tommy Milone (0-3) in the 10th.

Game 4 - Drillers win 5-3. The Driller bats finally awoke for 10 hits. Evan Longoria went 3-3 with a walk and needed only a homer for the cycle.
