Story summary

The Winnipeg Goldeyes were eliminated from playoff contention after being swept by the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks in a two-game series ending Friday night at Blue Cross Park. The Goldeyes led Game 2 5-3 but surrendered a three-run homer to Matt Kroon in the ninth inning, resulting in their 6-5 loss and a final score of 2-0 for the best-of-three series. Derrick Cherry, the Goldeyes' closer, allowed his second blown save of the season with this home run. Despite strong performances from Kevin Vaupel, who pitched five innings without earning a decision, and Sage Ferguson, who tossed three shutout relief innings, the RedHawks advanced to face either the Kansas City Monarchs or the Sioux Falls Canaries in the next round; that series will go to a decisive third game on Saturday.
