Game 4 - A muncy homer gives the home squad and early lead, but a Muncy error leads to 3 unearned runs to give it right back to the Hermits. Haliburton then commits 2 errors to allow UCity to tie it the 7th. But a Ruiz double plates a run in the 8th and their pen holds for a 4-3 win. Game 5 - 6 of the first 12 Anunnaki batters have XBH as the home races out to a 5-1 lead. This, however, does not evem come close to holding, as Haliburton scores 2 in the 5th, 4 in the 6th and 2 more in the 7th, to take a 9-5 lead. Ucity claws 2 back in the 8th, but a Torkelson homer makes it 10-7. Unfortunately for the Hermits, Smith could not hold it, as O'Hoppe goes deep to tie it. The pitching somehow, stunningly takes over, even as the pens empty. After UCity's last reliever leaves the game in the 15th due to injury, they go with Taijuan Walker, the next day's starter. He gets out of the inning and then finally, O'Hopper, the guy who did not let this game die a natural death, comes through with a 2 out hit to end it. Game 6 - The Annunaki bash Bello for 2 in the 1st, 5 in the 2nd, and 3 in the 5th and survive a Peguero near-meltdown to take the rubber game 10-6. Walker is now on a totally-sustainable pace for 81 victories this year.
