Almost There: Halifax On Cusp of ACBC Triumph After 7-2 Win
Game was big. So was Will Duke.

The Halifax starter rose to the occasion at Mexicali Grounds today, earning player of the game honors after leading the Golden Giants to a crucial 7-2 victory over the Mexicali Crossings. Duke threw 7 innings of 1-hit ball as the Golden Giants won on the road to seize a - lead in the best-of- ACB Championship.

In his 95-pitch effort, Duke allowed 1 earned run on 1 hit over 7 innings. He walked 1 and struck out 1.

"We were a little off-kilter to start the series, but we're getting things figured out now," Halifax manager Anthony Puhl told reporters. "At least I hope we are."

Game 4 is set to be played tomorrow. Slated to start are Louis Hutchinson for Halifax and Mark Tucker for Mexicali.
