Graeve Blasts Desert Storm, Porters Take Game 4, 9-3
The Dublin Porters and the Arizona Desert Storm will take the Divisional Series to a decisive 5th game. In a must-win situation, the Porters beat the Desert Storm, 9-3, at Desert Storm Stadium to force the series into what will essentially be a one-game playoff. Dublin catcher Noel Graeve went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2.

Dublin used a well-timed hit by Jesse Oswald to capture the win. The center fielder socked a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Porters ahead, 4-2. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Graeve.

The next game is set to be played for Monday, October 12th , 2048 at Porters Ballpark in Dublin.
