Almost There: Oakland On Cusp of DS Triumph After 8-5 Win
Riding the 3-hit performance of catcher Gustavo Rawson, the Oakland Invaders got a road win against the Cincinnati Royals, 8-5, in Game 4 of the Divisional Series. Rawson was 3-4 with a home run and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Invaders, who now lead the best-of-7 series, 3 games to 1.

Rawson had a consequential at-bat in the top of the fifth for the Invaders. Coming up with runners on 1st and 2nd and Oakland trailing 1-0, he hit a 3-run home run.

Royals manager Brad McBride did not take questions after the game, telling assembled reporters that he would hold a press conference "if and when we win the World Series."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at The Castle in Cincinnati.
