Critical Game 5 Goes to Host Marshals, 4-3
Fernando Garcia pitched effectively, but the Hartford Matadors still lost, 4-3, in extra innings to the Baxter Springs Marshals at Marshals Ballpark. With the win, Baxter Springs took a 3-2 lead in the best-of-7 League Championship Series. Garcia pitched well, allowing 3 runs over 8 innings.

Batting in the bottom of the tenth, 28-year old second baseman Johnny Pullam had a real shot to win the game. Hartford pitcher Everton Jackson was determined not to let it happen. But with two outs, Pullam hit a run-scoring single. The Marshals had a walk-off triumph.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Baxter Springs manager Justin Watts. "It's usually not just one thing."

The next game is set to be played for Thursday, October 8th , 2026 at Ballpark of Tacoma in Hartford.
