Royals, Pines Play 10 to Settle Game 2, Cincinnati Now Leads Series 2-0
With right-hander Stuart Maness leading the charge, the Cincinnati Royals got past the Maine Pines, 4-3, in extra innings in Game 2 of the Divisional Series. Maness threw 6.0 innings allowing 1 run at Oakhurst Field as Cincinnati managed to grab a 2-0 lead in the best-of-7 series.

Aaron Jalbert, who finished 3rd in the NC in batting average with .311 in 2025, had a direct impact on the outcome. Jalbert contributed a run-scoring double in the top of the tenth inning to put Cincinnati up, 4-3.

"Stuart was really on it," said Cincinnati manager Justin Aaron. "He's got a feel for playing with the hitter front-to-back, side-to-side."

Game 3 is scheduled for Thursday at The Castle in Cincinnati.
