Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks News Release
SIOUX CITY, IOWA - Fargo-Moorhead scored a run on a wild pitch in the eighth inning Thursday to take a 2-1 win over the Sioux City Explorers in Game 1 of the West Division Series.
Orlando Rodriguez, Davis Feldman, Parker Harm and Alex DuBord combined to allow only three Sioux City hits - including none over the final 4.2 innings.

After John Nogowski hit a solo home run in the first inning to give Sioux City the early lead, the RedHawks answered with a Juan Fernandez sacrifice fly in the fifth to tie things up.
In the eighth, Ismael Alcantara stole second and forced a throwing error to advance to third. He came in to score on a two-out, two-strike wild pitch from Explorers pitcher Zach Willeman to take a 2-1 lead.
Alex DuBord came on in the ninth and struck out three batters to earn the save.
The RedHawks will return to Newman Outdoor Field on Friday for Game 2 of the best-of-three series. First pitch is slated for 6:30 p.m.
