Blue Pirates Hammered by Frank, Drop Game 4 to Athletics
The New Jersey Athletics knotted up the Wildcard Series at Johnson & Johnson Field today, thanks in large part to designated hitter Phil Frank. Frank went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2 as he overpowered the Ontario Blue Pirates, enabling New Jersey to grab the 6-3 win and move into a 2-2 tie in the best-of-7 series.

In the bottom of the first, Frank had one of his most important at-bats: a 2-run home run off Chad DeMarse that staked the Athletics to a 2-0 lead.

"Every team in baseball loses," Blue Pirates manager said. "We're in the playoffs and we still have the same guys that got us here. We'll bounce back."

Game 5 is scheduled for Thursday at Farmers Market Stadium in Markham.
