Road Win Lifts Indianapolis to 3-0 Lead in R1
The Indianapolis Ambition are one game away from a sweep of the Antioch Coal Miners after a road win at The Coal Mine, 8-5. Ambition left-hander Will Witten had a strong outing. He threw 8.1 innings allowing 5 runs. Indianapolis now holds a 3-0 advantage in the best-of-7 Triple A League Championship.

Indianapolis used a well-timed hit by Eli Neff to capture the win. The second baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Ambition ahead, 4-2. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"We came out aggressive," said Ambition manager Zi-jun Gou. "We came out swinging the bats."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at The Coal Mine in Antioch.
