  • For Immediate Release Tight Pennant Races in Pioneer League Final Series
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TIGHT PENNANT RACES IN PIONEER LEAGUE FINAL SERIES Boise Game Settled by Knock Out, Missoula Walks-Off, Almond Breaks Home Run Record Spokane, WA – September 2, 2021 All you can really ask out of baseball is a tight pennant race. With only 8 days left in the Pioneer League’s 2021 season there’s not only just one squeaker pennant race, but two - with nail-biters in both the North and South divisions that will define the playoffs scheduled to begin on September 11th. “You couldn’t ask for a better finish to the season than this,” said Pioneer League President Mike Shapiro. “7 of our 8 teams have a very legitimate shot at making the playoffs. If you love baseball, 2021 will go down as one of the best in Pioneer League history.” In the Northern Division, first half winner Missoula is in a dogfight to capture the second half as well with Billings (1 GB), Idaho Falls (3 GB) and Great Falls (4 GB) following closely on their heels. With each club in the division in such close proximity to the lead, the final two series will provide all the drama any fan could hope for. Missoula and Great Falls will face off in Missoula for 6 of their final 9 games while Billings hosts Idaho Falls for 6 as well. They flip it around for the last 3 with Billings going to Missoula and Great Falls traveling to Idaho Falls. Last night, in their first matchup, Missoula and Great Falls kept the score low with the game tied 1-1 going into the 9th.
