IronPigs on to Championship
While it wasn't a complete mismatch, the Lehigh Valley IronPigs showed themselves to be the superior team in the Round 1, downing the Gwinnett Stripers 3-1.

"Nothing is ever easy in the International League playoffs. Whether you're a favorite or an underdog, you can't take anyone lightly or you'll get burned," said Charles Tilson, who was named series MVP after a standout offensive performance.

Lehigh Valley won the final game by a 2-1 count at Coca-Cola Park to clinch its spot in the next round.

They will hope to once again rely on Tilson there, as he hit .400 with 0 home runs, 1 RBI 3 runs scored during the series.

The Lehigh Valley IronPigs don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the Norfolk Tides - Louisville Bats series. Louisville leads the series 2 games to 1. The Championship schedule will be announced after the Round 1 finishes.
