Thursday, October 4th , 2029
Many baseball pundits expected a close series in the Dominican Rookie League Round 1. It turned out quite a bit different.


The New Jersey (DSL) Pioneers swept aside the St. Louis (DSL) Cardinals to advance to the Round 2, winning the final game by a 8-5 score at Las Américas Complex.

The series MVP was shortstop Matt Swedlove, who hit .389 with a .450 on-base percentage. He had 1 home runs, drove in 4 RBI and scored 2 runs.

"We expected this series to go right down to the wire, so to sweep is a bit of a surprise," he said. "But we'll take it."

The New Jersey (DSL) Pioneers will play against the Pittsburgh (DSL) Pirates in the next round. Pittsburgh (DSL) won their series against the Oakland (DSL) Athletics 4 games to 0. The Round 2 schedule will be announced after the Round 1 finishes.
