One Spot Remaining
Front Royal 5, Winchester 1
Front Royal virtually clinches the No. 1 seed by virtue of its victory in Winchester. With a win tomorrow at New Market, the Cardinals will host the league's eighth seed (most likely Covington) beginning on Sunday.
The loss was costly for the Royals - they fall to at least the No. 5 spot behind Woodstock and will travel to either the No. 4 River Bandits or to No. 3 Luray on Sunday.
Matt Bowling earned the win on the mound for Front Royal.

League note on Staunton and Rockbridge:
Due to the extension of the regular season caused by rainouts and previously booked travel plans by Rockbridge players, the two games postponed from earlier this week between the Rapids and Braves will not be rescheduled.
Per NCAA rules, these games will be considered ‘no contests' and neither team's record will change. Rockbridge ends its first season with a 9-33 mark while Staunton completes the regular season at 27-15.
The league will use winning percentage to determine playoff seed.
