The minor league playoffs continued on Saturday, with the Double-A Midland RockHounds winning their second of three do-or-die road games in the best-of-5 Texas League Championship Series. They opened the series by falling into an 0-2 hole in their two home dates, but they took Game 3 in Tulsa on Friday to keep their postseason alive. After another victory tonight they’ve now evened the standings, sending us to a winner-take-all Game 5 on Sunday. At stake for Midland is a fourth straight league title.
