Travelers Heading to Round 2
Thursday, September 26th , 2024
The Round 1 went the distance before it all was said and done.
The Arkansas Travelers and the Tulsa Drillers went at it tooth-and-nail and when it was over at ONEOK Field, the winner was the Travelers.
They put away Tulsa 7-4 to cinch the series and won the right to move onto the Round 2.
For his fine play, even in a losing effort, Tulsa shortstop Casey Schmitt was given the series Most Valuable Player Award. He hit .429, scored 6 runs and batted in 6 to win the honor.
"It's nice that someone noticed my numbers, but I'd trade it in a heartbeat for a win," he said.
The Arkansas Travelers will play against the San Antonio Missions in the next round. San Antonio won their series against the Corpus Christi Hooks 3 games to 2. The Round 2 schedule will be announced after the Round 1 finishes.
