Charleston Takes Semifinals in Deciding Game
Appalachian League fans were certainly not disappointed with this Appalachian League Semifinals.

The two teams were evenly matched and the series went to the final game, with the Charleston Loggers prevailing over the Danville Braves to advance to the Championship Series.

Charleston won the final game by a score of 8-6 at Chase Field and that sealed the series 3-2.

"Things were tense in our clubhouse and dugout before and during this game, but we can let loose a bit now -- the hard work is over, for now," said third baseman Mike Willey, who earned MVP honors.

For the series, Willey hit .625 with a .654 on-base percentage. He had 1 home runs, 4 RBI and scored 6 runs.

The Charleston Loggers don't know who they will face in the next round. They will play the winner of the Boone Burners - Johnson City Fossils series. That series is tied at 2 games apiece. The Championship Series schedule will be announced after the Semifinals finishes.
