Saguaros Prevail, as Wild Card Series Goes to the Wire
The Mesa Saguaros and Surprise Sidewinders put on a classic Wild Card Series that was in question until the final game.

In the end, Mesa won the deciding contest by a score of 6-3, to take the series 3-2.

"It doesn't get much tighter than that. To win a series in the last game is a thrill," said Braden Sampson, who earned series MVP honors for Mesa. "Our guys are breathing a little easier now."

For the series, Sampson hit .462 with a .462 on-base percentage. He had 2 home runs, drove in 8 RBI and scored 4 runs.

The Divisional Series matchups and schedule will be announced after the Wild Card Series finishes.
