The Rochester Redbirds bested the powerhouse San Antonio Padres, winning the series in 5.
San Antonio took game 1 to extra innings, where Shohei Ohtani hit a game-winning 3-run bomb to seal the victory.
However, Ohtani's dramatics didn't translate to the mound the next night, where he got sent to an early exit after recording just 5 outs.
With the series tied at 1-1, games 3 and 4 saw both teams lean heavily on their bullpens in tightly contested 2-run affairs. Finally, in game 5 the Redbirds got to Sandy Alcantara early, signaling the end of a series that saw the teams' power-packed offenses combine for 20 HRs.
