García, Northern Virginia Open R2 Strong with 8-6 Win
The Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids started the ToC Semi-Finals in style, downing the visiting Toledo Stingers at Atlantica by a score of 8-6 to grab an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-5 series. Rainbow Mermaids shortstop António García went 3 for 3 with a home run, a double, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4.

A key moment came with two out in the bottom of the third. That's when García hit a slider from Puhi Paselio for a 3-run home run, putting Northern Virginia up, 6-0.

"It wasn't our best performance," said García, "but a win in the playoffs is nothing to sniff at."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Atlantica in Hampton.
