The French Division I Semi-Finals started with a pair of splits. In the first matchup the Montpellier Barracudas downed the Rouen Huskies 4-1 on Saturday behind three runs in the eighth inning. Laurent Andrades had the decisive hit with a two-run single against Rouen’s hurler Owen Ozanich, who took his first loss of the season. Will Musson picked up the win. In game two on Sunday the Huskies prevailed 3-2. They scored two quick runs and added a crucial insurance run in the eighth. Jose Rodriguez and Keino Perez shared the workload on the mound. In the second matchup the Templiers Senart won game one 5-2 against Paris UC, but lost a thriller 11-12 in the second. Games three to potentially fifth follow next weekend.
