With DOOR NEPTUNUS waiting in the Holland Series, L&D AMSTERDAM and KONICA MINOLTA PIONIERS battle for the second spot in the championship series of the Dutch Hoofdklasse. After losing game one 3-11, the PIONIERS came back and took the lead in the best-of-five series with wins in games two and three. On Saturday they will be at home in Hoofddorp, trying to eliminate the defending champion PIRATES. It should be an exciting match with Adam Blackley (AMS) and Ryan Murphy (PIO) going toe to toe on the mound. Game five would be on Sunday back in Amsterdam.
