Buchanan Excels, Lancaster Wins Round 1 Game 1
The Lancaster JetHawks started the Round 1 in style, downing the visiting Inland Empire 66ers at The Hanger by a score of 8-6 to grab an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-5 series. JetHawks first baseman Brad Buchanan went 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2.

The game was at a stalemate until pinch hitter Johnny Givens came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Inland Empire pitcher Shawn Rice, he hit a 1-2 fastball for a 2-run home run. It was a game-changer, putting Lancaster on top, 8-6.

"It feels good to get this one," Givens told the Lancaster Chronicle.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at The Hanger in Lancaster.
