    In the seventh inning down by a score of 3-0, Charleston combined for four runs from shortstop Kyle Holder, first baseman Kane Sweeney, second baseman Hoy Jun Park and left-fielder Cesar Diaz. Despite the odds not being in their favor with Rome having a 90 percent win expectancy heading into the bottom of the 7th inning, Charleston prevailed in what was arguably the loudest game at “The Joe” this season. Friday marked the first playoff victory in the RiverDogs name. They were swept in their back-to-back post-season appearances in 2004 and 2005. Prior to this year’s RiverDogs squad, the last team to play in Charleston and obtain a playoff victory was the 1988 Charleston Rainbows, who defeated Myrtle Beach 3-1 in the opening round prior to being swept by Spartanburg 3-0 in the 1988 Finals.
