Chris Swauger's three homers, including the tie-breaking two run shot in the 10th innings lead the Springfield Cardinals to an 8-6 victory over the Tulsa Drillers in game one of the North Division finals at ONECK Field in Tulsa.
At one point the Drillers led 6-0, before Springfield bats finally came alive in the fifth innings.
The Springfield bullpen was outstanding with Justin Wright, Deryk Hooker, Eric Fornataro and Keith Butler combining to throw six scoreless innings allowing just three base runners.
The Cardinals will continue their best of five series with the Drillers tonight at 7:05.
Seth Maness gets the call for the Cards.
