ABL playoff matchups set

A 5-1 win by the Mat-Su Miners over the Anchorage Bucs Sunday set the Alaska Baseball League postseason matchups in order.

The Peninsula Oilers, who ended their regular season Saturday at home, already had secured the third seed with a 23-21 record, and will go on the road to face the No. 2 Bucs in a best-of-three game series starting Wednesday. The Bucs won the regular season series 6 to 5 over the Oilers.
