Former Cartersville High School and Georgia Southern University pitcher, Sam Howard, and the Asheville Tourists have advanced to the South Atlantic League championship series. Unfortunately, the Tourists find themselves down 2-0 in the series after opening losses in Hickory. The Crawdads won 7-2 in Game 1 and beat Asheville Tuesday night 3-1 in the best-of-five series. The series now moves to Asheville Thursday for Game 3 at McCormick Field. If needed, Game 4 (Friday night) and Game 5 (Saturday night) would also be in Asheville. The Tourists have named rehabbing Rockies' pitcher Tyler Chatwood their Game 3 starter, but it was Chatwood who did not get through the first inning of his first playoff start. Relievers, including Howard's six inning stint, completed that series-deciding Game 3 win over the Savannah Sand Gnats. Howard pitched six innings of scoreless relief and Luis Jean homered to advance the Tourists to their second straight SAL Championships Series with a 2-1 win in Savannah last Saturday. Howard (12-9) was credited with the pitching win and will likely get the nod for one more stint during the SAL Championship Series. He is 8-1 over his past ten appearances with a 2.12 ERA. The 22-year-old left-hander has been on an innings count during the season. He has now worked 140 innings in 26 games in 2015.
