With one swing of the bat, the Scrappers keep their season - and title dreams - alive.
Chun Chen's solo home run in the bottom of the 11th inning lifted Mahoning Valley to a 3-2 win over the Staten Island Yankees in Game 2 of the New York Penn League Championship Series Tuesday at Eastwood Field. The winner-take-all Game 3 will be in Niles Wednesday night at 7:05.
Chen's blast was his first of the playoffs. Casey Frawley and Argenis Martinez drove in runs in the bottom of the 5th to tie the game at two.
Cory Burns picked up the win with 3 1/3 innings of scoreless relief, allowing only a single hit with four strike outs.
The Scrappers are seeking their second NYPL title, the first coming in 2004.
