The second-seeded Senators earned an 8-2 win over the No. 3 Kalispell Lakers. Helena (36-15) played the second-round game at two ballparks, used two pitchers and ended the scoring with a two-run home run. Not quite what former MLB star Banks meant when he proclaimed, “Let’s Play Two,” but it was a positive number for the Senators on Thursday.
Thursday’s game began at 4 p.m. under sunny skies at Dehler Park. The Senators trailed 2-1 going into the bottom of the fourth inning, where they scored twice to take a one-run lead.
