Canaries' Dominant Victory
Sioux Falls Canaries defeat RedHawks 13-4 after explosive 7-run third inning surge.
The Sioux Falls Canaries battered the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks 13-4 on Sunday, winning game three of their four-game series. The victory tightens the standings, leaving Fargo-Moorhead just a half-game above Sioux Falls in the West division, according to KFGO.
The RedHawks could not contain a Canaries offense that erupted for 12 of its 13 runs in just two innings. The final game of the series is set for Monday night.
Seven-Run Third Inning Breaks Game Open
The Canaries put the game away early. They scored seven runs in the third inning alone, according to Y94. That burst gave Sioux Falls a lead it never gave back. The RedHawks had no answer for the offensive surge.
Fargo-Moorhead gave up 12 of the 13 runs it allowed in just two innings, per Jack FM Fargo. That kind of damage in such a short stretch made a comeback nearly impossible for the home side.
West Division Race Tightens After RedHawks Drop Third Straight
The loss hurts Fargo-Moorhead's standing. The RedHawks now hold just a half-game lead over the Canaries in the West, according to 740 The Fan. A few days ago, that gap was more comfortable. Sioux Falls has now closed the distance with this series win.
The Canaries have put real pressure on Fargo-Moorhead heading into Monday's finale. A win in the series finale could shift the standings further, making the final game a must-watch for both fan bases.

Sioux Falls will try to carry its offensive momentum into the finale. After back-to-back dominant innings, the Canaries look like the hotter team heading into the deciding game of the series.
