Championship Series Game 3

HISTORY: The first inning of Game 3 is underway. With the series tied 1-1, it is a pivotal game, but not as much of a determining factor as you might think.
The only other time in Atlantic League history time that there was a situation like this , in 2003, the Patriots and Nashua Pride split the first two games and the Pride won Game 3. The Patriots rebounded with two road victories to capture the title.
Interestingly, six of the first nine Atlantic League Championship Series ended in three-game sweeps. This is the first since that 2003 series that there will be a Game 4.
The Patriots now have been involved in three of the four non-sweeps. The only other one extended series was the Atlantic City Surf's four-game victory over the Bridgeport Bluefish in the league's inaugural 1998 season.
