The American Legion youth baseball State Playoffs got underway yesterday and the Medford Mustangs, the reigning 5-time defending State Champions, find themselves in a must-win situation today at 1pm in Corvallis against the Gerding Builders Marketmen.

Corvallis blanked Medford 3-zip last night to win game-1 of the best-of-3 Super Regional Playoff series. The Mustangs, 27-22, must win 2-games today to advance to the State Tournament that opens in Klamath Falls Saturday. 

Elsewhere in the Super Regionals playoff series, Roseburg lost 3-2 at Hillsboro, Salem edged Lakeridge, 6-5, and Willamette Valley-Springfield got by Newport, 4-1. The Super Regional playoffs in those matchups continues today, as well.
