SETTING THE SCENE: After yesterday’s contest was postponed due to rain, the Jackals and Colonials open up their best-of-five first round playoff series tonight at Yogi Berra Stadium. All five games of the series will be played in Little Falls with the second-seeded Jackals serving as the home team in games one, two, and five (if necessary). In the other first-round matchup, the top-seeded Quebec Capitales host the Brockton Rox. JACKALS AT A GLANCE: Prior to being swept in a threegame series at Brockton this weekend, the Jackals had won 10 consecutive games. The Jackals (30-16, .652) fell percentage points shy of clinching the second-half title behind Quebec (29-15, .659). PLAYOFF BOUND: After clinching a playoff spot with a doubleheader sweep over Brockton on August 29, the Jackals return to the playoffs for the third straight season. After being swept in the first round by Quebec in 2010 and Worcester in 2009, the Jackals have lost eight straight playoff games dating back to 2007, when they fell in five games to the eventual leaguechampion Nashua Pride after taking a 2-1 series lead. The Jackals went 22-19 in the regular season against the rest of this year’s Can-Am League playoff field. HITTING THEIR STRIDE: The Jackals ranked second in the league with 121 stolen bases, including a league record-tying nine thefts on September 1 vs Newark. Entering 2011, the Jackals’ franchise record for stolen bases in a game was three. Sean Smith swiped four bases in a game twice (8/23 at Newark and 8/31 vs Newark) and Brian Sabatella accomplished the feat once (9/1 vs Newark) this season. The Jackals boast five players with double-digit stolen bases: Smith (49), Sabatella (24), Chris White (23), Myron Leslie (14), and Mike Richard (12). SERIES SUCCESS: The Jackals won seven of their final eight series of the season. Their lone series loss over that stretch was a sweep at the hands of the Brockton Rox to close out the regular season. COLONIAL CONFIDENTIAL: After enjoying the last four days off, The Colonials enter Thursday night’s playoff opener having not taken the field since Saturday night. Pittsfield won six of their final seven games of rhe regular season. The Colonials led the league with 158 stolen bases (37 more than any other team) while infielder Danny Bomback led the circuit in batting (.355). Last season, the Colonials lost to Quebec in the Can-Am League Championship Series.

HEY NOW, YOU’RE AN ALL-STAR: On Tuesday, Jackals’ pitcher Isaac Pavlik and catcher Myron Leslie were named to the Can-Am League’s Postseason All-Star Team. Pavlik finished 13-3 with a 2.73 ERA in 19 starts. The Rutherford native led the league with 112 strikeouts and 131.2 innings pitched and ranked second in wins (13), complete games (5) and shutouts (1) while posting the third-lowest ERA in the circuit (2.73). Leslie finished sixth in the Can-Am League with a career-high .328 batting average while clubbing nine homers and driving in 54 runs. SECOND CHANCE: The Jackals won 30 second-half games this year for just the second time in the team’s 14-year existence. The franchise record for secondhalf wins is 32, set in 2002 when New Jersey went on to win the Northern League title. Entering 2011, the Jackals had performed better in the first half than in the second half five of the past six seasons. THIS DATE IN JACKALS HISTORY: On September 8, 2002, the Jackals won the fifth and deciding game of their first-round series, winning in Elmira, 6-0. Joel Bennett fired eight shutout innings to earn the win. ALUMNI UPDATE: Southpaw Raul Valdes was recalled by the New York Yankees from Double-A Trenton on September 1. Valdes was claimed off waivers by the Yankees from the St. Louis Cardinals on August 16.

NEW JERSEY’S LAST CONTEST JACKALS BULLPEN SHINES, BUT BROCKTON SWEEPS SERIES TO CLINCH PLAYOFF SPOT - Sunday, September 4 recap Brockton, Mass. – On the final day of the regular season, the New Jersey Jackals stranded a season-high 16 runners on base as the Brockton Rox came away with a 6-2 victory to sweep the three-game series and clinch a playoff spot on Sunday afternoon at Campanelli Stadium. New Jersey’s bullpen was dominant in the loss with Josh Ellis, Jeff Gogal, Steve Fox, and Kyle Gunderson combining to fire 4 2/3 scoreless innings. Freddy Flores, who was named Brockton’s starting pitcher just before the contest, picked up his first win since August 5. The 37-year-old veteran righthander came off the disabled list and allowed two runs on six hits over five innings, striking out six batters and walking a pair.

WHAT A RELIEF: New Jersey relievers successfully converted 23 of 26 (88%) save opportunities this season. Last year, the Jackals converted just 22 of 29 save chances (75.8%). Five different Jackals’ relievers saved games during the 2011 regular season. Kyle Gunderson has retired 25 of the first 26 batters he’s faced in his first seven games with New Jersey. Jared Locke has picked up wins in four of his last five appearances. Steve Fox turned in six straight scoreless outings (7.2 innings) to finish the regular season. MOVIN’ ON UP: During an eight-day stretch from July 25 through August 2, the Jackals sold three players to affiliated organizations. On July 25, outfielder Leonard Davis (.317-9-36 w/ a league-leading 18 doubles in 52 games) had his contract purchased by the Washington Nationals and was sent to Double-A Harrisburg. On August 31, second baseman and leadoff hitter Argenis Reyes (.306-2-29 w/ 12 steals in 60 games) was sold to Cleveland and assigned to Triple-A Columbus. On August 2, three-time Can-Am League Pitcher of the Week and July Pitcher of the Month James Leverton (8-4, 2.38 ERA in 13 starts) was sold to the Florida Marlins and assigned to the Single-A Greensboro Grasshoppers. The Jackals have sold 25 players to affiliated organizations since 2006. WE’RE GOING STREAKING: The Jackals powered into the playoffs behind the strength of a season-long 10-game winning streak from August 23 through September 1. That streak matched the longest winning streak by any Can-Am League team this season (Quebec won 10 straight games from June 9-18). STARTING STRONG: New Jersey starting pitchers allowed three earned runs or less during a stretch of 18 consecutive games heading into the Jackals’ final regularseason series over Labor Day weekend, when the team was swept at Brockton. RACING THE CLOCK: The roster deadline for the Can-Am League was 11:59 pm ET on Friday, August 26. Players under control at that time are those eligible for the playoffs. Players may be moved on and off the disabled list during the final ten days provided disabled player list requirements are maintained. CLINCHING THE CUP: By virtue of their 9-3 record in the season series against the Newark Bears, the Jackals clinched the Essex County Executive’s Cup. The challenge was established by Essex County Executive Joseph N. DiVincenzo, Jr. in October upon the Bears’ announcement that they were leaving the Atlantic League to join the Can-Am League. Yogi Berra Stadium, the home of the Jackals, and Bears and Eagles Riverfront Stadium, the home of the Bears, are separated by just 12 miles, making New Jersey and Newark the closest rivals in professional baseball.

Making a spot start in place of A.J. Wideman, who will start game two of the playoffs, Kearny native Jairo Mendez allowed the first two batters of the game to come around and score before settling down and retiring nine of the next 10 Brockton hitters he faced. The Rox opened the scoring in the bottom of the first inning when Chris Valencia led off with a single and scored on an RBI triple off the right field wall by Mike Torres. A Keith Brachold sacrifice fly gave the Rox a 2-0 lead at the end of the first.

FLAIR FOR THE DRAMATIC: The Jackals used a pair of extra-inning, walk-off wins to sweep a doubleheader from Brockton on August 26. The Jackals emerged victorious in game one, 5-4, thanks to a pinch-hit RBI single by Kris Sanchez in the bottom of the eighth. New Jersey took the nightcap, 3-2, when Sandy Madera launched a two-out, two-strike, eighth-inning home run off the batters’ eye in his third game back with the team. Prior to the doubleheader, the Jackals had posted just one walk-off victory in their first 45 home games.

New Jersey broke through against Flores in the top of the second. After Chris Anderson lined a one-out single and Jordan Newton reached on an error by Brockton third baseman Phillip Cuadrado, shortstop Mike Richard singled Anderson home to cut the Jackals’ deficit to 2-1. Brockton put the game out of reach in the bottom of the fourth, plating four runs to chase Mendez from the game and open up a 6-1 advantage thanks to RBI singles by Shaun Williams, Dominic Ramos, Chris Grossman, and Valencia.

POWER SURGE: The Jackals tied a franchise record when they launched five home runs in a 10-4 win at Rockland on June 19. Mike Jones and Jeremy Slayden each homered twice while Leonard Davis also left the yard. Twice before in franchise history had the Jackals tallied five home runs in one game: July 18, 1998 at Adirondack and July 28, 1999 at Massachusetts. New Jersey homered 10 times in the three-game series at Provident Bank Park.

The Jackals capped the scoring in the fifth inning when Bryan Sabatella walked and later came around to score on an RBI single off the bat of D’Angelo Jimenez. The Jackals threatened in the top of the ninth, loading the bases with two outs to bring the tying run up to bat, but’ Brockton closer Jake Hale induced a game-ending fielders’ choice off the bat of Richard to help the Rox clinch a playoff berth. In the loss, Anderson contributed his first three-hit game of the season, finishing 3-for-4 with a run scored while stealing his first base of the year. Sandy Madera and Jordan Newton each finished with two hits for the Jackals as starting catcher Myron Leslie and third baseman Nick Giarraputo got the day off. Mendez, a 27-year-old right-hander out of Montclair State University, surrendered six runs on seven hits over 3 1/3 innings of work in his first professional outing since June 22, 2010. JACKAL BITES: New Jersey finishes the season 8-5 against Brockton… The Jackals, who entered the three-game series on a 10-game winning streak, were swept for the first time this season… New Jersey left a season-high 16 runners on base including 10 in scoring position. The Jackals stranded multiple runners on base in seven different innings... A leadoff single by Melvin Falu in the eighth inning ended Kyle Gunderson’s string of 22 consecutive batters retired to begin his tenure with the Jackals.

FOLLOW THE LEADER: When the Augusta, N.J.-based Sussex Skyhawks announced they would not be operating in 2011 this past winter, several former Skyhawks made their way to the New Jersey Jackals. Ed Ott, who managed the Skyhawks in 2010, returned to the Jackals, where he served as a coach from 2007-09. Players migrating from Augusta to Little Falls include reliever Jared Locke, and infielders Kris Sanchez and Nick Giarraputo. The Skyhawks were owned by Floyd Hall Enterprises, which also owns the Jackals. OPENING ACT: After their 8-4 win at Pittsfield on Thursday, May 26, New Jersey is 11-3 (.786) all-time on opening day. The Jackals have now won their season opener nine times in the past 10 seasons, with the lone loss during that span coming last year. The Jackals also won their fourth straight home opener on May 31 when they downed Newark 7-6. SPRING FLING: In addition to Oakland A’s reliever Craig Breslow (with New Jersey in 2004), who is currently in his sixth major league season, several former Jackals appeared in major league spring training games. 6-foot-7 right-hander Stuart Pomeranz (2009) posted a 3.86 ERA in three relief appearances for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Southpaw Raul Valdes (2006) appeared in seven games (one start) for the St. Louis Cardinals. First baseman John Lindsey (2005-06) went 1-for-4 for the Dodgers. Righty Jon Hunton (2007) made one relief appearances for the A’s.

Three-year career with New Jersey (regular season): 21-8, 3.11 ERA, 39 starts, 234.1 innings, 224 hits, 150 strikeouts, 25 walks Was scheduled to start New Jersey’s season finale at Brockton on Sunday 9/4, but Jairo Mendez made a spot start to set Wideman up to pitch game two of the playoffs. In two career playoff starts with New Jersey, Wideman is 0-2 with a 10.24 ERA (11 earned runs in 9.2 innings). In 2009, he surrendered five runs in 5.2 innings against Worcester. In 2010, he surrendered six runs in four innings against Quebec.

SEVENTH HEAVEN: Wideman finished the regular season having won his last seven consecutive starts, posting a 1.01 ERA over that span. The only other Can-Am League pitcher to win seven straight starts this season was Quebec’s John Mariotti (June 14 through July 28), who Wideman trains with during the offseason. AUGUST PITCHER OF THE MONTH: Wideman was named August Can-Am League Pitcher of the Month after going 6-0 with a 1.15 ERA in six starts. The southpaw allowed just five earned runs and 26 hits in 39 innings, walking 11 batters while striking out 21. Wideman, who was also named league Pitcher of the Month in June and July 2009, is the only hurler in Can-Am League history to win the award more than once. In three seasons with New Jersey, Wideman is 8-1 in the month of August. EARLY-SEASON INJURIES: Wideman was hampered by a groin injury most of the first half of the season. After beginning the season on the inactive list, he made two starts but was released on June 7. Wideman re-signed with the Jackals on June 20 and made two more starts before being released again on July 2. He re-signed for the second time this season on August 1 and started that night, marking his first appearance in 35 days. CAREER HIGHLIGHTS: Was New Jersey’s opening-day starter in 2010, but was limited to just 11 starts due to injury... In 2009, was named Can-Am League Pitcher of the Year after leading the league in wins (10-1) and ERA (2.51) and finishing second with 81 strikeouts while taking home league Pitcher of the Month honors in June and July... That season, held left-handed hitters to a .161 average while righties batted .244... In 2007, led all Toronto farmhands with 11 wins... Was traded from the Washington Nationals to the Toronto Blue Jays in 2005 in exchange for outfielder Tyrell Godwin... Pitched for Team Canada at the 2005 Baseball Senior World Cup and the 2008 Final Olympic Qualification Tournament... In 2004, would have trailed only Anibal Sanchez in ERA in the New York-Penn League had he had enough innings to qualify... Younger brother, Jordan, is a catcher in the Cincinnati Reds system.

The Jackals have won eight of 10 games Moore has appeared in. Signed with New Jersey on July 19.

RING ‘EM UP: Moore tied a career high with nine strikeouts on August 5 at Pittsfield. Moore also fanned nine batters with Traverse City on 9/4/10 vs. Washington. WINNING WAYS: Moore notched three wins in his first four appearances with New Jersey. He earned the win in his Jackals’ debut on July 20 vs Rockland, allowing one run over two innings of relief before New Jersey rallied for 10 runs in the eighth inning to erase a 10-1 deficit. Through August 23, Moore is 16-8 in his career. LAKE EFFECT: Moore began the 2011 season with the North American League’s Lake County Fielders (Zion, Ill.,), but was granted free agency on July 13 after Lake County reportedly missed payroll, released 14 players, and traded nine others. Manager Tim Johnson and interim coach Pete LaCock were let go as well. With Lake County, Moore was 2-2 with a 3.48 ERA in seven games (five starts), allowing 28 hits in 31 innings while walking 18 batters, striking out 16, and holding opponents to a .200 average. The North American League is a combination of the former Northern, United, and Golden leagues and its footprint stretches from Edmonton to Hawaii to Texas to Illinois. CAREER NOTES (PRIOR TO 2011): In 2010, went 9-6 with a 3.28 ERA in 18 starts for the Traverse City Beach Bums in the Frontier League, allowing just 85 hits in 98.2 innings with 56 strikeouts and 48 walks...

TODAY IN BASEBALL HISTORY 1939 - Twenty-year-old Bob Feller becomes the youngest 20th-century pitcher to win twenty games, as Cleveland beats St. Louis 12-1. 1965 - Bert Campaneris of the Kansas City A’s played all nine positions before having to leave after a ninth-inning collision with Ed Kirkpatrick of the Angels. The Angels won, 5-3, in 13 innings. 1995 - Cleveland ends a postseason drought of forty-one years by clinching the American League Central Division with a 3-2 win over the Orioles. 1998 - Mark McGwire broke Roger Maris’ thirty-seven year-old home run record, lining historic No. 62 just over the wall in left field with two out in the fourth inning. McGwire’s homer off the Chicago Cubs’ Steve Trachsel set off a wild celebration in Busch Stadium.
