The Ramblers equaled last season's franchise best 14-1 start on Friday by advancing to the championship of the Bellevue Tournament with a 8-5 victory over Farley. Key West is now 9-1 versus Farley in the teams' last 10 meetings dating back to last season.
Right-hander Andrew Redman improved to 3-0 on the season by going six strong innings, allowing three runs. Ryan Kelly relieved Redman in the seventh inning, getting the last three outs to end the Farley threat.
Spencer Kuehn (2-for-2) and Dan Spain (2-for-4) notched two hits apiece for the victors. Kuehn connected for his first home run this season and first in his career as a Rambler. Scott Harris (2-for-3) and Andy Seabrooke (2-for-4) starred at the plate for Farley, which cruised to an 11-3 win over Dubuque in the quarterfinal round.
Key West will look for its first ever championship at the Bellevue Tournament when it takes the field in the title game at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday. Hometown Bellevue, which pasted Epworth 13-2 in Friday's other semifinal, will serve as the opponent.
