Modoc’s strong regular season didn’t translate into postseason success, as the Braves fell to Quincy 8-4 on Friday in a playoff matchup.
Modoc had edged out Quincy 4-3 in their previous meeting earlier this season, but the Trojans turned the tables when it counted most. The Braves have struggled down the stretch, dropping three of their last four games and closing the season with a 15-9 record.
Meanwhile, Quincy continued its hot streak, picking up its seventh consecutive win to improve to 15-7.
Modoc has no further games scheduled. Quincy will face Mt. Shasta at 4 p.m. Tuesday. The Trojans will have to contend with a red-hot Bears lineup that has scored at least 10 runs in each of its last three games.
