The Auburn Doubledays needed two wins over the Elmira Pioneers in the final week of the regular season to reach the PGCBL postseason.  When the teams met in the playoffs, however, the final score favored Elmira.  Auburn's season ended on Monday in the PGCBL semifinals, with a 4-1 loss to the Pioneers in a one-game playoff to decide which team advanced to the championship series.  This is the second time in three years the D'days' season concluded in the semifinals.  Hovering below .500 for much of the season, Auburn won 11 of its final 14 games to overtake the Niagara Power for the final playoff position in the West Division.
