Subject: 1987 World Series, games 1-3

The series is being played online, with Rick F. standing in for Mike T. as Boston manager - thanks, Rick!
 
 
Themes of the game:
===================
Game 1: Rocket has a bad day.
Game 2: NOBODY chokes like the Reds (no matter how hard they try).
Game 3: Everybody hits.
 
 
============================================================
 
 
Game 1: John Farrell vs. Roger Clemens.  Cincy scored in the opening frame and had a 2-1 lead when the roof fell in on Rocket Man in the 5th.  Eric Davis delivered a 2-out, 3-run homer and back-to-back doubles immediately thereafter made the score 6-1 and sent Clemens to the showers.  Farrell allowed a run to Boston in the 8th and the Cincy pen helpfully feebed up a run with 2 outs in the 9th, but Dickie Noles came in and retired Todd Benzinger (representing the tying run) to end the game.  Final score: 6-3.  Boston out-LOBbed the Reds 10-5.
 
 
Game 2: Bob Walk vs. Bruce Hurst.  Walk lived up to his name in the 3rd, erasing his team's 2-0 lead with 3 consecutive Walks, including one with the bases loaded.  Boston took the lead in the 6th when Walk loaded the bases again and John Franco allowed a sac fly.
 
Steve Bedrosian made a strong effort at being the goat for Boston when he let the Reds move in front by the score of 4-3 in the 8th, but the Cincinnati pen simply will not be outchoked.  Not once but twice did CIN relievers pull off a "Perfect Sambito": Rob Murphy coughed up a gopher to the first batter he faced in the 8th (tie game now), and Bill Gullickson served up the game-loser to the first Boston batter in the bottom of the 9th; game over.  Final score: 5-4.  We don't practice this all year for nothing.
 
 
Game 3: Scott Sanderson vs. Danny Jackson.  The teams combined for 30 hits, 17 runs, 23 LOB, and the starters took most of that abuse though the bullpens were shaky as well.  Boston's 2-0 lead vanished in the CIN 2nd when Kal Daniels launched a 2-out Grand Slam that made the score 5-2.
 
Cincy extended the lead to 8-2 before opening the floodgates for Boston's comeback.  However, Boston's pair of runs in the 5th were immediately answered with 2 of our own and the score stood at 10-4 for the moment.
 
Sanderson was long gone, but Jackson made it into the 7th.  He left after allowing hits to the first two batters and reliever Ron Robinson performed a minor miracle by limiting his first batter to a mere double instead of a 3-run gopher.  Robinson would allow 2 more hits in the inning, and Boston had cut the deficit to just 3 runs.
 
Both teams continued to rack up baserunners, but only the LOB numbers increased from that point on.  Final score: 10-7.  Jackson lasted long enough to get the W and Franco tossed 2 scoreless innings to get the save.
 
The Reds are hitting .330 as a team through 3 games, and both sides currently sport very ugly team ERAs as there have been 0 unearned runs so far.
 
Alan
