Subject: 1988 World Series, game 1 and 2

In a series being played online, the Reds & A's have split two well-pitched games in Riverfront Stadium and after a day of rest move to Oakland for games 3 through 5.
 
 
Game 1: Jose Rijo vs. Mike Moore.  Rijo was not in peak form, allowing 2 runs in 8 innings (4 hits, 1 BB, 10 K) but he offset both of those runs with his own 2-run homer off of Eric Plunk that contributed heavily to Cincy's 3-2 win.
 
After Oakland took a 1-0 lead in the 3rd on a double, sac bunt and groundout, Von Hayes answered immediately with a home run off OAA starter Mike Moore.
 
Plunk replaced Moore in the 5th but ran into trouble in the Cincy 6th.  Jeff Reed opened with a walk and (dangerous basestealer that he is) was balked to second and then balked to third.  Reed was erased on a fielders choice but Rijo then came through with his big hit.
 
Pinch-hitter Terry Francona homered off Rijo in the 8th to make the score 3-2 and Rob Dibble retired the A's in order in the 9th to save the victory.  The Reds outhit Oakland 10-4 and out-LOBbed them 11-3 but eked out the win anyway.  The numbers would be quite similar in game 2, but the result would be different -- thanks to absolute zero clutch hitting by the Reds and one very costly baserunning blunder....
 
========================================
 
Game 2: Tim Belcher vs. Bob Welch.  Mark McGwire led off the Oakland 3rd with a home run, and Dion James' clutch single combined with Paul O'Neill's throwing error in the 5th to give the visitors a 2-0 lead.
 
Welch was more wild than hittable; Welch walked 6 but allowed just 3 hits in 5.2 innings of work.  The Reds had a golden opportunity go for nothing in the 5th when John Kruk was picked off (continuing a trend of Cincy baserunning futility) after which we proceeded to load the bases and score nothing.
 
It almost happened again in the 6th: Welch walked the first three batters of the inning, but the next 3 batters made outs and just 1 run crossed the plate.  Eck relieved Welch and fanned Nick Esasky to terminate that threat.
 
Cincy came back for more in the 7th: 1st & 3rd with 1 out -- no runs.  In the 9th we had 1st & 3rd with NO outs -- and got just another goose egg.
 
Final score: 2-1.  Final LOB count: CIN - 13, OAA - 6.
 
The series is scheduled to resume in a few hours with Tim Leary and Dave Stewart the probable starters for game 3.
 
Alan
