(Looks like my ex-girlfriend! Yowzas!!)Keither auto-played Goldy's team yesterday so we could finish up the regular season and begin the playoffs. Here is a short recap of what happened.
Spencer played his entire bench in the starting lineup, with a few starters. Andres Torres did play so he didn't cheap his way to a batting title.
Game 1 Mike Pelfry @ Derek Lowe
Ryan Braun's RBI single in the 7th won the game for Spencer. Spencer wins 4-3
W - Lowe 7.0, 7H, 4W, 3ER, 3K
L - Razor Ramon Ramirez - 1.0, 2H, W, 1ER
S - Heath Bell - 1.0, H, 2K
HR - Juan Uribe
Game 2 Timmy Hudson @ Josh Johnson
Spencer dominated the game until the 9th inning, when Gold Keither scored 5 runs off of Hisanori Takahashi to tie the game at 9-9. Ryan The Riot's RBI single in the 11th won the game for Spencer. Spencer wins 10-9 in 11 innings **Josh Johnson struckout 9 batters to up his PTP record setting SO total to 83 on the year in 8 starts.
W - Tim Stauffer - 2.0, 2H, 2K
L - J.A. Happ (Jap) - 0.1, W, H, ER
HR - Steve Drew, Hunter Pence (underpants), Al Pujols
Game 3 Cole Hamels @ Christoph Carpenter
Derrek Lee's second HR of the game in the bottom of the 9th won it for Spencer. Spencer scores three runs on three solo jacks. Spencer wins 3-2
W - Carpenter CG, 9H, 2ER, 5W, 8K
L - Razor Ramon Ramirez 0.0, H, ER, HR
HR - Derrek Lee (2), I-Rod
Keither played his balls off and every game came down to the wire. Glad to see my bench players step up with the regular playing time. Spencer's team is HOT HOT HOT heading into the playoff showdown with border rival Torto.
Hot finish to the NL season Rock. By my count you ended the year 8-1. We'll see if its a blessing or a curse in the postseason....
ReplyDeleteKeith - I thought we talked about you rolling nothing but 500s so that Josh Johnson would be injured/suspended. Thanks for nothing. Kidding of course!
ReplyDeleteLooks like we should have both teams at full strength, and that's the way it should be for this highly anticipated playoff matchup.
Go Marlins!
