Boston Represents AL In World Series!

 Game 1

BOS 5 9 1

KCR 1 7 0

WP - Clemens (1-0)

LP - Saberhagen (0-1)

HR - Burks (1)

Boston jumped on Sabs early, with an Ellis Burks lead off HR in the 2nd inning.  RBI singles by Esasky and Burks gave the Sox a 3-0 in the 3rd.  in the bottom of the 3rd, Willie Wilson singled, stole second, went to 3rd on the Boggs error, and scored on a Brett sac fly.  In the top of the 4th, with two on, Dwight Evans lined a 2B off the wall in RC to score both runners.  And that was it for scoring in this one as Clemens and Dennis Lamp shut the Royals down the rest of the way.

 

Game 2

BOS 3 9 0

KCR 4 9 0

WP - Gubicza (1-0)   Sv - Montgomery (1)

LP - Dopson (0-1)

HR - Evans (1)

Boston got the scoring going in the first on a lead off walk to Boggs and an Evans 2-run HR down the LF line.  Danny Heep's sac fly in the 3rd gave the Sox another run.  RBI singles in the bottom of the 3rd by Brett and Bo Jackson put the Royals on the board.  In the bottom of the 4th, with runners on 2nd and 3rd, Frank White knocked them both in with a single to RC.  That is where the scoring stopped as Gubicza pitched 8 before turning it over to Montgomery for a 9 pitch save.

 

Game 3

KCR 0   8 1

BOS 6 15 0

WP - Boddicker (1-0)

LP - Aquino (0-1)

HRs - Rivera (1), Burks (2)

Mike Boddicker chose the ALCS to pitch his best game of the season.  He pitched 8 shutout innings, allowing only 6 hits with 2 walks and 6 K's.  Light hitting Luis Rivera opened the scoring for Boston when he led off the bottom of the 3rd with a solo HR to LC.  Later in the 3rd, Burks scored Greenwell and Evans with a 2B off The Monster.  Burks did it again the 5th, chasing Aquino out of the game with a 3 run shot to LC.

 

Game 4

KCR  2   6 0

BOS  4 10 0

WP - Lamp (1-0)  Sv - Smith (1)

LP - Luecken (0-1)

HR - Stillwell (1)

Starting pitchers Tom Gordon and Oil Can Boyd did not figure in the decision in this one.  Boston once again opened the scoring on a Rivera walked and Boggs double in the 3rd.  In the 4th, with Jackson on first, Stillwell sliced a 319 foot fly ball to right that found the stands and put KC up 2-1. Boston tied it up in the 5th on a Heep RBI double and took the lead in the 6th on an Evans RBI double.  Boston scored and insurance run in the 8th on Evans' single up the middle, bringing in Rich Gedman from 3rd.

 

Game 5

KCR  2 6 0

BOS  1 5 1

WP - Saberhagen (1-1)   Sv - Farr (1)

LP - Clemens (1-1)

HR - Evans (2)

Sabs and Clemens hook up in a classic pitcher's duel in Game 5.  KC got to the Rocket first, on a Brett sac fly in the 3rd.  But Evans evened it up in the bottom half, taking an 0-2 pitch into the net in left to tie it up.  KC regained the lead in the 6th on a run scoring fielder's choice by Stillwell.  And that was all of the scoring in this one.

Saberhagen pitched 8 solid innings, allowing the one run on the Evans HR, while allowing 5 hits and 4 walks, along with 9 K's to get the win.  Clemens pitched into the 8th before tiring.  He allowed the 2 runs on 6 hits, 3 walks and 4 K's.  Hoping the wrap up the series at home, the Sox packed their bags and headed back to KC. 

 

Game 6

BOS 3 6 3

KCR 2 5 0

WP - Smithson (1-0)  Sv - Murphy (1)

LP - Gubicza (1-1)

HR - Esasky (1)

Game 6 saw surprise starter Mike Smithson take the hill for Boston against Game 2 winner Mark Gubicza.  In the top of the 4th, after a 24 minute rain delay, Jody Reed lined a 2B to RC, scoring Burks from 3rd and putting Boston on the board.  In the 5th, Nick Esasky cranked a 2-Run HR to RF to put the Sox up 3-0.  Jim Eisenreich double in Bob Boone in the 7th to start KC's scoring.  In the bottom of the 9th, a single and 2 walks of Lee Smith loaded them up with one out.  Rob Murphy took over and got Frank White to ground out to 3rd, scoring their 2nd run but leaving them with 2 out.  Murphy struck out Wilson to end the game.

 

While Evans and Burks led the Boston offense, each with 2 HR and 7 RBI, the MVP for this series are the Boston pitchers.  They held a potent KC lineup to this slash line - .216/.278/.268/.546.

 

Great season for John's Royals.  While we did not get to play H2H it was fun communicating with him as we passed the files back and forth.
