April 1969 - Recap

MLB
The Orioles and Mets have risen to the top so far as each team has won 7 of their 8 games and sit at the top of the standings.

The Yankees started the season losing 2 of their first three as the lost at home to the Giants and on the road to the Phillies but they have won their last 5 games to lead to a 6-2 record, including an 11-2 victory at Baltimore giving the Orioles their only loss of the season.

The A's, Tigers and Twins are all in the hunt for the playoff race as they all sit at 5-3.

On the other end of the spectrum. The Angels are at the bottom with a 1-7 record and are in the relegation zone. The Angels did win their last game, after starting 0-7, as they blanked the Cardinals 5-0.

Just ahead of them are the White Sox and the Red Sox, both sitting at 2-6.

The current breakout star has been first baseman Bob Robertson of the Orioles. He leads the league in hitting (.556), slugging (1.028), WAR (1.3), hits (20), home runs (4), RBI (13) and runs scored (17).

The Orioles have a frightening offense as they also have Bobby Bonds (.485 avg, .818 slg, 0.9 WAR, 16 hits, 3 HR, 9 RBI, 11 R, 2 SB) and Johnny Bench (.848 slg, 1.0 WAR, 15 H, 4 2B, 3 HR, 12 RBI, 9 R).

As a team the Orioles lead the league with a team average of .327 (2nd is .288), OBP of .431 (2nd is .373), slugging of .559 (2nd is .471), hits with 92 (2nd is 81), doubles with 18 (2nd is 14), home runs with 15 (2nd is 11), walks with 51 (2nd is 41) and runs with 68 (2nd is 48).

The Mets have been winning with their pitching, they are the polar opposite of the Orioles. The Mets lead the league in ERA (1.70), opponents average (.202), opponents slugging (.285) and have allowed the fewest home runs (4).

IL
The Toledo Mud Hens have started very strong and lead the league with a 7-0 record as they sit in the league champion's position which would earn them automatic promotion.

Just behind them are the Houston Astros and Pittsburgh Pirates (both 6-1) as they are currently the top two seeds for the playoffs with a three way race for the next two positions with the Washington Senators, Cleveland Indians and Montreal Expos all sitting at 5-2.

At the bottom of the standings are the Rochester Red Wings (0-7). Just above them are the Richmond Braves and Syracuse Chiefs (both 1-6).

Offense has been winning it for the top three as Toledo is hitting .367 as a team, Houston .344 and Pittsburgh .360. They have also been scoring over 10 runs per game at 81, 81 and 72 total runs. Pittsburgh may be the team to be feared the most as they have also been getting great pitching as they have a team ERA of 1.14 as Phil Niekro has been leading the way for them (3-0, 0.64).

May 1969 - Preview

MLB
5/4 - The Yankees (6-2) host the Mets (7-1) as the Mets will have Jim Bunning (3-0, 1.48) going against Mike G Marshall (3-1, 3.90).

5/7 - The A's (5-3) travel to New York to face the Mets (7-1). Oakland has Tom Walker (1-1, 2.40) going against Denny LeMaster (3-1, 2.17) in a matchup between teams in playoff contention presently.

5/7 - The Angels travel to Boston to face the Red Sox. Each team needs a win to try to get out of relegation zone.

5/11 - The Orioles take their intimidating offense to Detroit in a key game for the Tigers and their playoff chances.

5/14 - The Yankees travel to Boston to face the Red Sox. The Red Sox tentatively have Bill Champion (0-5, 10.22) on the mound if he is still a viable option by then. With the Red Sox on the verge of relegation this could be one of the last Red Sox/Yankees matchups for a while.

IL
5/2 - The Senators (5-2) host the Astros (6-1).

5/2 - Big time match as the Toledo Mud Hens put their unbeaten record on the line as they travel to Pittsburgh to play the Pirates. The Pirates just lost their first game of the season to the Expos after starting out 6-0. The Pirates have already had wins this season with scores of 14-2, 18-1, 16-0 and 16-1 prompting suggestions of a mercy rule.

5/9 - Another test for Toledo as the face the Montreal Expos.

5/9 - The Royals host the Indians, two playoff potential teams.

5/9 - The Seattle Pilots travel to Washington in another game with playoff implications.

5/13 - The Pirates host the Indians, this could be when the Pirates start to separate from the rest (my prediction for league champion).

5/16 - The Astros host the Pirates; could be the biggest game of the young season so far.

I am going to focus primarily on the top two leagues and give just occasional run-downs of the lower leagues throughout the season.

Still working out how I am going to handle the postings so bear with me as I find a solution that isn't too tedious but will give the best feel for it.

The Orioles get their own big inning in the 4th as they score 5 times, aided by a Cito Gaston grand slam, to take a 5-4 lead. That was the only scoring of the game as the Orioles win 5-4.

6/20 - IL

The Expos (13-8) host the Pirates (18-3). The Pirates are still a game behind the Senators in a race for the league crown and automatic promotion. The Expos are 2 games out of a playoff spot. Phil Niekro improves to 10-1 as the Pirates pound the Expos 13-1.

The Houston Astros (16-5) travel to San Diego to face the Padres (15-6). Both teams are right in the mix of the playoff race and hoping to get that number 2 seed to earn a home game in round one. The game is a pitchers' duel which goes to extra innings tied 1-1. Houston's Victor Price breaks the tie in the top of the 10th with a solo home run as Houston pulls out the 2-1 victory.

The Cleveland Indians (16-5) have a tough task ahead as they travel to Washington to face the league leading Senators (19-2). Don Sutton remains unbeaten and improves to (8-0) as he throws a 6 hit shutout in a 1-0 pitchers' duel with Fritz Peterson. The Indians win 1-0, cheers can be heard in Pittsburgh as they have now pulled even with the Senators.

6/22 - MLB

Entering the final 8 games of the season. Only the 5-17 Red Sox have been eliminated from playoff contention.

Playoffs as they would sit right now:
(1) Baltimore Orioles (17-5) vs. (4) St. Louis Cardinals (14-8)
(2) New York Mets (16-6) vs. (3) New York Yankees (15-7)

Relegation as it sits now:
Boston Red Sox (5-17)
California Angels (6-16)

Today's Key Games:
Minnesota Twins (14-8) @ Baltimore Orioles (17-5). The game is tight as the Twins lead 4-3 going into the bottom of the 9th. A two out RBI single by Cito Gaston ties the game 4-4 and the game goes to extra innings. Mike Andrew leads off the top of the 11th with a solo home run to give the Twins a 5-4 lead and they hang on for a much needed victory as they look to slide into a playoff spot.

St. Louis Cardinal (14-8) @ California Angels (6-17). The Angels try to get out of the relegation zone and they lead 2-0 late in the game. In the top of the 8th Joe Lis hits a two run home run to tie the game 2-2 and it goes into extra innings. In the top of the 10th Chris Johnson hits his first home run of the season, a 3 run shot, to give the Cardinals a 5-2 lead and they go on to win by that score. The loss eliminates the Angels from playoff contention mathematically.

San Francisco Giants (13-9) @ Detroit Tigers (12-10). Both teams can use a win to stay in striking distance for a playoff birth. Three straight games now go into exra innings today as this one is 3-3 as they enter the 10th. With one out in the top of the 10th Terry Crowley hits his first home run of the season, a solo shot, to give the Giants a 4-3 lead. Don Drysdale retires the side in order in the bottom half as the Giants win 4-3 and stay a game out of a potential playoff birth.

New York Mets (16-6) @ Chicago White Sox (7-15). One team looking to have a chance to take over the top spot in the league and another looking to stay out of relegation range. With the game tied 7-7 entering the 9th Gene Tenace singles home a go ahead run to make it 8-7. In the bottom of the 9th Jerry Kenney knocks in the tying run with his 4th hit of the game and the game goes into extra innings tied 8-8. In the bottom of the 10th with 2 on and 2 out Frank Johnson hits a 3 run blast, his first of the season, for a wlk off 11-8 victory for the White Sox.

6/24 - IL

Entering the final 8 game stretch of the season, the Washington Senators and Pittsburgh Pirates are tied at 19-3 for the league title and automatic promotion to the MLB.

The playoffs for the second spot would be:
Senators/Pirates (the one that doesn't win the title) vs. Toledo Mud Hens (16-6)
(2) Cleveland Indians (17-5) vs. (3) Houston Astros (17-5)

On the other end, the Rochester Red Wings sit at 2-20 at the bottom of the league with the Tidewater Tides at 3-19. Both are in the relegation zone. The Syracuse Chiefs and Louisville Colonels are just ahead at 4-18.

Today's notable games:
Toledo Mud Hens (16-6) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (19-3). The Pirates rode a fine performance by Jim Nash (9-2) to a 5-2 victory.

Seattle Pilots (14-8) @ Syracise Chiefs (4-18). The Pilots try to get into the playoff range for a chance to earn promotion as they get a 3 hit shutout by Gaylord Perry in a huge 16-0 victory.

San Diego Padres (15-7) @ Louisville Colonels (4-18). The Padres edge out a 4-2 victory behind Steve Carlton (7-3).

Washington Senators (19-3) @ Houston Astros (17-5). Houston gets out to a 7-0 lead through 6 as the Senators work their way back into the game with 3 runs in the 7th and 2 in the 8th to make it 7-5. A one out solo home run by John Stevenson in the top of the 9th makes it a 1 run game but the Astros manage to hang on as Hoyt Wilhelm then closes the door. The Astros win a big game 7-6 which puts the Pirates in 1st place all by themselves and puts the Astros just 1 game back of a possible number 1 seed in the playoffs.

6/25 - MLB

Baltimore Orioles (17-6) @ Boston Red Sox (5-18). The Orioles pound the Red Sox (into the IL?) by a 15-4 score. Sal Bando and Bobby Bonds each hit their 6th home run of the season and Dock Ellis improves to 8-1.

New York Yankees (16-7) @ New York Mets (16-7). Denny LeMaster improves to 7-1 as the Mets beat the Yankees 6-3.

Chicago White Sox (8-15) @ St. Louis Cardinals (15-8). The Cardinals win big 12-1 and pull even with the Yankees in the standings.

California Angels (6-17) @ Minnesota Twins (15-8). The Angels help their cause and hurt the Twins playoff hopes with a 6-5 victory as they jumped out with 5 runs in the first 3 innings and held on.

Atlanta Braves (8-15) @ San Francisco Giants (14-9). The Giants' playoff hopes took a bit of a hit as they took a 3-2 lead into the 9th but a 2 run home run by Greg Luzinski (his 6th of the season) would put the Braves on top 4-3. A 1,2,3 bottom of the 9th would give the Braves the victory.

6/27 - IL

Pittsburgh Pirates (20-3) @ Tidewater Tides (3-20). A beating of all beatings. The Tides could have used a mercy rule as the Pirates bat around in 3 different innings as they win 27-0. To add insult to injury Phil Niekro improves to 11-1 with a 1 hit shutout.

Cleveland Indians (18-5) @ Columbus Jets (11-12). The Indians score 11 times on 17 hits in an 11-5 victory.

Houston Astros (18-5) @ Rochester Red Wings (2-21). Rochester holds a 2-0 lead into the top of the 9th in what could be a huge moral victory. Rico Carty then struck with a 2 run home run with no outs in the 9th to tie the game 2-2. The game would go into extra innings and in the top of the 11th with the bases loaded and one out Ron Santo would clear the bases with a double to give the Astros a 5-2 lead. The Astros would hold onto that 5-2 lead for the victory. What could have been positive momentum may turn into a letdown that leads them to the American Association next year.

Louisville Colonels (4-19) @ Washington Senators (19-4). The Senators had to out-do the Pirates as the score 28 in a 28-2 victory.

Buffalo Bisons (5-18) @ Toledo Mud Hens (16-7). Toledo takes an early 5-0 lead and rides that to a 5-2 victory.

Syracuse Chiefs (4-19) @ Montreal Expos (14-9). Syracuse stuns the Expos and hurts their playoff chances with a big 9-3 road victory. The Chiefs are now 2 games clear of the relegation zone.

Seattle Pilots (15-8) @ San Diego Padres (16-7). The Padres ride a great outing by Bobby Bolin who improves to 9-1 in a 3-0 victory. Seattle drops to 2 games out of a possible playoff birth.

I have about 16 teams that seem to have been generic. I will find some teams to replace them with. Feel free to add some suggestions.

Some possibles (will add to this list):
Camden Riversharks
Atlantic City Surf

I don't see a Montgomery Team, so Might I suggest
The Montgomery Biscuits (I realize this is the current team...If you want to be historically accurate... Montgomery Rebels was the team there for a bit. :) )

The Montgomery Rebels are in the PCL. Middle of the pack last I checked.

Still trying to work out a way to cover all of the leagues. May take a season or two to get into a good approach. :)

6/29 - MLB

St. Louis Cardinals (16-8) @ New York Yankees (16-8). The Yankees take a 3-1 lead through the second but it is short lived as the Cardinals score twice in the third to tie the game. Paul Blair leads off the 6th inning with a home run, his 6th of the season, to give the Cardinals a 4-3 lead which would be the final. The Yankees are now at risk of missing the playoffs after having been in range to make them for much of the season.

San Francisco Giants (14-10) @ Cincinnati Reds (12-12). The Giants need wins in a hurry if they want to make the post season. They come up big with a 10-2 victory.

Boston Red Sox (5-17) @ California Angels (7-17). The Red Sox pretty much need to win out to avoid relegation. The Angels are one game away from potentially being safe but are currently in the 2nd relegation position. All runs come by way of home run as the Red Sox hit two solo shots and the Angels get one home run from Bill Melton, but his was a 3 run shot as the Angels win 3-2, the loss leaves the Red Sox at least 3 games in relegation position with only 5 to play, they should prepare for the IL next season.

Philadelphia Phillies (14-10) @ Atlanta Braves (9-15). The Braves are playing to remain safe while the Phillies are hoping for a late surge to make the post season. The Braves lead 6-2 after 6 innings. In the top of the 7th the Phillies core 3 times, aided by a Lee Green home run, to get back to 6-5. The score stays 6-5 heading into the 9th. The Phillies string 4 singles together in the inning to score twice and take a 7-6 lead which they would hang onto for the comeback victory.

Baltimore Orioles (18-6) @ Chicago Cubs (8-16). The Orioles are looking to keep the top seed while the Cubs are trying to stay one up on the Angels. The Orioles win a tight 2-1 game behind Tom Seaver (6-3). The Cubs are back at risk as the Orioles maintain the top spot.

Minnesota Twins (15-9) @ Chicago White Sox (8-16). The Twins are looking playoffs while the White Sox need to stay a game up on the Cubs and Angels so they stay in the safe zone. The Twins win 7-4 as Jim Wynn hits his 10th home run of the season.

New York Mets (17-7) @ Oakland A's (10-14). The Mets need a win to keep pace with the Orioles and avoid allowing the Cardinals to draw even for the 2nd seed. The Mets unload on the A's 9-1 for the victory.

7/1

IL
Toledo Mud Hens (17-7) @ Montreal Expos (14-10). The Expos keep their slim playoff hopes alive and deal a blow to Toledo with a 5-3 victory thank to a 2 home run game from Dick Allen.

Washington Senators (20-4) @ Seattle Pilots (15-9). The Senators keep pressure on the Pirates for the top spot and hurt Seattle's post season chances with a 7-3 victory thanks to a 4 run 8th inning.

Tidewater Tides (3-21) @ Buffalo Bisons (5-19). Buffalo leads 4-3 in the top of the 9th when Tidewater gets a 2 run single from Douglas Bozeman to take a 5-4 lead which they would hold for the victory. They need a few more of those to get out of relegation and the Buffalo fans have to start worrying about relegation a little more.

Rochester Red Wings (2-22) @ Louisville Colonels (4-20). Rochester gets a combined 2 hit shutout as they win 3-0 as the race to avoid relegation is getting very tight with only 5 games to play.

Richmond Braves (9-15) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (21-3). Jim Nash improves to 10-2 as the Pirates maintain first place with a 3-1 victory.

San Diego Padres (17-7) @ Syracuse Chiefs (5-19). The Padres move into a playoff spot with a 6-2 victory as Syracuse remains in the very crowded race to avoid relegation.

Columbus Jets (11-13) @ Houston Astros (19-5). Houston wins 6-1 thanks to a 5 run 8th inning as they look to secure at least one home game in the playoffs.

Cleveland Indians (19-5) @ Kansas City Royals (11-13). The Indians keep pace with the Astros with a 7-1 victory.

7/2 - MLB
Detroit Tigers (13-12) @ Baltimore Orioles (19-6). The Orioles send Dock Ellis (8-1, 3.03) to the hill looking to keep their solitary hold on first place. With the Tigers up 2-1 in the 9th Sal Bando takes Milt Pappas deep for a solo shot to tie the game 2-2 and send it to extra innings. The game remained locked at 2 until the top of the 14th when the Tigers bat around and score 4 runs to take a 6-2 lead which would be the final.

Chicago White Sox (8-17) @ Boston Red Sox (5-20). A loss here all but guarantees the Red Sox will be International League bound next season. The Red Sox score 5 times in the 4th to take a 5-0 lead. The White Sox struck back as they put up 4 in the 7th and 3 in the 8th to take a 7-5 lead and would go on to win 7-6.

New York Yankees (16-9) @ Minnesota Twins (16-9). Two teams vying for the last playoff position. The Twins would take a 5-0 lead into the 8th. The Yankees would score 3 runs in the 8th to get to 5-3 and then 5 runs in the top of the 9th to take an 8-5 lead. The Twins would load the based in the bottom of the 9th with 2 outs and Fred Reed would live out all kids dreams with a 2 out game winning grand slam in the bottom of the 9th as the Twins win 9-8.

California Angels (8-17) @ Chicago Cubs (8-17). The second relegation spot is wide open and the loser of this game would move into that spot. The Cubs win big with an 8-0 shutout.

New York Mets (18-7) @ St. Louis Cardinals (17-8). The Cardinals move up in the standings with a 7-2 victory.

EagleFan

05-14-2017, 09:01 PM

7/4 - IL
Pittsburgh Pirates (22-3) @ Cleveland Indians (20-5). The league leading Pirates have Phil Niekro (11-1, 1.87) going against Don Sutton (9-0, 1.29) for the Indians in what could be an epic pitcher's duel. Niekro earns his 12th victory of the season as Sutton is handed his first loss as the Pirates win 6-2.

Louisville Colonels (4-21) @ Columbus Jets (11-14). Louisville needs to string together some wins to avoid relegation. The Colonels lead 6-2 after the 5th inning but the Jets score 5 in the bottom of the 6th to take a 7-6 lead. Columbus would go on to win 8-7.

Buffalo Bisons (5-20) @ Richmond Braves (9-16). Buffalo would like to put two games between them and Louisville with a win. The game could see a lot of scoring as the starting pitchers both have ERA's over 6. In surprising fashion the game is a tight 4-2 game in which Buffalo wins to put 2 games between themselves and relegation with just 4 games remaining.

Seattle Pilots (15-10) @ Rochester Red Wings (3-22). Seattle has an outside chance at the playoffs if they can win while the Red Wings need wins badly. Seattle keeps their slim chances alive with a 7-2 victory.

Montreal Expos (15-10) @ Tidewater Tides (4-21). Much like the last game, this game is one team trying to keep playoff hopes alive and one just trying to get out of relegation. Montreal wins big, 11-1.

Syracuse Chiefs (5-20) @ Toledo Mud Hens (17-8). Syracuse could use a win to make a gap between themselves and relegation while Toledo is in a playoff race. Toledo rides a 3-1 lead through 5 innings to a 3-2 victory.

Houston Astros (20-5) @ Kansas City Royals (11-14). The game means little for the Royals but the Astros could be in contention for a number one seed in the playoffs with a victory. Houston pounds them 13-1 with a 5 home run explosion.

San Diego Padres (18-7) @ Washington Senators (21-4). A big game for both in terms of post season and the Senators can stay within one of the league title. The Padres get a 4 hit shutout fro Bobby Bolin (10-1) in a 3-0 victory.

EagleFan

05-14-2017, 09:12 PM

7/6 - MLB
Baltimore Orioles (19-7) @ Atlanta Braves (10-16). The Orioles ride a 5 hit shutout by Tom Seaver (7-3) and a Bobby Bonds home run (his 9th of the season) to a 2-0 victory to remain in first.

Boston Red Sox (5-21) @ New York Yankees (16-10). A loss will send the Red Sox officially to relegation. The Yankees need a win to try to climb back into the post season. The Red Sox do not go down without a fight as they win 13-5.

California Angels (8-18) @ Detroit Tigers (14-12). A win here would be big for the Angels as the two teams that are a game up on them will be playing each other today as they try to climb back out of relegation. The Angels ride a Carlton Fisk home run to a 2-1 victory.

Minnesota Twins (17-9) @ New York Mets (18-8). The Mets have been slipping a bit and need a win to keep the Cardinals from potentially passing them into the second seed. The Twins continue the Mets slide with a 9-3 victory and they are now tied with the Mets.

Chicago Cubs (9-17) @ Chicago White Sox (9-17). The loser will be tied for the second relegation spot. The Cubs pound out 10 runs in a 10-1 victory.

Philadelphia Phillies (15-11) @ San Francisco Giants (16-10). Each team needs a win to keep slim post season hopes alive. The Giants win 7-4.

S. Louis Cardinals (18-8) @ Oakland A's (10-16). The Cardinals can move into sole possession of 2nd place with a victory. A Roberto Clemente home run (his 8th of the season) helps the Cardinals win 6-2

05-14-2017, 09:23 PM

7/8 - IL
Cleveland Indians (20-6) @ Buffalo Bisons (6-20). A Cleveland win could help them move into a position for a home game in the post season (pending other games). A Buffalo win pretty much makes them safe from relegation. The Indians pound the Bisons 10-2.

Houston Astros (21-5) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (23-3). A Pirates victory will keep them at least 2 games up with 3 games to play, giving them a near stranglehold on the title. Bill Singer and the Astros have a different idea as they beat the Prates 6-2 as Singer improves to 11-2.

Kansas City Royals (11-15) @ Louisville Colonels (4-22). Kansas City blanks Louisville 9-0 as the Colonels remain in danger of relegation.

Washington Senators (21-5) @ Syracuse Chiefs (5-21). One team trying to get within a game of the league leader and another trying to stay at least a game out of relegation. The Chiefs stun the Senators 6-2. Syracuse is 2 up with 3 left, making them almost certainly safe.

Tidewater Tides (4-22) @ Toledo Mud Hens (18-8). Tidewater needs the win to get out of relegation zone while Toledo is trying to make the post season and just as desperately needs the win for that goal. Toledo has little trouble in a 7-1 victory.

Rochester Red Wings (3-23) @ San Diego Padres (19-7). Relegation versus playoffs. A 3 hit shutout by Steve Carlton (9-3) as the Padres pound out 12 runs in the 12-0 victory.

7/9 - MLB
St. Louis Cardinals (19-8) @ Minnesota Twins (18-9). This would be a playoff preview if the season ended now, except it would be in St. Louis. The Cardinal go deep 3 times in an 8-5 victory as they remain hot and put the Twins in danger of being tied for the final playoff spot.

Atlanta Braves (10-17) @ California Angels (9-18). An important game in the tight race to avoid the second relegation spot. A win for the Braves pretty much makes them safe. The Braves lead 4-2 heading into the bottom of the 9th and safety is potentially 3 outs away. With two outs and a runner on Bill Melton hits a game tying 2 run home run that sends the game to extra innings. In the bottom of the 10th Ron Swoboda hits a one out solo home run to give the Angels the 5-4 victory and keep the fight to avoid relegation a very tight race.

Cincinnati Reds (13-14) @ Baltimore Orioles (20-7). The Orioles need a win to stay a game up on the surging Cardinals. The Reds have other plans as they score 3 runs in the 1st on their way to a 6-2 victory.

New York Mets (18-9) @ Boston Red Sox (6-21). The Red Sox could try to play spoilers for the Mets. The Mets are able to ride a strong outing by Denny Lemaster (8-2) to a 3-2 victory.

Oakland A's (10-17) @ Philadelphia Phillies (15-12). The A's need a win to stay at least a game up on the last relegation spot and remain safe. They get the game of the season by Tom Walker with a 5 hit shutout for only his 2nd win of the season (2-7) in a much needed 1-0 victory.

Chicago White Sox (9-18) @ Detroit Tigers (14-13). A loss by the White Sox leaves them alone in the 2nd relegation position. Detroit rides an early lead to an 8-3 victory as the White Sox are in danger (may be a bad year for Sox).

New York Yankees (16-11) @ Chicago Cubs (10-17). A win for the Yankees leaves them within a game of a possible playoff spot while a win for the Cubs may leave them safe as they would be 2 up on the second relegation position with 2 games to play. The Yankees came to play as they score 15 runs on 22 hits as they bat around in two different innings on their way to a 15-4 victory.

San Francisco Giants (17-10) @ Los Angeles Dodgers (12-15). The Giants can move into a tie for the final playoff position with a win. The Dodgers score 3 in the first inning and take that to a 4-1 victory.

Toledo Mud Hens (19-8) @ Richmond Braves (9-18). An important road game for Toledo as the Braves try to play spoilers. Toledo come up bug with an 8-1 victory.

Tucson Toros (12-15) @ Tulsa Oilers (13-14). Tucson could use a win to get away from the relegation zone which is just below them. The Oilers need a win to help their playoff chances. Tulso ties the game 6-6 with a run in the 9th but the Toros score in the top of the 11th for a 7-6 victory.

The final games of the season.

Lewiston Bronc (8-21) @ South Bend Cubs (10-19). A loss by Lewiston clinches relegation. A win and they could avoid relegation with help. A pitchers' duel that goes to extra innings scoreless.

1st round playoffs
Walla Walla Bears @ Texas Rangers.
T-1: Edwin Varga (11-3, 2.39) pitching for Texas. He strikes out the side in the top of the first, though allowed a walk to the second batter.
B-1: Jim Gibson (6-3, 2.74) pitching for Walla Walla. Gibson walks the bases loaded with one out. John Ramirez (.359, 3 HR, 30 RBI) falls behind 0-2 in the count and hits a fly ball to right for the second out. The runner at third tags and tries to score but is thrown out at the plate for an inning ending double play.

T-2: Vargas walks another batter but strikes out two in the top of the second to keep the game scoreless.
B-2: An easy 1, 2, 3 inning for Gibson that saw him throw only 10 pitches even though 6 of them were out of the zone, a little patience may have been what the Rangers needed.

T-3: A 6 pitch inning for Vargas that saw a lead off hit batter erased with a double play.
B-3: A 1 out double by Jimmy Morgan (.317, 6 HR, 19 RBI) doesn't lead to anything as the next two batters fly out to left to end the inning and keep the game scoreless.

T-4: A Ryan Essman single and Paul Morris double puts runners at 2nd and 3rd with no outs. A David Young ground out brings home the first run ot the game as Walla Walla takes a 1-0 lead. A Json Mudgett ground out brings home the second run of the game and through the top of the 4th Walla Walla leads 2-0.
B-4: With 2 outs and no one on Ray Ball (.333, 4 HR, 28 RBI) lines a shot over the left field fence for a solo home run to put the Rangers on the board. Through 4 innings Walla Walla leads 2-1.

T-5: A two out single leads to nothing for Walla Walla as the next batter strikes out.
B-5: A one out single goes nowhere for the Rangers and they trail 2-1 through 5 innings.

T-6: Robert Mendez (2-0, 2.83) comes in to pitch for the Rangers. In a repeat of the 4th inning Essman and Morris lead off with a single and double to put runners at 2nd and 3rd with no outs. With the infield in a ground ball to 2nd doesn't bring home a run. Jason Mudgett is intentionally walked to load the bases with one out. Mendez strikes out the next two batters to get out of the jam and keep the game 2-1.
B-6: The lead off batter is hit but erased on a double play and the Rangers still trail 2-1 after 6 innings.

T-7: With two men on and two outs Paul Morris (.294, 9 HR, 36 RBI) rips a ball deep down the right field line and it curls fair into the stands for a 3 run home run to give Walla Walla a 5-1 lead. Mendez is replaced by Josh Ring (0-1, 2.16) and he gets them out of the inning.
B-7: A 2 out double leads to nothing for the Rangers and they trail 5-1 through 7 innings.

T-8: William Turner in to pitch for Texas. Jason Mudgett greets him with a 412 foot shot to left center to lead off the inning. With two outs a hit batter and single put two men on but a deep fly out to right ends the inning with Walla Walla up 6-1.
B-8: Carlos Vergara (0-0, 1.26) comes in to pitch for Walla Walla. He has an efficient 5 pitch 1, 2, 3 inning. Through 8 Walla Walla is up 6-1 and are three outs away from moving on.

T-9: Walla Walla gets runners at 1st and 2nd with one out but a pop up and ground out end the inning with no damage.
B-9: Alex Lopez walks to lead off the inning. On the fist pitch John Ramirez hits a line drive that just clears the right field wall for a 2 run home run to make it 6-3. After a fly out and walk Vergara gets Jordan Quintana to ground into a game ending double play.

Walla Walla moves on 6-3.

Frederick Keys @ Colorado Rockies.
This one is a little less compelling as the Rockies pound the Keys 10-0 behind a 3 hit shutout by Josh Baldi and behind a 2 home run performance by Jamie Okalita.

Colorado moves on 10-0.

7/13 - MLB

Chicago White Sox (9-19) @ Atlanta Braves (10-18). Atlanta would clinch safety with a victory. A loss would put the White Sox at risk of clinching relegation today. With the Braves leading 3-0 through 6 innings the White Sox score twice in the 7th and twice in the 8th to take a 4-3 lead. They take the lead into the bottom of the 9th when Don Bosch (.284, 5 HR, 19 RBI) hits a one out base clearing triple to score two runs and win the game 5-4. The Braves are safe and the White Sox could be in serious trouble.

Minnesota Twins (18-10) @ Oakland A's (11-17). The Twins could potentially clinch a playoff spot with a victory, depending on what happens elsewhere. The Twins do their job with an 8-3 victory.

Detroit Tigers (15-13) @ New York Yankees (17-11). A loss would officially knock the Yankees out of the playoffs. With the Yankees leading 5-3 in the top of the 8th Steve Garvey and Nate Colbert lead off the inning with back to back home runs to tie the game 5-5. With 2 outs and runners and the bases loaded in the top of the 9th a wild pitch brings home the go ahead run for the Tigers. Frank Fernandez then rips the next pitch to left for a single bringing home one but Charlie Manuel is thrown out trying to score which ends the inning with the Tigers up 7-5. Dean Chance comes in to close out the game and get his first save of the season for the Tigers. The Yankees have been eliminated.

California Angels (10-18) @ Cincinnati Reds (14-14). A win for the Angels would make them safe from relegation and leave the White Sox just a Cubs win from being relegated. The Reds have something to say about that with a 13-5 victory.

Chicago Cubs (10-18) @ New York Mets (19-9). The Cubs can clinch safety with a victory, the Mets can clinch a playoff spot with a victory. The Cubs score twice in the first to take a 2-0 lead but the Mets score 2 runs in the 2nd to tie and 2 more in the 6th to take a 4-2 lead which would be how the game ends. The Cubs are still in trouble and the Mets have clinched a playoff spot.

Boston Red Sox (6-22) @ St. Louis Cardinals (20-8). The Cardinals have been hot and the Red Sox have nothing to play for. The Cardinals score two in the 1st and the Red Sox tie it with 2 in the second. The score remains 2-2 into extra innings. In the bottom of the 10th Roberto Clemente hits a 2 out solo walk off home run for the 3-2 victory, his 9th of the season.

Baltimore Orioles (20-8) @ San Francisco Giants (17-11). A Baltimore win will eliminate the Giants and have all 4 playoff teams set, only seeding left to finalize. A Giants win keeps them alive and knocks the Orioles from the top spot. The Orioles aren't messing around as they score 13 in a 13-4 victory as 5 different Orioles go deep.

7/15 - CARL Finals

Walla Walla Bears @ Colorado Rockies
T-1: Josh Baldi takes the mound for the Colorado Rockies. He retires the side in order.
B-1: Jim Gibson takes the mound for Walla Walla on short rest. The Rockies put runners at the corners with two outs. Josh Partida (.322, 4 HR, 17 RBI) clears the bases with a 2 run double to right. After 1 inning Colorado leads 2-0.

T-2: The side is retired in order, with 2 strikeouts.
B-2: Gibson settles and retires the side quickly in order.

T-3: Baldi continues to shine as he retires the side in order again; 9 up and 9 down.
B-3: A one out single doesn't lead to any threat as the Rockies lead 2-0 after 3 innings.

T-4: After retiring the first 11 batters of the game Baldi finally cracks as he allows a 2 out double to Ryan Essman but gets Ryan Morris to pop up to 2nd to end the inning.
B-4: With 2 outs and runners at the corners Josh Baldi helps himself with a line drive single to right to knock in a run and make it 3-0. The inning ends with no further damage.

T-5: The Bears start the inning with a walk, a double, a triple and a single to score 3 runs and tie the game 3-3. The next batter grounds into a double play and that seems to end the momentum as the inning ends tied 3-3.
B-5: Craig Elliott singles home Paulo Damil, who has reached base on an error and moved to third and a single, to give the Rockies a 4-3 lead. With 2 outs and runners at the corners Clay Ertel singles to center to score Jamie Okolita and a throwing error trying to get Bryan Chadima at third allows him to score. Through 5 the Rockies now lead 6-3 as they get the three runs back they gave up in the top half.

T-6: They Bears load the bases with no outs but back to back strike outs threaten to end the threat. Ronald Pietila rips a 1-0 pitch into the gap in left center and to the wall, he legs out a bases clearing triple and the game is tied 6-6. Scott Ames (0-0, 3.27) come in to pitch for the Rockies and he gets the final out with one pitch. The game is tied 6-6.

7/15 - AA

Reading Phillies (15-13) @ Tucson Toros (13-15). Reading could clinch a playoff spot with a win and help. Tucson is on the outside looking in but could still either make the playoffs or end up relegated. The Toros help their cause with a 12-5 victory.

Oklahoma City 89ers (13-15) @ Denver Bears (12-16). Oklahoma City wins a tight 2-1 game, they led 2-0 into the 9th as a solo home run by Woody Bell made it tight but the Bears were unable to follow that with anything.

Hawaii Islanders (12-16) @ Waterbury Indians (11-17). A loss almost certainly dooms the Indians to relegation. Hawaii scored 3 in the 2nd and they hold on for a 5-3 victory.

Portland Beavers (16-12) @ Tulsa Oilers (13-15). Portland can clinch a playoff spot with a victory. Tulsa has other ideas as they take a 7-1 lead into the 9th. Portland threatens in the 9th as they score 4 to get to within 7-5 with 2 outs and the bases loaded but a ground out ends their threat as Tulsa wins 7-5.

Indianapolis Indians (13-15) @ Omaha Royals (14-14). The Indians get a 6 hit shutout from Richard Hoban (6-4) for a 2-0 victory. The Royals may fall out of playoff position.

Eugene Emeralds (21-7) @ Vancouver Mounties (12-16). The Emeralds can clinch the league title with a victory. A Vancouver victory would relegate Waterbury. The Emeralds only need a 3 run home run from Eli Grba in a 3-1 victory. They break out the champagne as they have clinched the title and earn promotion to the IL.

Iowa Oaks (13-15) @ Spokane Indians (13-15). Spokane keeps the lead all game and hangs on for a 5-3 victory. Once getting within 2 runs Iowa didn't get another runner on base so the lead was never in danger.

Phoenix Giants (19-9) @ Tacoma Cubs (14-14). Phoenix has clinched the number 1 seed in the playoffs. A Cubs' victory would move them in to the 4 seed. The Giants show no mercy with a 9-3 victory to keep that 4 seed up for grabs going into the final game.

With the Reds up 5-4 in the bottom of the 9th Henry Gomez leads off the inning with a solo home run to tie the game.

San Diego Padres (22-7) @ Pittsburgh Pirates (25-4). The Pirates can clinch the league title and automatic promotion with a victory. This game features two of the top pitchers in the league as San Diego sends Bobby Bolin (11-1, 2.07) out against Phil Niekro (13-1, 1.71). All the hype about the pitchers and the Pirates win with their offense, 13-4, to clinch the league title and promotion to the MLB next season.

Want to change up the scheduling so all leagues will start and end on the same schedule.

IL
Montreal Expos @ Washington Senators
A pitchers' duel that would be tied 1-1 through 9 innings. In the bottom of the 10th Washington would put runners at the corners with 1 out. On a 3-2 pitch right fielder Bubba Morton would rip the ball deep to center for the second out but it would be deep enough to bring home the winning run. Washington wins 2-1.

Boston Red Sox @ Kansas City Royals
The Royals would lead 4-2 in the 8th when Henry Gomez would single home Juan Beniquez to get the Red Sox to within 4-3. The next batter would strike out to end the inning.

Tampa Bay Rays @ Newark Co-Pilots
Newark would lead 4-1 going into the 8th inning. In the top of the 8th with 2 outs and 2 men on Tampa third baseman Milton Jordan would take an 0-2 pitch and line it over the right field wall for a game tying three rune home run. The game would go into extra innings tied 4-4. In the top of the 11th reliever John Hurley would have control issues and walk the first two men he faced. The next two hitters would single, each bringing home a run and Tampa would lead 6-4 going into the bottom of the 11th. With two outs a walk and a single would put the tying run on and bring up the potential winning run but a ground out to second would end the game as Tampa wins 6-4.

MIDW
Billings Mustangs @ Salt Lake City Bees
Salt Lake City starter Bill Denehy (8-1, 3.54 in regular season) would lead his team to a 5-1 victory as he would go the distance, allowing only 1 run on just 4 hits.

They load the bases again in the top of the 9th but a strikeout and pop up end that threat. In the bottom of the 9th a sacrifice fly brings home 1 to make it 2-1.

Current Players (Active and Reserve)

P Harold Boggs - I don't have a lot of confidence in this 20 year old; he was on the reserve and doesn't seem to be able to hit the side of a barn in terms of control.

P Charlie Hudson - A 20 year old lefty that we have signed through 1972. Started 13 games last season and was 6-4 with a 3.32 ERA. Has a decent fastball and good slider. About 8 strikeouts per 9 innings but walks quite a few.

P Frank Lolich - A 24 year old right hander that was back on reserve after starting 1 game and lasting just 3 innings and giving up 6 runs. He would need resigned but I have no intention of doing so.

P Keith Trahan - A 34 year old right handed vet. He started 15 games and was 4-3 with a 2.98 ERA last season. He does nothing spectacularly but seems very dependable. He is signed through the 1971 season.

P Richard Turner - A 20 year old reserve player. He may become a dependable option and will want to give him a chance. Will need to resign him first.

P Ronald Clark - A 19 year old reserve player who appeared in 2 games in relief last season. Nothing stands out about him. Would need to resign him if I want to keep him.

P Thomas Ferraro - A 25 year old reliever who appeared in 13 games last season. He had trouble as he allowed 31 hits in 18.0 innings. Very underwhelming. He is under contract through 1971.

P Wayne Holsopple - A 21 year old reliever who appeared in 5 games last season. He was 0-1 with 1 save and a 4.32 ERA. I would need to resign him if I want to keep him .

P Q.P. Lowe - A 25 year old right handed reliever who appeared in 18 games but did not show well. He was 3-5 with 4 saves and a 6.23 ERA. Nothing stands out about his pitches or skills. I would need to resign him to keep him but I am not putting that at the top of my list of things to do.

P Willie Richardson - A 23 year old right handed reliever who in only on the reserve squad. He had a mediocre fastball and slider and no control. He is under contract through the 1971 season.

P Danilo Rivas - A 35 year old lefty reliever. He appeared in only 6 games in 5.1 innings and allowed 4 hits and no runs. He seems average at best for this level but provides depth. I would have to resign him to keep him.

P Kenneth Van Bell - A 20 year old right hander who appeared in 6 games out of the pen last season. He has an okay fastball and splitter but that is all. I would need to resign him to keep him.

P Fernando Vega - A 20 year old right hander who was only in the reserve squad. I would be tempted to resign him to give him a chance if possible, he needs resigned to be kept.

C Dale Darnell - A 21 year old right handed hitting catcher. He started every game and hit .245 with 15 runs scored and 13 RBI's. I would need to resign him to keep him.

C James Frensley - A 21 year old right handed hitting catcher. He appeared in 15 games last season and was 2 for 12 at the plate. He would need resigned to be kept.

1B Bobbye Beckner - A 28 year old right handed hitting first baseman. He started 8 games last year and hit .233 with 1 home run and 2 RBI's in those games. He has a decent eye it seems. I would need to resign him to keep him.

2B Gene Clines - A 23 year old right handed hitting second baseman. He started 29 of the 30 games last year. He hit .283 with 2 home runs and 15 RBI's. He does a good job of putting the ball in play. I need to resign him and he is near the top of my list of things to do.

2B Alsxis Corro - A 21 year old right handed hitting second baseman. He played in just 5 games last season and was 0 for 4. Nothing stands out about him. Would need to resign him to keep him.

3B Dick K Smith - A 25 year old right handed hitting third baseman. He started 27 games and played in every game last season. He hit .290 with 15 runs scored, 2 home runs and 20 RBI's. He looks like a solid player for this level and I want to resign him for next year.

SS Pedro Gonzalez - A 32 year old right handed hitting shortstop. He started every game last season; playing 20 games at short, 8 at first and 2 at second. He hit .328 with 18 runs scored, 3 home runs and 17 RBI's. He does a great job at putting the ball in play. I need to resign him to keep him.

SS Jerry Robinson - A 23 year old right handed hitting shortstop. He played in 27 games and started 14 last season; he split time between second, third and short. He hit .254 with 2 home runs and 10 RBI's. He also does a good job putting the ball in play. He needs resigned to be kept.

SS Albert Strane - A 23 year old right handed hitting shortstop. He was only on the reserves. Looks like a weak hitter but does have speed. Would need to resign him to keep him and might just to add some speed off the bench.

LF Fabien Mang - A 21 year old left handed hitting left fielder. He started 8 games and played in 9. He was 7 for 28 in his limited time. He is not signed beyond this past season.

LF Albert Holland - A 23 year old left handed hitting left fielder. He started 26 games last season. He hit .297 with 19 runs scored, 3 home runs, 16 RBI's and stole 7 bases. He strikes out too often but has greate speed; he needs to get more than 7 stolen bases. I need to resign him to keep him and plan on it.

CF Jackie Adams - A 21 year old right handed hitting center fielder. He started 8 games (only games he played in). Hit only hit .097 (3 for 31) in his time. He had a bad bat but is very fast. I will explore other avenues before resigning him.

CF Joe Solimine - A 26 year old left handed hitting center fielder. He started ever game, splitting time between first base and the outfield. He hit .302 with 15 runs scored, 4 home runs and 17 RBI's. Solid player that I would like to resign.

RF Tom Robson - A 24 year old right handed hitting right fielder. He started every game last season. He hit .303 with 23 runs scored, 9 home runs and 29 RBI's. While he strikes out a lot he also has the most pop on the team. I need to resign him.

August 18, 1970

Free Agency has started.

My first action is going after the second base upgrade the owner wanted. I am aiming for a player that was in the Texas League last season. I know it is a reach but maybe I can promise him the world (in relation to our league). That got derailed quickly as the Cleveland Indians offered him a contract.

I find a 28 year old second baseman, Bill Scripture. He is slow but may have a little pop in his bat. I went with a high offer, much higher than my highest priced player so fat (60K per year for 2 years). He will think it over.

I also don't like my current situation behind the plate so I pursue a 30 year old right handed hitting catcher, Lloyd Flodin. He looks solid all around for our level. I offer him 65K per year for 2 years.

Those contracts may handcuff me but if I can add two players who are both above our level it could help us move into potential promotion range.

Clark is diagnosed with hamstring soreness and is day to day but estimated to be out a week.

I send him to reserve and bring Wayne Holsopple up to have an arm available for our next game.

I also send Hudson to reserve and bring Q.V. Lowe up; should have done this before so I can swap my starters in and out to have another reliever available each game.

We win with a big signing. We sign 33 year old 1B Orlando Cepeda who played in the MLB last season (no success there but he played there). He became available after the Minnesota Twins released him.

I would like to get something out of him and maybe sell him to a higher level club if needed.

EagleFan

I bring Adams back down to my reserve level to make room for Cepeda. Making a few lineup changes, putting Cepeda at cleanup.

Our fans are very excited about the signing.

We make an offer to a player that was cut from the Atlanta Braves. Catcher Jim Pagliaroni. He was hitting only .211 in just 6 games this season.

Last season he played with the Red Sox in the IL and he hit .344 with 11 home runs and led the league with 39 runs scored.

Chances are that we will lose him shortly but at least we make money off selling his contract.

We also offer a deal to second baseman Horace Clarke who was released by the Minnesota Twins ans has not played a game this season.

Last season he played for the Cocoa Astros in the CALL and hit .367.

Auburn is an odd team, they are filled by pitchers, only 4 position players. That is why they have the worst offense in the league.

Sadly I could barely beat them.

We scored 25 runs on just 16 hits. We were walked 19 times and hit by pith twice. We move to 7-7 with the big win, hope that wasn't all of our runs for a while. We didn't even score the most runs today...

I offer Claude Osteen a two year contract. He was released by the Baltimore Orioles and hasn't played at all in the last year and a half.

We go on the road to face the South Bend Cubs (8-6). A win here would take us over .500; I just hope we still have a few runs left in us after last game.

Charles Hudson (3-2, 3.48) vs. Archie Reynolds (6-1, 1.94)

June 1, 1971

We are on the road to face the Wichita Pilots (9-7). We need to find a way to start a streak so we can get back to, and go above, .500. Wichita is a game out of a playoff birth so this is big for both teams. Wichita has an injured starting pitcher so we may get a break today.

Charles Hudson (3-3, 3.53) vs. Manuel Giron (0-2, 5.21)

We have not faced Giron. They are 7 for 23 with 1 home run against Hudson. Giron is a knuckleball pitcher who has walked 19 batters in 20 innings.

Partly cloudy, 58 degrees and wind blowing in from center at 12 MPH.

Claude Osteen has signed with us; a left hander that could be a starter or reliever from what I see. I bring Lowe down and him up. Going to give him a start next game and move Trahan to long relief.

Charlie Hudson (4-3, 3.00) vs. Kevin Lightsey (5-3, 2.26)

Our starters are 9 for 22 against Lightsey, hopefully we keep it up. Their starters are 3 for 26 against Hudson, hopefully that pace keeps up.

I offer free agent 35 year old left handed reliever Steve Hamilton a 5 year deal. From what I see he looks like he would be a major upgrade in the pen. He was cut by the Houston Astros of the MLB and had little success at that level. He looks like he would do quite well at our level.

I was most of the way through the game and lost my write up with an accidental click.

We played at Camden with Claude Osteen starting. We got on the board early with 3 runs in the first and went on to a big 10-2 victory as we pounded out 21 hits.

Joe Solimine led the way with 4 hits but everyone on the team had at least 2 hits except Flodin, who did not have a het (even Osteen had 2 hits). Robson had an odd game going 2 for 6 but struck out 4 times.

Joe Solimine wins player of the week as he was 7 for 11 with 1 home run, 3 RBI's and 5 runs scored last week.

Took a punch to the gut as we had a player bought away from us. A really big punch to the gut. Our MVP candidate CF Joe Solimine has been bought by the Kansas City Royals. We wish him well but have a large void to fill.

Opening round playoff game as we play at Wichita against the Pilots.

The pitching match-up will be Charles Hudson versus Bob Strampe. Hudson was 7-5 with a 3.02 ERA in the regular season with 109 strikeouts in 95.1 innings. Strampe was 2-1 with a 2.17 ERA in the regular season, he missed most of the early season with a hamstring injury but has looked solid since returning.

Our lineup does not have any history with Strampe. Their starters are 12 for 48 with 1 home run against Hudson.

Clear skies and 79 degrees with wind blowing in from left at 12 mph.
