1984 World Series

Game 1
10/12
Valenzuela v. Reuschel
7-2 L to the Blue Jays
Oh fuck, it wasn't supposed to start like this. The Blue Jays opened up scoring when Jessie Barfield went deep to left in the 2^nd inning. Lee Lacy hit a 2-run shot in the 3^rd and it just got worse from there. Rick Reuschel went 8 innings and allowed 6 hits along the way. Valenzuela couldn't make it out of the 5^th inning. He had 4 walks and 0 strikeouts. Just not himself on this day. In fact, the Blue Jays played more like we did than we did. Marshall and Evans each went 2-4, but no one can really be happy about the way that this one has started. Toronto leads 1-0.

Game 2
10/13
Wilcox v. Leal
4-1 L to the Blue Jays
What the hell is happening? Is it a letdown from the NLCS? Is it just that the AL is that much better than the NL? Is it bad luck? Cause it feels like bad luck. Toronto picked right up where they left off. Moseby lead off with a walk, second on a ground out, steals third, home on an Upshaw single. They keep chipping away. Tony Fernandez, the least dangerous power hitter, who had 2 homers on the year, hit one 421ft to right field. They score in the 5^th on a single, steal, groundout, wild pitch. Bad luck? Sid Bream gets one back for us with his own 376ft solo homer to right, but that's all we can manage. The Blue Jays tack another on in the 9^th with a walk and 2 singles. Leal and the rest of the Blue Jay bullpen had no problems with us. Marshall and Randolph had a couple hits. Murphy is hitting .139 in the postseason and that's higher than both UL Washington and Roy Smalley. 2-0 Toronto. Heading to Canada, where we won our last game.
