CLCS Game 1:

Drew Taylor pitches for Apex vs Renaud Lemieux for Newark.

Lemieux starts the playoffs for his third different FOOL team in his career and he is gifted a comfortable cushion in this one as Newark scores 3 runs in the first two innings, another run in the 4th and 4 more runs in the 5th.

With an 8-0 lead, Lemieux has all of the lead he will need as he pitches a complete game, striking out 8 and allowing only 3 runs on 4 hits.

Adrian Tomlinson goes 2 for 3 with a HR and 2 RBI in the win for the Terriers as Newark wins their first playoff game ever.

Spoiler


Newark 8, Apex 3

RLCS Game 1:

Marcos Rodriguez pitches for Hartford vs Trevor Moore for New York

New York takes a 3-1 lead into the 7th inning when Kanko Yamada hits a 2-run Home Run for Hartford as part of a 3 run inning to put the Harpooners into the lead 4-3.

Hitomaro 'Lurch' Okamoto is the hero of the day however as he hits a 2-run Home Run in the bottom of the 8th to put the Heroes back on top for good.

CLCS Game 2:

Arbie Caulfield pitches for Apex vs Esteban Gallegos for Newark:

Alex Quinones puts Apex on top early with a RBI double in the top of the first for a 1-0 Assassins lead. With the next at bat, Quinones tries to expand the lead on a Jon Curden, but he is thrown out at the plate for the final out of the first for Apex.

Apex leads for most of the game, but Newark comes back. In the 6th Hou Chen, the long time Colorado Ranchero hits a sacrifice fly to tie things up. Then Jud wallace another former Ranchero with the RBI single to put Newark on top 2-1.

That is all the Terriers will need as Gallegos pitches 8 innings, striking out 7 and giving up just the 1 run on 6 hits.

Spoiler


Newark 2, Apex 1

Newark leads the series 2 games to 0.

Tuesday, October 16th, 2040: Amstadter Zeroes in on Hartford
The Harpooners manager was philosophical after his team was shut out by the New York Heroes 3-0.

"It was just one of those games, shake it off and do better next time," he said.

Pepin Amstadter blanked them on 3 hits with 2 walks and 8 strikeouts.

"I kept them off balance. I could tell a lot of them were late on fastballs. They were fouling them off. Once you see that, it sets them up for other pitches," Amstadter said.

"I set them up pretty good, where if they chased one breaking ball, they were going to chase another one."

Amstadter in 2040 has fashioned a 15-11 mark, 5.08 ERA and thrown 205.2 innings in 32 starts. Opposing clubs are batting .246 against him.

CLCS Game 3:

Naofumi Ueda pitches for Newark vs Egidio Ferretti for Apex

Newark and Apex swap runs in the first two innings and then trade runs once again in the 6th and 8th to remain tied up 2-2 through 8 innings. Both starting pitchers made it at least 7 innings and kept their clubs in the ball game. They'll now hand it off to the bullpens to try to pull out the win.

In the 9th, Newark manages a 2-out double from Tetsuo Nishikawa but he ends up stranded. Apex meanwhile gets a lead off walk from Cruden, but he never makes it past first base. So we head to the first extra innings game of the 2040 postseason.

Newark draws 2 walks in the 10th but is unable to get a hit, leaving both runners stranded. Apex gets a single but nothing else, so on to the 11th we go.

In the 11th, Newark watches their pinch hitter jose Santos draw a one out walk. He then steals second base which leads Apex to walk Nishikawa as well. With two on and only one out, Santos and Nishikawa pull off a double steal. Apex decides once again to intentionally walk Jon Blowey rather than to pitch to him.

With the bases loaded, only one out and Emilio Mateo up to bat, he also draws a walk! Antonio Garcia has walked in the go ahead run! Newark now leads 3-2. Garcia manages to get out of the jam by getting Tomlinson to ground into a double play to end the inning but not before the Terriers take a lead.

Javier Cruz enters as the pitcher in the bottom of the 11th to try to close out the game for Newark. He gets Quinones to fly out to start off the inning. Cruden manages to get a one out single however to start a rally. The winning run now comes up to the plate in the form of Mark Adams.

Adams takes a called strike and then fouls off another one.. the 2-2 pitch, hit... hard.. but right at the short stop. Over to second for one.. On to first.... In time!! That will do it, Newark wins!

Spoiler


Newark 3, Apex 2 (11 innings)

Newark leads the CLCS 3 games to 0

RLCS Game 3:

Javier Zuniga pitches for New York vs Diego Hernandez for Hartford

Down 2 games to 0, Hartford understands the importance of winning this one. They start off hot with 3 runs in the bottom of the third inning, including a 2-run RBI double from Mitsuoki Sugimoto.

New York manages to get 2 of the runs back, but that is not enough. Diego Hernandez pitches 8 innings, giving up only those two runs on 6 hits to get the win for Hartford.

Spoiler


Hartford 4, New York 2

New York leads the series 2 games to 1

CLCS game 4:

Kuei-lin Hsi pitches for Newark vs Jaime Sanchez for Apex

Apex gets the lead 1-0 in the first but Newark comes back with 2 in the 5th and 1 in the 7th for a 3-1 lead. With the 2 run lead, Newark gets an insurance run on a Yin-fat Yang RBI double in the top of the 9th.

Only 3 outs away from the FOOL Classic, the Terriers bring Antonio Perez in to close out the game. He gets in trouble however as he gives up a double to Jesus Rivera and then after getting Joe Cannon out, gives up another double to Quinones to drive in a run. 4-2 lead now for Newark.

Cruden works the count full before drawing a walk and then Cardenas hits a single to load the bases with only one out!

Mike Griffith, the next hitter can not even get the ball out of the infield though as he pops up to the third baseman for the second out.

We come down to this.. Leonardo Perez now up to bat, the bases loaded but two outs. Newark is now one out away from the FOOL Classic. Perez receives the 3-1 pitch, swung on... and it gets between first and second for a single! One runner in... another scores and we're tied up 4-4 in the bottom of the 9th!

That is all for Perez as we will have a new relief pitcher, Juan Torres is in to pitch. Torres faces a pinch hitter, Marcos Duenas who hits a lazy popup that is caught by the second baseman.

We remain tied 4-4 and will head into extra innings!

In the top of the 10th, Newark goes down 1-2-3. It only takes one hitter in the bottom of the 10th to wrap this one up however as Xi-tong Huo hits a line drive shot over the right-center field fence. 372 feet solo walk off home run keeps Apex alive for another night!

Spoiler


Apex 5, Newark 4 (10 innings)

Newark leads the series 3 games to 1.

RLCS Game 4:

Alastair Coggins pitches for New York vs Mike Larson for Hartford

New York scores 1 in the first and then 6 more in the second as they run away with this one. Despite a huge lead, Coggins still pitched well for New York, going 8.2 innings, striking out 8 and giving up only 1 run on 2 hits.

The Heroes out hit Hartford 15 to 2 thanks in part to Gael Pichette who goes 3 for 3 with two doubles, a Home Run, 2 RBI, 3 Runs scored and 2 bases on balls.

Spoiler


New York 10, Hartford 1

New York leads the series 3 games to 1.

CLCS Game 5:

Lemieux pitches for Newark (1-0 3.00 ERA this postseason)
vs
Taylor for Apex (0-1 14.54 ERA this postseason)

Taylor did not pitch too well in game 1, but in a must win game for Apex, he gets some early run support. The Assassins manage to get to Lemieux for 1 run in each of the 2nd and 3rd innings, 2 more runs in the 5th and 3 more in the 5th.

Taylor strikes out an amazing 14 Terriers in an 8 inning 2-hit shutout performance to keep the Assassins alive for yet another game.

Spoiler


Apex 7, Newark 0

Newark leads the series 3 games to 2.

RLCS Game 5:

Moore pitches for New York (1-0 4.50 ERA this postseason)
vs
Rodriguez for Hartford (0-1 6.43 ERA this postseason)

Okamoto hits a 3-run Bomb in the top of the first, part of a 4 run inning to give New York the early lead. Hartford gets 1 back in the bottom of the inning and another in the third to cut it to a 4-2 lead. That is as close as they will get however as New York scores 5 more runs across the 4th, 5th and 6th innings to run away with this one.

On the day Okamoto goes 3 for 5 with a double, Home Run and 5 RBIs for New York in the win while Gustavo Hull has a great day for Hartford in the loss by hitting a perfect 4 for 4 with two doubles, a HR and 4 runs scored.

Spoiler


New York 10, Hartford 7


New York is the 2040 Republic League Champions!!

CLCS Game 6:

Caulfield pitches for Apex (0-0 1.80 ERA this postseason)
vs

Newark gets 2 in the second and another run in the third, but Apex comes back in the 4th inning on back to back Home runs from Quinones (a 2-run HR) and Curden (solo HR) to tie the game up 3-3!

That remains the score until the 8th when Mike Griffith comes through as the hero for Apex with a 2-run HR that ends up being the game winner! After being only 1 out away from a CLCS sweep, Newark now has to go to a deciding game 7 vs Apex!

Okamoto hits a 3-run Home Run in the top of the first which is part of a 4 run inning that gives New York an early lead. The Heroes score 3 more runs in the 5th and run away with this one from there.

Hitomaro Okamoto is the star of the game as he goes 2 for 5 with 2 Home Runs and 5 RBI. Pichette also chips in with a 3 for 5 performance including a double and solo home run as well.

The only run of the first 7 innings comes in the bottom of the 6th on a Hou Chen RBI single that gives the Terriers a 1-0 lead. Newark breaks it open in the bottom of the 8th however as they score 5 runs on 5 hits, including a bases loaded walk to Jud Wallace.

Lemieux logs crazy-8's as he strikes out 8 in 8 innings while giving up 8 hits to get the win.

New York gets 2 in the bottom of the 1st, but Newark takes the lead with 4 runs of their own in the 2nd inning. In the third, New York takes the lead back with 4 more runs to make it a 6-4 game.

Newark scores 1 in the 6th however and then in the 7th a Jud Wallace 2-RBI double puts Newark ahead for good 7-6.

Jasper Patterson pitches 6 innings of shutout 1-hit baseball in relief for Newark and picks up the win. The Terriers big bat is Juan Garcia who goes 3 for 4 with a HR and 2 RBI.

Newark 7, New York 6

Newark leads the series 2 games to 1.

Newark gets 3 runs in the 5th and 4 more in the 7th to take away a comfortable win in this one.

Hou Chen goes 4 for 5 with a HR and 2 RBI, Jud Wallace goes 2 for 4 with a GRAND SLAM HOME RUN in the 7th inning.

To make the ex-Rancheros trifecta complete, Ueda pitches 7.2 innings, giving up just 1 run on 7 hits to get the win.

Both pitchers are on top of their game in this one as it remains scoreless until the 7th inning. In the top of the 7th, Newark gets their first run on a wild pitch from Amstadter, then follow it with a second run on a RBI single from Luis Bloemheuvel.

For those not fluent in Dutch, his name means Flower Hill by the way!

Anyways, Amstadter pitches a complete game, striking out 6 and giving up only those 2 runs on 8 hits. Hsi one-ups him however with a complete game 3-hit shutout to give the Terriers the win!

Tuesday, October 30th, 2040: Terriers Hsi Silences New York
Kuei-lin Hsi dominated New York with a brilliant 3-hit shutout in the Terriers 2-0 triumph at Zion Stadium. The Newark hurler fanned 5 and walked 1 in the game.

Zuniga has struggled thus far this postseason for the Heroes, but New York will count on him to keep them in it one more game in a matchup of the two 2038 Prado Award winners.

Newark scores first with a single run in the bottom of the second inning, but New York gets it back in the third, plus they score another for good measure in the 5th innings. Newark then ties it up in the bottom of the 5th 2-2, which remains the score through 7 innings.

In the top of the 8th, New York scores three runs on a RBI single from Sicco, RBI double from Okamoto and RBI double from Pavlov's dog to go up 5-2. That is all that the Heroes need as Zuniga scatters 12 hits across 8 innings, but gives up only the two runs to get the win.

New York 5, Newark 2

Newark leads the series 4 games to 2

Newark once again takes the early lead by scoring 1 in the bottom of the second and then 2 more in the bottom of the 6th for a 3-0 lead. New York comes back however with 1 in the 7th and 2 in the 8th. The two teams remain tied up 3-3 through 9 innings and we head into extra innings!

In the top of the 13th inning, Newark brings in Javier Cruz to try to keep the Heroes from scoring. Cruz leads off with a walk to Okamoto and then a double to Mark Williams scores Okamoto all the way from first base! New YOrk takes a 4-3 lead!

Pavlov, Lucero and Rico all three ground out in a row to end the top of the 13th, but not before New York goes ahead in the game.

Rafael Lucero remains in the game to pitch for New York in the bottom of the 13th. He gets Tomlinson swinging to start the bottom half of the inning. Nishikawa then follows with a one-out single to try to get a rally going.

Burrow pops up however to the third baseman for out number two and then Hou Chen flies out to left field for the final out of the game. New York comes back to stay alive for yet another game!

Spoiler


New York 4, Newark 3 (13 innings)

Newark leads the series 4 games to 3

FOOL Classic game 8:

Ueda pitches for Newark (2-0 1.64 ERA this postseason)
vs
Moore for New York (2-1 7.29 ERA this postseason)


Newark called upon Ueda to win the deciding game 7 in the CLCS. They will go to the veteran 8 time all star once again to try to pull out the victory here.

Newark gets 2 in the top of the 1st but New York responds with 2 of their own in the bottom of the inning. Newark gets three more in the third inning, including a Gerard Burrow 2-run Home Run that gives the Terriers a 5-2 lead.

Naofumi Ueda once again comes through for Newark, pitching 8 innings, giving up just 2 runs on 7 hits as he gets the win.

Newark's big hitter of the game is Ronald England who goes 2 for 5 with a double and a solo home run in the 1st inning.

Spoiler


Newark 5, New York 2


The Newark Terriers are the 2040 FOOL Champions!!

This is a terrible song. But he says Jersey a lot, so..it's apt.


Newark's title in their 4th year of existence breaks the old expansion record to fastest team to a title. Columbus won their first title in '76, ten years after their first FOOL season. Newark tied the old record set by Compton in '69 for making the Classic in their 4th season, but that team didn't have to play an LCS to get there. (and of course, they lost in the 13th inning of Game 9 of the Classic to Brooklyn.)

I didn't dig into the history books to see if a team that lost 100 games had ever made the playoffs the following year, but...I think it's surely have had to have happened before, right? Someday I'll check. I'm pleased, because really I just wanted to win somewhere in the 5-year window.

Congrats to all the post-season teams and thanks to Alan for adding flair to the proceedings as always.
