Subject: Milwaukee v. Chicago ALCS

The Brewers and White Sox went head to head in the five game series that put the defending World Series Champion White Sox against the surprising Brewers.  Interestingly, these teams did a blockbuster deal right before the deadline, as Milwaukee sent Tom Seaver to the Sox for Floyd Bannister, in a trade that helped both teams.

 

Game 1

 

White Sox sent Lamar Hoyt to the mound opposed by the Brewers Don Sutton.  The teams traded single solo shot homers in the second, and that would set the tone for the rest of the game.  The Sox picked up a solo run in the top of the fourth, but the Brewers answered with two in the bottom of the frame to take a 3-2 lead.  In the sixth, the Sox chased Sutton with three runs thanks to three singles and a double by Bill Russell.  George Frazier would replace Sutton and end the inning.  The Brewers would answer however with two of their own in the bottom of the frame to tie the game at five.  In the 8th, the Sox would add a run off Pete Ladd to take a 6-5 lead, and would add one more in the top of the 9th to take a 7-5 lead into the bottom of the 9th.  The Brewers put the first two men on with a hit and a hit by pitch.  After a failed bunt by Mark Brouhard, Jim Gantner stood in against Tom Burgmeier and delivered a perfect hit and run that scored a run.  Paul Molitor followed with another single to tie the game, and then Jose Cruz singled home Gantner giving the Brewers the 8-7 victory.  The win went to Steve Howe, and Burgmeier picked up the loss.

 

Game 2

 

Tom Seaver went for the Sox, while the Brewers sent Floyd Bannister and again it was a back and forth kind of game.  The Sox scored two runs in the first thanks to a Carlton Fisk homer, and had loaded the bases with two outs but couldn’t get any more runs.  Bannister was wild all day long walking seven and the Sox took advantage.  The Brewers picked up a run in the second, and then took the lead with two runs in the bottom of the 4th off Seaver thanks to homers by Cecil Cooper and Ted Simmons.  Bannister however gave it right back in the top of the fifth as the Sox got a run.  The Brewers finally chased Seaver in the bottom of the 7th by scoring two runs to give them a 5-3 lead, as Jose Cruz singled home two with two outs.  Pete Ladd pitched a scoreless 8th, but got into trouble in the 9th.  A walk, a single and a wild pitch put runners on 2nd and 3rd, and Fisk brought them home with a single tying the game.  Steve Howe closed out the 9th, but the game was headed for extra innings.  The Sox didn’t score in the 10th, and in the bottom of the 10th, a lead off single by Paul Molitor put the winning run on base.  After Ned Yost failed to get down the sacrifice, Cecil Cooper delivered a two run homer off lefty Willie Hernandez to give the Brewers the 7-5 victory and a 2-0 lead heading to Chicago .

 

Game 3

 

First off, thanks to Hamachi (a great tool for those that have problems connecting to netplay)!  The Sox sent Alejandro Pena against Fergie Jenkins for the Brewers.  The Sox didn’t waste any time scoring two runs in the bottom of the 3rd as John Lowenstein’s double scored two runs thanks to a throwing error on Jose Cruz.  In the bottom of the sixth, the Sox put the game away, a homer by Jerry Harrison following a single scored two runs, and then Carlton Fisk homered to give the Sox a 5-0, and knocking Jenkins out of the game.  Pena was in complete control for the Sox, scattering seven hits over nine innings.  The Brewers broke up his shut out bid in the top of the 9th, but that was the only bright spot for the Brewers as the Sox went on to win 6-1.

 

Game 4

 

A rematch of game one starters Hoyt and Sutton, and this time the Brewers wasted no time scoring runs as they scored three runs in the first inning off Hoyt, two of which came off the bat of Cecil Cooper.  The Brewers would then add two more runs in the 4th, thanks to a Jim Gantner two run shot that chased Hoyt.  Tom Burgmeier relieved Hoyt, but in the 5th, the Brewers added two more runs to lead 7-0.  In the bottom of the 5th, the Sox answered scoring three runs, all with two outs, after a lead off single, Hairston and Fisk doubled home runs and Mike Jorgenson added another.  Sutton got out of the inning leading 7-3.  In the top of the 7th the Brewers put the game away, with two outs, Greg Brock hit a two run homer off Ron Reed to give the Brewers the 9-3 lead, they would add another run in the 10th, as Pete Ladd got the final six outs to send Milwaukee to the World Series for the first time in franchise history.

 

Thanks to Ben for being gracious in defeat, we were able to work through some connections issues, but it all went smoothly, and we netplayed the games, clearly the best way to go.

 

Also, for those of you who haven’t heard about this site, I’d strongly encourage you to get the demo of Hamachi, it was totally simple and we connected easily without any problems.  Here is the thread in SOM Forum:
