Season 27 Wrap Up
For the third year in a row the World Series was decided in a Game 7, with the top-seeded AL Santa Fe Tigers (105-57) defeating the NL two seed St. Louis Jalowitzians (102-60) to claim kevinbigham's second World Series championship in Gehrig.
Santa Fe got off to a quick 2-0 lead in the Series by winning both home games, but the Jalowitzians bounced back and won the next two games in St. Louis by outscoring the Tigers 17-5. Santa Fe bounced back and stole Game 5 to give them a 3-2 Series lead. Despite a three-run lead in Game 6 at home, the Tigers gave up four runs in the top of the 7th inning and that was enough for the Jalowitzians to even up the Series at three games a piece. Unfortunately for St. Louis, Santa Fe's bats came alive in Game 7, pummeling the Jalowitzians pitchers for 19 runs and 20 hits. World Series MVP Marc Bennett (0.290 with 7 R, 11 RBI, 4 HR, and 1 SB) continued to cement himself as one of Gehrig's elite players.
Despite having a great run in the playoffs that saw St. Louis defeat the NL top-seed Fresno Mendozas to claim their second NL pennant in a row, the Jalowitzians fell again one win short of a title. Tigers GM franco8305 has assembled a strong squad and will undoubtedly have the Tigers fighting for another shot at a World Series championship soon enough.
On the other side, kevinbigham's squad has now racked up five consecutive 100+ win seasons and has shown no signs of slowing down.
Congratulations to kevinbigham on his second Gehrig World Series championship!
