Bret Saberhagen got the start in game 6 in a must win game. We staked him to an early 2-0 lead, but in the 5th inning the bottom fell out. Nellie Fox committed 3 errors, Carlos Beltran made another error, and Saberhagen had a wild pitch. For those scoring at home that's 4 errors, 5 unearned runs, and we were down 5-2.

Nothing surprises me anymore with this game. The Pirates added another run in the 6th, but we came back and scored a pair of runs in the bottom of the sixth. Wally Joyner and Keith Lampard each singled home a runner in the 8th to tie the score, and after a scoreless inning we went into extra innings.

Rick Peters reached on an error, and Dave Heaverlo sacrificed him over to third. The Pirates intentionally walked Wally Joyner, and John Russell hit a ball to short and Peters beat the throw to the plate.

We live to fight another day! Game 7 tomorrow!
