If I lose this series, I will fire someone. I have my 2 best pitchers rested, and a 3-2 lead, short of some natural disaster this team should win this series.
Hugh Collins drilled a 3 run homer in the 1st and after scaping for a run in the 2nd we had a 4-0 lead and our ace on the bump.
3 outs later it was 4-4 as Stan Hall surrendered homers to Caden Haynes and Bill Hill and a run scoring 2B to Tetsui Ishida. We'd scrap for a run in the 3rd to take a 5-4 lead and George Knox hit his 4th playoff homer in the 4th to make it 6-4. Hall would hold through 6 (6-7-4-4-2-7) and Chance Holt, Jake Ellison and Masafumi Watanabe would throw 2 scoreless innings, 1 hit 3 K's, to get the game to Ernesto Cruz. Cruz retired the side in order in the 9th to send us to our 2nd consecutive and 4th total World Series.

And I have no clue how this ones going to end, just that whichever team wins it is going to be the WS favorite. Two STACKED teams going toe to toe.
A 1-1 game after 1, stayed tied until Chris Gray plated Jorge Ortiz with a 2 out single in the 4th to put Tulsa up 2-1. Both starters were tremendous, with Tim Sutherland managing to keep it 2-1 through 8, and handed the ball to Otto Hunter who worked around a leadoff single to retire the Patriots, and end the series.
