RESULTS: ROUND 1 - REGION 1:

8) 1994 Montreal Expos vs. 9) 1949 Boston Red Sox

The matchup in game 1 is Ken Hill getting the nod over Pedro for Montreal, and he will be opposed by Mel Parnell the Boston ace. This is the first post-season game either of these teams will get to play. Both teams went back and forth with Boston scoring two early runs, before Montreal took a 3-2 lead in the mid innings. After Boston tied it again in the 7th, 3-3, they blitzed reliever Tim Scott for six in the 8th and went on to take game 1 by a score of 9-3. Ted Williams drove in three in this one.

The second time Pedro has appeared in our tournament thus far, this version being the young star still breaking out, and he gets to face his future team. Each team plated a pair of runs in the 4th, and it stayed 2-2 until the 8th when Montreal’s Larry Walker hit a 2-run double to break the tie. The Expos would add another, and John Wetteland would come on to save the game and tie the series.

Game 3 moves us to Boston, and sees Jeff Fassero face Joe Dobson. Another back and forth affair with three lead changes, saw Boston eventually come out on top 8-6. Dom DiMaggio hit two homers and Ted Williams added another.

Game 4 saw Ted Williams hit another homer, and Chuck Stobbs come up big, holding Montreal to three hits and no runs over 6.1 ip. The bullpen held on from there to complete the shutout and the Red Sox take a commanding series lead with a 4-0 final.

Red Sox ace Mel Parnell was not going to let a chance to close the series at home go by. He ran into some trouble in the 6th but otherwise was fantastic. Bobby Doerr’s tiple gave the Red Sox the lead for good and the bullpen again held on giving up no runs. The game finished 5-3 and the series is done in five.

The series MVP was 2B Bobby Doerr who in addition to the series winning hit had 9 others, for a .526 average, with 7 rbis and 6 runs. Dom DiMaggio hit .476 with a pair of homers, and Ted Williams drove in 7 runs. The lineup is going to be difficult to contain it appars, just as in real life. The Red Sox will now meet their Yankee rivals in the next round, with brothers DiMaggio squaring off, and Ted Williams and Joltin Joe meeting again as well.
