It was as if it were 1998 again. Former stud turned bargain arm Kerry Wood turned in a flat-out dominating performance reminiscent of his younger days: 9 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 16 K, clinching the Championship for his team the Kylie's Kharma. You'll notice Tony Clark was in the opposing lineup - I'm not sure how that Clark-Wood matchup didn't result in a homerun every time; I guess it was just Kerry's night.
