I looked at the scores tonite(MY mouth wide open :shock: :shock: :shock: )....
The storybook of my 4 year SOM Career complete...
Last to 1st, make the Wildcard on the very last day of the season, sweep through the 1st round(opening on the road) against what I felt was the dominant team and felt lucky to be there...But only give up 1 run in the 3 game set. Whew!
Then have to open on the road again against the Questers, who I have had all sorts of matchup problems against during the regular season -Hoping to steal 1 of the 1st 2 so I can return to Shea with RJ, Lowry and Glavine again - hoping to take at least 2 of those...Expecting it to go 7 with RJ pitching the last game.
But something I have never been accustomed to the past 4 years occurs - the rolls of virtual dice go my way... :shock: :shock: :shock: And not only does my team pull out the 1st 2 games with the 3rd shutout of the postseason(All 3 assisted - no complete games) - But the pitching continues the hot streak - Combining for 2 more shutouts...
The line: 7 games, 7 wins, 5 shutouts(All assisted - no Complete games) .29 ERA, .79 WHIP, only 2 runs allowed... :shock: :shock: :shock:
Do you think this 87 Win team peaked at just the right time?
This team finished 10th in Batting, 6th in Pitching and had a Negative run differential of 29 runs...
THE POINT...
