[b:3f40d3d9ff]GotW #5: Chipmunks shut-out Hoosier Daddy... for [url=http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/2006/league/boxscore.html?group_id=286&g_id=490](3-0)[/url] the [url=http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/2006/league/boxscore.html?group_id=286&g_id=496](4-0)[/url] series [url=http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratomatic/2006/league/boxscore.html?group_id=286&g_id=502](11-0)[/url][/b:3f40d3d9ff]

This is a pretty cool story. The C'ville Chipmunks, sporting the worst record in the league at 31-50 (after a 2-16 start), swept 3 games from the Central Division-leading Hoosier Daddy [i:3f40d3d9ff]without giving up a single run[/i:3f40d3d9ff], and even [i:3f40d3d9ff][b:3f40d3d9ff]no-hit them in the first game[/b:3f40d3d9ff][/i:3f40d3d9ff] (Jake Peavy). The Chipmunks gave up only 9 hits for the series, and though they're still in last place, and the Hoosier Daddy are still in first, at least they were kings for a day. Here's your No-Prize!

Right fielder Geof Jenkins had a day hitters only dream of. He hits 4 consecutive solo home runs in the first 9 innings. Unfortunatley Geof grounds out in his only extra innings at bat; but luckily team pulls out victory in 12th for sweep of series.

4 straight Homeruns in the bottom of the first, then another 13 innings to finish the game, with...what else, a walk-off Homerun.

Talk about a drudging. Key performance: Sisco 12 runs in 2 2/3 innings.

Chone Figgins steals 6 bases in his teams 3 zip win. Unfortunately my team was on the receiving end of it.

Why managers have white hair.
Also note the top of the 5th.

That noted slugger himself, Ronnie Belliard, notches 10 RBI as my Clarkston Sluggers defeat the Violetville Volks Marchers 19-4. I didn't think it was possible to get 10 RBI in a game!
