MLB 2020: We'll Play Ball, I Guess.

[SJHovey]

Based on how they actually pitched in 82. He didnt start either playoff series.

Didn’t start ALCS because they were 3 up on Baltimore with 4 to play heading into the doubleheader against the Orioles the final Friday. Vuckovich was tabbed to finish them off. Also pitched deciding game 5 of ALCS so couldn’t start WS.

Strawberry, Mets Sink Brewers Again in Game 2
With right fielder Darryl Strawberry leading the charge, the New York 1988 Mets defeated the visiting Milwaukee 1982 Brewers, 8-4, in Game 2 of their playoff series today. Strawberry went 1 for 2 with a home run and 2 walks. He drove in 3 runs and scored once at Shea Stadium to help New York 1988 take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-7 series.

Making an impact for the home team was David Cone. In the bottom of the sixth, the 1994 Pitcher of the Year Award winner had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. That made the score 5-3, Mets.

"The rain was definitely not preferable," Strawberry said. "It worked out fine I guess, but we'll be happy if we see the sun next time."

Game 3 is set to be played in Milwaukee. The scheduled starters for the game are Ron Darling for New York 1988 and Pete Vuckovich for Milwaukee 1982.

Yea i understood the WS one. I obviously didnt dig through regular season to guess a managers decisions.

But he's still lined up to pitch twice if needed.

I also already know the outcome of the series. I play them all at once so that i get series MVP and cumulative stats. Just saving the outcomes for maybe 2 posts a day. So it's not overwhelming to read.

Mets Hammered by Molitor, Drop Game 3 to Brewers
The Milwaukee 1982 Brewers have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading New York 1988 Mets, winning 11-6 at County Stadium today. Brewers third baseman Paul Molitor was named player of the game after he went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. The win cuts the deficit facing the Brewers to 2-1 in the best-of-7 playoff series.

The Brewers took a 4-0 lead in the bottom of the second inning. Facing New York 1988 hurler Ron Darling with two outs, Molitor hit a 3-run home run.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Molitor.

Game 4 is set to be played tomorrow at County Stadium. The scheduled starters for the game are Dwight Gooden for the New York 1988 Mets and Moose Haas for the the Milwaukee 1982 Brewers.

If they had ever wanted an excuse to fire him that would stand up to a union protest, that was it. I guess they don't want him gone.

Host Brewers Drop Pivotal Game 5, Now Trail Series 3-2
Game 5 was big. So was David Cone.

The New York 1988 starter rose to the occasion at County Stadium today, earning player of the game honors after leading the Mets to a crucial 7-1 victory over the Milwaukee 1982 Brewers. Cone threw 7 innings of 4-hit ball as the Mets won on the road to seize a 3-2 lead in the best-of-7 series.

Cone was effective for New York 1988, seldom allowing the Brewers to square up a pitch. The right-hander tossed 98 pitches over 7.2 innings. He limited Milwaukee 1982 to just 1 run on 4 hits.

"David did a tremendous job," said New York 1988 manager Jim Smith.

Game 6 is set to be played Saturday at Shea Stadium. Slated to start are Don Sutton for Milwaukee 1982 and Ron Darling for New York 1988.

Not sure what's the greater feat? Ellis while tripping on LSD or David Wells while drunk?
