                                                                    Game 1: The Babe's Sim Season debut was disappointing...4 innings pitched with 6 hits allowed and one
                                                                    batter hit by a pitch.  Wahoo Sam Crawford, however, lived up to his billing.  He drew cheers from the
                                                                    opening day crowd with three hits and two diving catches in the outfield.  Ed Killian held the Sox scoreless
                                                                    through 5, then gave way to Wild Bill Donovan with two runners on in the 6th.  Boston scored two to tie the
                                                                    game, but their weak bullpen allowed four more runs, with Vean Gregg allowing 1 and Sad Sam Jones 3.

                                                                    Game 2: Ed Summers gave up a double and 4 singles in the Boston half of the 3rd and by the time
                                                                    reliever George Suggs could put out the fire, the Red Sox led 6-0.  Dutch Leonard allowed a run in
                                                                    the fifth, cancelled out by Harry Hooper's RBI triple in the sixth.  By the eighth inning, Boston led 7-1 and
                                                                    the stage was set for another bullpen collapse.  Weldon Wyckoff surrendered 2 runs in the eighth and Rube
                                                                    Foster allowed 3 in the ninth, but Boston held on for their first victory.

                                                                    starter George Mullin gave up 3 singles and a walk in the top of the eighth.  Wild Bill Donovan once
                                                                    again came to the rescue for the Tigers, but not before the score was tied.  Meanwhile, Boston was on
                                                                    its fourth pitcher of the day, Vean Gregg.  Once again Boston's bullpen was its undoing, as Gregg allowed
                                                                    a walk and 2 singles.

                                                                    1968 St. Louis Cardinals at 1963 Los Angeles Dodgers   Dodger Stadium    October 14, 2001

                                                                    Game 1: Gibson vs. Koufax.  This kind of matchup is the reason I play these silly games.  Koufax started
                                                                    strong, retiring the first six Cardinal batters, but faltered in the third when a misplay by Maury Wills gave
                                                                    St. Louis an extra out.  By the sixth, Koufax was running on fumes, and was lifted with two outs and
                                                                    runners on second and third.  Gibson was dominant, giving up one run in 7 2/3.  At one point he retired
                                                                    12 Dodgers in a row.  Pete Mikkelsen induced Tommy Davis to ground out with the tying run on second base
                                                                    in the eighth, and Joe Hoerner pitched the ninth to earn the save.

                                                                    Game 2: The first extra-inning game of the season was a back-and-forth affair marred by an ejection of
                                                                    Don Drysdale.  With the Cards ahead 2-0 in the third, Dodger Don went to work on home plate umpire
                                                                    Bill Klem.  Klem didn't care to hear the pitcher's opinion on his strike zone, and Ken Rowe was summoned
                                                                    from the bullpen.  After a Johnny Roseboro RBI single, a Stan Javier double and a 2-run homer by Frank
                                                                    Howard, the score stood at 3-3.  LA took the lead in the 7th with a manufactured run: Wills single and stolen
                                                                    base, Junior Gilliam sacrifice, and a ground ball to first by Tommy Davis.  But the Cards came right back
                                                                    in the 8th, taking advantage of back-to-back walks by Rowe.  A Javier triple in the top of the ninth made it
                                                                    5-4 Cards.  But in the bottom half, Javier threw away a grounder off the bat of pinch-hitter Nick Willhite,
                                                                    who scored on a Maury Wills single.  The score stayed knotted until the 11th, when another pinch-hitter,
                                                                    Nate Oliver, reached on an error by Tim McCarver.  Maury Wills delivered again, ending the contest with
                                                                    a walk-off RBI single.

                                                                    the big blow for the Cards: a 3-run dinger in the 8th.  Ed Roebuck served up the gopher ball for the loss.

                                                                    Game 1: You might expect the '61 Yanks to belt 3 homers on opening day, but you wouldn't expect

                                                                    then piled it on, punishing 5 different Cleveland pitchers.  The Indians offense stranded 12 runners,
                                                                    unable to capitalize on 8 walks and 2 errors.

                                                                       Game 3: This seesaw game ended with a walkoff single by a pinch-hitting pitcher.  Chicago
                                                                        tied the game on a Johnny Evers RBI single in the top of the eighth, and it looked like it
                                                                        could go to extra innings.  But Harry Steinfeldt bobbled a grounder, allowing Art Devlin to
                                                                        reach safely to start off the last of the ninth.  Devlin stole second and went to third on a sac
                                                                        fly by Bill Dahlen.  With the pitchers' spot up, John McGraw sent reliever Hooks Wiltse up
                                                                        to the plate.  Wiltse rapped a single to right, fleetfooted Devlin scampered home, and the
                                                                        Giants had won the opening series.  3 down, 159 to go.
