Well, it was a great regular season for the Indians, who had KOD's best
record. But with all their energies devoted to the season, the Indians
didn't have much left in the tank to face the Yankee's Murderers' Row
lineup.
Game One was close but the next two saw the Yankees' turn up the jets offensively and easily perform a tomahawk chop to the solar plexis of the Tribe team. The Yankees win the series, 3-0.
Game One: Bob Feller and Waite Hoyt hold a pitching clinic, with Feller striking out 10. But with a 2-0 lead for the Indians, the Yankees dented his armor slightly, tying the score late on a Lou Gehrig homer and a Tony Lazzeri run-scoring triple.
Tied at two apiece in the top of the 12th, Joe Dugan doubled to lead off the inning. ManagerYankees 3, Indians 2 (12)
Game Two: The
only good news for the Indians is that they had 12 hits off Yankees'
starter Herb Pennock. But the bad news is that they only scored four
runs, while their pitching was a sieve. Starter Al Milnar ended up
allowing eight runs in 6.2 innings, as the Yankees exploded for a seven
run seventh to break it open. The long inning included four doubles and
three singles, including a three run double from Mark Koenig that
opened the door for the rout. Yankees 10, Indians 4.
Game Three: There was some hope for the Indians in this one. The Yankees went up 5-2 early with a three run fifth off Indians starter Al Smith, including back-to-back-to-back singles in the inning. But in the top of sixth, Jeff Heath belted a three run home to tie the game at five.
However,
the Yankees weren't done scoring, coming back for three in the bottom
of the sixth that included a bases clearing double from Tony Lazzeri to make
it 9-5. Unfortunately for Cleveland fans, the Indians were cooked after
that and couldn't muster much of a rally. Yankees 9, Indians 6. The AL championship will be a great matchup between 39 Cleveland and 26 New York. I expect a lot of offense in this one.
An exciting season of KOD 22 is over for me. I enjoyed the games and company. See you all in KOD 23.

brought in Joe Dobson and then Johnny Allen to attempt to put out the
fire. But they just ignited the flames, as Allen walked in the winning
run with two outs. Game One was close but the next two saw the Yankees' turn up the jets offensively and easily perform a tomahawk chop to the solar plexis of the Tribe team. The Yankees win the series, 3-0.
