The Left Outers have their work cut out for them! If they don't jump on Pittsburgh early and keep them down I can see a major upset happening here! Always exciting play, Ty!

The Left Outers are in serious trouble now, down 2-0 in the series! These guys are all HOFers, but the bullpen is just bad. I've started using Fergie Jenkins starting and relieving, along with Robin Roberts. Bob Lemon, Early Wynn and Herb Pennock just don't do well at all in any of the games I play.

An awesome game 4 that saw the Dead Ballers come back from a 6-0 deficit to win 7-6 in 12 innings, and take a three games to one lead in the series.
It was a devastating loss for the Old Timers. They scored three runs in the first and second innings off Eddie Plank, knocking him out of the game. They had seven hits off Plank, then just six more hits the next 10 innings against Jack Chesbro, Chief Bender and Joe McGinnity.
John Clarkson went five for the Old Timers, then Pud Galvin pitched four innings of relief. He allowed one run on two hits, that coming in the ninth when Joe Jackson hit a sacrifice fly to tie the game.

The Old Timers had a man at second base in the bottom of the 11th but didn't score. Tris Speaker and Bobby Wallace hit doubles in the 12th to give the Dead Ballers a 7-6 lead.
The last of the 12th saw Dan Brouthers lead off with a single, and Ed Delahanty follow with a base hit for runners at the corners and no outs. Sam Thompson fouled out to the catcher, and Buck Ewing grounded out with the infield in. McGinnity got a grounder to second from King Kelly to end the game.
