Showdown Cup Playoffs Game 4's

The tournament is getting tighter and tighter with the room for error shrinking as we enter what was one teams last game of the tournament and 3 teams pushing the series to a 5 and final decisive game. The Marlins scored 4 runs over the last two innings to secure a victory over the Yankees sending them to game 5. Randy Johnson took the mound for the Diamondbacks and again deliver a complete game shutout pushing this series to a 2-2 tie, its a shame for the D-backs that Johnson can't pitch in game 5, and a welcome sight for the Mariners I am sure, but Curt Schilling will take the mound in that final game. The Dodgers struck early with a grand slam in the first inning en route to a victory for Clayton Kershaw and this series will also see a fifth game. Finally the Cubs closed out the Red Sox tournament with a 2-0 1 hit victory for the Cubs. Now for the exciting part, we have three game 5's taking place tomorrow, who will survive and advance?

Player of the Day:

  3. Off topic, but any chance you'll post the 01 Mariners in the 00 style sine they seem to have been updated from this?: http://greatestmlbshowdown.blogspot.com/2017/03/2001-seattle-mariners.html

  4. Yeah they are saved in the drafts on here actually been waiting for David to publish them, usually he writes a lot better than I do with team descriptions so I was going to let him put his words on it
