FLB Playoff Games: Divisional Series Game 5
12 years ago
General
Greetings FLB Fans!
Nothing adds more tension than the final game of a series- where it's been a hard fought battle to see who will pull it off. Especially with a battle like the CHA/HAW series has been, which saw the Tikis scratch out to a Game 5 even when they were on the brink.
Game Log and Box Score: https://sites.google.com/site/furry.....playoffs/oct-4
It was an old school baseball game in The Swamp, full of small ball and speed rather than relying on the long ball. The Tikis managed to knock starter Ginger Thompson (CHA/SP/Calico Cat) out of the game and jumped to an early 5-1 lead, from the bottom of the fifth on, it was all Swamp Foxes. Bolstered by a relief corps who had a massive chip on their shoulder from giving up two straight one-run games to bring them to this position, the Foxes got to work. First was two runs in the fifth inning, as Marcos Herrera (CHA/RF/Cheetah) pounced on a fielding error to score and spark a mini rally and then in the seventh where clutch baserunning by Herrera again allowed a three-run rally that allowed the Foxes to lock down. Juanita Olivares then locked down for the win, bearing down on the promise she made to make up for the meltdown of game 4. All in all the Swamp Foxes got to celebrate joining their Eastern Division rivals for the Wild World Series.
Which brings us to the Wild World Series- Set for Sunday:
New Orleans Pelicans
vs
Charleston Swamp Foxes
Congratulations to both teams for making it this year!

Phew! What a comeback! Swamp Foxes are a resilient team, though. They proved that this year!
