Game 6 - Floyd v. Kuroda in game 2 rematch.
Padres jump out to another early lead in the top of the 1st. HanRam doubles and then
Nelson Cruz walks. Back to Back strikeouts by Morneau and Swisher nearly has Floyd out of
trouble. Thames singles to drive in HanRam - Runners on 1st and 3rd - Two out. Kinsler walks
to load the bases. Floyd throws a wild one and Cruz comes into score. But the threat ends
with a Ian Stewart K (Padres 2-0)
The pitchers dominate for the next 3 innings
Bottom of the 5th. Braves play small ball to get one run back. Gardner singles with 2
out, he steals 2nd and is driven home by a Hamilton double. (Padres 2 - Braves 1)
6th inning - Both teams go three up - three down
7th inning - 3 up/ three down
8th inning - Padres get two runners on board via walks but Braves get out of the inning
with a DP. Things fall apart for Padres bullpen in the bottom of the 8th. Burnett comes in
to start the inning. Gardner singles and steals 2nd. Hamilton reaches on infield single.
Braves have runners on 1st and 3rd with 0 outs and down by a run. Eric brings in Brandon
League and the infield in. Zimmerman grounds out to 3rd - Gardner stays put, and Hamilton
advances to 2nd. J Hey is intentionally walked to set up DP. JJ Hardy hits SF to plate
Gardner and tie up the game. Braves again have runners on 1st and 3rd with two out. Heyward
advances to second on defensive indifference as Braves try to get into a run down to have
Hamilton steal home. Bruce is walked intentionally to load the bases. Rickie Weeks singles
home Hamilton and Heyward to put the Braves up 4-2. Pudge singles to drive in Bruce to add
another insurance run. Uehara comes in to end the rally. (Braves up 5-2)
Top of the 9th - Braves Closer Wagner comes in to finish the game. Gets two quick outs.
Stubbs walks and Kinsler singles. On base machine Bonifacio comes up and Braves decide that
it is time to Fear the Beard. Brian Wilson comes in - Allows a single to Bonifacio - Stubbs
scores. But the Beard manages to K Buck to end the game (5-3) and series (4-2).
5 of the 6 games could have gone either way. Both teams had great starting pitching and
deep offenses. Braves probably had the advantage in the bullpen - we were able to hang in
until the offense started to wakeup.
