Check Pavlik's contract to make sure he isn't employed by Springfield. Pavlik was directly responsible for 2 runs in the first, loading the bases and then allowing 2 Isotope runs to score via wild pitches. Manhatten Beach tied it up in the bottom of the inning when Mark McGwire cleared the bases with a 2-RBI double. Dave Martinez took the Mashers ahead in the third with an RBI double, and Paul O'Neil hit a solo home run in the 5th to give Manhatten Beach a 4-2 lead after 5. In the top of the 7th, with runners at first and third, Mike Stanley hit a line drive single, scoring Juan Samuel from third. With 1 out and the bases loaded, Steve Reed balked, forcing a runner home and tying the game up at 4, with 3 of those Sprintfield runs courtesy of bad pitching mechanics of the Masher pitching staff. With 2 outs and runners at first and third in the bottom of the 8th, Tim Naehring came through big time, hitting a clutch single to score Mickey Morandini. 5-4 Mashers. Rickey Bottalico retired the Isotopes batters in order in the top of the 9th, without any balks or wild pitches. Manhatten Beach wins game 2 by a score of 5-4.

(Gubicza). Whoever won this game would have a leg up on making it to the world series. In the top of the 2nd with runners at first and second, Mickey Morandini singled, scoring Tony Eusebio from third. 1-0 Manhatten Beach. They scored another run in the 6th when a Troy O'Leary groundout allowed Mark McGwire to score. Things got bad for the Mashers in the 6th. With runners at first and third, Barry Bonds singled, scoring Mark Grace. Al Martin tied up the game with a single of his own. Scott Sanders came on in relief for Manhatten Beach. Did not help. Tim Wallach cleared the bases with a 2-RBI double. 4-2 Springfield. Rey Sanchez singled in Wallach, and Bernie Williams hit a 2 out double to score Sanchez as the Isotopes batting order each got an at bat (and then some) on their way to a 6 run inning. 6-2 Springfield. Tim Naehring singled in a run in the 7th inning to cut Springfield's lead to 3. Heading into the top of the 9th, Springfield's Eddie Guardado was on the mound. First batter up, Mike Simms, struck out. Eric Young smacked a 3-1 pitch into the gap, winding up on second base. With 1 out, Andujar Cedeno grounded out. 2 outs. Now it was up to Tim Naehring to get something going. And Naehring did all he could, hitting a 2-run home run and cutting Springfield's lead to 1. Kirk McCaskill was the new pitcher on the mound, trying to save the game for the Isotopes. Pinch hitter Kevin Jordan was at the plate. Would Jordan follow Naehring's example? Not today. Jordan grounded out, ending the game. Springfield hangs on to win game 5 by a score of 6-5.

Springfield wins this and they are world series bound. Manhatten Beach wins this and they force game seven. With runners at second and third and 2 outs, Al Martin singled. Mark Grace scored, but Mike Stanley's motors were not quite fast enough to score as well, and was thrown out at home. Dave Martinez grounded a single out with the bases loaded in the bottom of the inning to score a run, tying the game up at 1. In the second inning, with runners at second and third, Jason Bates grounded out, allowing Troy O'Leary to score and giving Manhatten Beach a 2-1 lead. In the bottom of the 5th, Dave Martinez was at the plate in another bases loaded opportunity, and drove in another run via a groundout. 3-1 Mashers. The game went into the top of the 9th with the Mashers still up 3-1. Rickey Bottalico was on the mound for Manhatten Beach. First batter up, Dave Silvestri, flied out. Pinch hitter Mark Whiten grounded out. Tommy Gregg singled to put the tying run at the plate. Would Bernie Williams be able to provide some last minute heroics? Not in game 6. Williams flied out, ending the game. Manhatten Beach wins game 6 by a score of 3-1, and force a final game seven to decide who goes to the world series.
