John Thomson and Brad Radke are both 2-0 in 3 starts. Closer Eric Gagne is 1-1 with 4 saves and a 1.23 ERA. Reliever Jason Isringhausen has appeared in 8 games, with no wins or saves but does sport a 2.45 ERA. Arizona has posted the 2nd best post-season ERA at 3.65 runs per game. The Cincinnati Rock won the MK conference wildcard and advanced to the world series on smart hitting and a top starting rotation. Starters Jake Westbrook, Roy Oswalt and Curt Schilling are a combined 6-2 with ERA's of 3.19 and below. Closer supreme Antonio Alfonseca has yet to allow a run and has 3 saves in 4 post-season appearances. Their 3.14 team post-season ERA is best among the playoff teams. On offense, 2B Mark Loretta is hitting .327 with 8 RBI in 12 games. Carl Crawford has a .333 on base average with 8 runs scored and 4 stolen bases. Jorge Posada is slugging .500 with 6 runs scored and 6 RBI. Larry Bigbie has been strong, hitting .385 with 7 runs scored and 7 RBI in just 8 games. In 4 regular season games, Arizona won the series 3-1. Arizona has home field advantage due to their pennant winning status. ******************************************************************* GAME ONE -- Rock (Schilling) at Thunder (Radke). It got really ugly really quick for Brad Radke. In the first, with 2 out and 1 on, Jorge Posada put the Rock on the board with an RBI single. Then Monroe took Radke deep for a 3 run homer. Then Russell Branyan hit a solo back-to-back home run off Radke. Then Carlos Pena hit a back-to-back-to-back solo home run. 6-0 Rock, and Radke lasted 1/3 of an inning. It seemed like the end for the Thunder, but they kept coming back. In the bottom of the first, Gary Sheffield hit a solo home run, and a Carlos Beltran triple followed by a Jim Thome sacrifice fly made it 6-2 Cincinnati. The lead narrowed to 3 runs thanks to a Beltran RBI single in the 3rd inning. In the bottom of the 5th, with the game 8-3 in Cincinnati's favor, the bases were loaded with Thunder batters. Carlos Beltran hit a sacrifice fly for one run. A walk to Casey Blake forced in another run. 8-5 Rock. Curt Schilling was done for the day, but the Thunder were not done scoring. Doug Mirabelli singled in another run to close the lead to 8-6. In the top of the 6th inning, the Rock added to their lead. With runners at first and third and 1 out, Carl Crawford hit into a potential inning ending double play. But Crawford's speed was great, made it to first in time and allowed the runner at third to score. 9-6 Cincinnati. The game progressed to the 9th inning still at 9-6. Alfonseca was on the mound for the Rock. Carlos Beltran got a leadoff single, and 2 wild pitches moved him to 3rd. The running wasn't necessary, as Jim Thome took Alfonseca deep. 2 run shot, and Cincinnati's lead was a single run. Blake and Mirabelli grounded out to put 2 outs on the board. Jimmy Rollins walked to put the winning run, pinch hitter Russ Adams, at the plate. But the comeback would end there, as Adams flied out for the final out of the game. Cincinnati holds on to win game 1 by a score of 9-8. ROCK LEADS 1-0. 10/24/2005, CIN04-ARZ04, Bank One Ballpark 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E LOB DP 2004 Rock 6 0 0 2 0 1 0 0 0 9 11 0 3 1 2004 Thunder 2 0 1 0 3 0 0 0 2 8 12 2 9 0 Rock AB R H BI D T HR BB K SB

Early in the game both starters held the other side hitless and showed dominance. In the bottom of the 2nd, John Thomson, walked 3 straight batters (no hits) with 0 outs. Then he struck out Russell Branyan, got Jeter to pop out, and got Zambrano to ground out without the Rock scoring a run. 0-0 after 2. It was the top of the 3rd inning before either side got a hit. Jimmy Rollins hit a single to break the stretch. Luis Castillo hit the 2nd single of the game, and Rollins advanced to third. Thomson hit into a double play, but with 0 outs it allowed Rollins to score. 1-0 Arizona. Jim Thome hit a solo home run in the 4th for a 2-0 Arizona lead. The Rock got their first hit of the game in the 4th inning. Monroe doubled, followed by Carlos Pena RBI double to make the score 2-1. Cincinnati tied it up with a Derek Jeter single, and Jeter put Cincinnati ahead in the 6th with a solo shot off of Jason Isringhausen. Cincinnati 3-2 after 6. The Thunder offense has been quite potent this series, and they reminded the Rock of this in the 8th inning. With 2 on and 0 outs, Gary Sheffield hit an RBI double to tie it up at 3. Zambrano was done for the day. But the hit parade continued. Beltran cleared the bases with a 2 run double. Arizona takes the lead, 5-3. Then Jim Thome clears the bases completely, belting a 2-run homer. 7-3 Arizona. Casey Blake added insult to injury with a solo home run. The Thunder power their way to a 8-3 victory in game 3.

******************************************************************* GAME FOUR -- Thunder (Burnett) at Rock (Westbrook). Cincinnati was going for an evening of the series, while the Thunder were looking to give themselves a comfortable series lead. Arizona jumped out in front early, with Jimmy Rollins hitting an RBI single in the 2nd and Carlos Beltran tabbing a sacrifice fly in the 3rd. Larry Bigbie hit a single with 2 outs and runners at first and third in the bottom of the 3rd, closing Arizona's lead to 1. But the Arizona scoring machine kept churning. Casey Blake walked in a bases loaded situation in the 5th, adding another run, and Gary Sheffield blasted a 3-run shot in the 6th, putting the game out of reach. Arizona wins game 4 by a score of 6-3, and are 1 win away from clinching the CFOD world championship.

******************************************************************* GAME FIVE -- Thunder (Radke) at Rock (Schilling). Cincinnati needed to win this one to stay in the series. The Thunder drew first blood with a solo shot by Jim Thome in the 2nd. In the third, Thome struck again, this time an RBI single that scored Carlos Beltran. Arizona made it 3-0 in the 6th with a solo home run by Mirabelli. In the 7th, Beltran hit a single with runners at first and third, scoring another run. Jim Thome made it pretty much official for the game, series and season with a 3-run shot. 7-0 Thunder. In the bottom of the 9th, with 2 outs and the Thunder leading 8-1, reliever Scott Eyre got Carlos Pena hit a grounder to Ben Broussard at first. Broussard flipped the ball to the approaching Eyre, and just like that, the Arizona Thunder were champions. Arizona wins game 5 by a score of 8-1, and clinch their first ever CFOD world championship. THUNDER WINS 4-1, 2004 CFOD CHAMPIONS. 2004 PLAYOFF MVP: Several candidates on the Thunder. The first possibility was closer Eric Gagne, who went 1-1 with 5 saves and a 1.08 ERA in 7 appearances. But given their high octane offense, it was only natural that a hitter get it. Lance Berkman (.390 on base average, 17 runs scored) and Gary Sheffield (.319 average, 19 runs scored) provided run scoring abilities, and Jim Thome (.872 slugging, 8 homers, 20 RBI) knocked them in, but the playoff MVP, Carlos Beltran, did them both. Beltran hit .397 during the playoffs, with a .824 slugging average, 21 runs scored and 21 RBI in 16 games. 10/29/2005, ARZ04-CIN04, U.S. Cellular Field 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E LOB DP 2004 Thunder 0 1
