2006 CFOD PLAYOFF PREVIEW Bakersfield RamJets (92-70, Mantle Division Winner) vs. Boston Brewins (92-70, MK Conference Wildcard) The RamJets make their 2nd straight playoff appearance, this time as the Mantle division winners. Longtime mainstay Miguel Tejada had a stellar year, hitting .348 with 25 home runs, 99 runs scored and 123 RBI. Gary Matthews hit .334 with 103 runs scored and 114 RBI. Mark Grudzielanek and Nick Punto were adept baserunners, scoring over 100 runs each while hitting above .300 (contact is something this team did well, their .294 average was easily best in the majors). Brad Penny (15-9, 3.21 ERA) and Matt Morris (18-7, 3.40 ERA) formed a solid 1-2 punch in the rotation. Closer JJ Putz's 3.63 ERA is a little high for a playoff bound team, but his 34 saves indicate he didn't have a problem closing out games. The Brewins did just fine without Albert Pujols anchoring the lineup as they won 92 games en route to a wildcard. His direct replacement, Justin Morneu, hit .333, with a .614 slugging average, 42 home runs, 120 runs scored and 129 RBI. Vernon Wells had 24 home runs, Corey Patterson 28, Bill Hall 32 and Ramon Hernandez 31 for this powerful lineup. 3B Troy Glaus hit 46 home runs with 121 RBI. Brandon Webb went 16-10, with 7 complete games. Josh Johnson posted a 3.05 ERA in 33 starts with 11 games won. The Brewins will also have Dontrelle Willis in the rotation, a late season acquisition who had a 2.96 ERA in 8 starts. Closer duties were split between Francisco Cordero and Dennys Reyes, who combined to save 35 games. In 9 regular season games, the RamJets narrowly defeated the Brewins 5 games to 4. The RamJets have home field advantage due to their pennant winning status. ******************************************************************* GAME ONE -- Brewins (Webb) at RamJets (Penny). Boston had Bakersfield's number, tagging them in the 4th & 8th with 2 run shows, and piled on 6 runs in the 9th for final effect. Aaron Guiel went 4 for 5 with 2 doubles, 2 home runs and 5 RBI as the Brewins defeated the RamJets 10-1 in game 1.

The RamJets cut the lead to 3 with a 2-run home run by Miguel Tejada in the bottom of the 4th. 5-3 Brewins after 4. The RamJets had a scoring opportunity in the 5th, loading the bases with 2 outs. But Gary Matthews grounded out, ending the inning without any additional score. The RamJets did shorten the lead in the 8th thanks to a Garrett Anderson RBI single. Boston maintained a 2 run lead heading into the bottom of the 9th. Jesse Crain was on the mound. Ivan Rodriguez struck out for out #1. Jay Payton singled, putting the tying run at the plate. Pinch hitter Jerry Owens hit a grounder to second, forcing Payton out and nearly causing a game ending double play had he not beat the throw to first. 2 outs, 1 on, and it was all up to Nick Punto. But Punto couldn't deliver the goods, grounding out to second to end the game. Boston hangs on to win game 2 by a score of 5-3, and the series heads back into Boston.
