******************************************************************* GAME THREE -- Moshers (Cain) at Syndicate (Haren). The teams remained evenly matched in the early innings, battling to a 2-2 tie after 4 innings. In the 8th inning with 1 out, Landon Powell broke the deadlock with a solo home run. 3-2 Syndicate. Jonathan Broxton pitched the top of the 9th with a 1 run lead. Seattle put themselves in excellent position to tie the game when Hunter Pence wound up on 2nd thanks to a fielding error by Justin Upton. But the Moshers could not capitalize, as Broxton proceeded to strikeout Miguel Olivo, Lyle Overbay and Wilson Valdez to end the game. The Syndicate wins game 3 by a score of 3-2, and are a win away from their second consecutive CFOD championship.

(Sabathia) at Syndicate (Greinke). Each ace had a different objective in game five. Sabathia was trying to keep the Moshers' season alive, Greinke was trying to guide the Syndicate to their second consecutive championship. In the bottom of the 2nd inning, Aaron Hill singled, scored on a double by Adam Dunn, who himself scored on a double by Nick Markakis. In the top of the 5th, Michael Young singled, moved to third on a single by Dave Murphy, and scored on a Hunter Pence single. Miguel Olivo tied the game up at 2 with a single. In the 7th inning, Adam Dunn gave the Syndicate the lead once again with a 2-run home run. 4-2 Syndicate after 7. The Syndicate went into the top of the 9th with the game still 4-2 in their favor. Jonathan Broxton was on board with a 2 run lead. The first batter up, Grady Sizemore, singled. Michael Young tied up the game with a 3-2 home run swing. 4-4 tie ballgame. The Syndicate would not score in the bottom of the inning, so we would go into extra innings. In the top of the 10th, Lyle Overbay walked, Justin Maxwell flied out, and Asdrubal Cabrera killed the inning with a double play. The Syndicate went to bat in the bottom of the inning with the game tied at 4. The first batter up, 2008 Syndicate playoff hero Nick Markakis, walked. Raul Chavez bunted Markakis to second. 1 out. Geovany Soto grounded out, moving Markakis to third. 2 outs, winning run at third. Now it was up to Franklin Gutierrez. Gutierrez, who was drafted by the Moshers in 2007, and re-drafted by the Syndicate in 2008. Gutierrez, who hit just .245 in the regular season. Gutierrez, who picked the right time to come through for his team, hitting a single, scoring Markakis from third and clinching the championship for the Syndicate. The Syndicate wins game 5 of the CFOD World Series by a score of 5-4, and win their 2nd straight (and 3rd overall) CFOD championship. SYNDICATE WINS 4-1, 2009 CFOD CHAMPS! 2009 PLAYOFF MVP: The Syndicate had several candidates. Adam Dunn was a monster on offense, hitting .375 with a 1.042 slugging average, 10 home runs, 17 runs scored and 22 RBI in 17 games. Troy Tulowitzki hit .300 with 16 runs scored in 17 games But the playoff MVP this year goes to Zack Greinke. Greinke averaged nearly 8 innings per appearance with a 2.09 ERA in that span and went 3-0. Greinke also averaged over 9 strikeouts per appearance. 10/22/2009, SEA09-MEC09, Rogers Centre 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 R H E LOB DP 2009 Moshers 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 2 0 4 7 0 3 1 2009 Syndicate 0 2 0 0 0 0 2
