The banged up 82 Brewers got to the 07 Rockies in the 7th putting up a four spot on a Robin Yount 2 run triple & RBI double from Ben Oglivie.
Milwaukee remained unbeaten as Rollie Fingers earned his second save fanning Matt Holliday with the tying runs on base.
Colorado moves to the loser bracket

Fisk would be awesome!

I cannot explain why my dice don’t like Aroldis Chapman. New season, bullpen woes remain.

I'm clearly driving people insane here so I will give the answer now just in case I don't get the chance to post today. Whoever was responsible for bringing the scorebook forgot to do so, but they played anyway. @alexanderraine7.bsky.social @tabletopmania.bsky.social @apbamlb1987.bsky.social

I don't think I've ever, in 55 years of APBA, seen a doubleheader like this one. Cubs did score a lot of runs that year. Reds' bad relievers got some innings.

🤷‍♂️

a gray and white cat is stretching on a cardboard box . ALT: a gray and white cat is stretching on a cardboard box .

According to Cool Papa Bell (HOF) himself, he once stroked five hits and stole five bases in a single game. Why, according to Bell, did this unparalleled feat never enter the official records?

On your mark, get set ... GO.

RED-HOT TIGERS SHUT DOWN NINTH-INNING RALLY, TOP BRAVES, 5-4

Fred Hutchinson won his 13th game (tying for tops in league) and went the distance, escaping a 1-out, 1st-and-3rd jam in 9th. C Walker Cooper helped, nailing Silvio Garcia attempting to steal second. Tigers have won 13 of 16. #1947League

...Sanderson, who allowed only 2 earned runs on 6 hits over 6.

Down 2, the Cubs sent 8 to the plate in the 2nd and scored 4 on doubles by Jerry Mumphrey and Shawon Dunston. NY clawed out 1 unearned run after that but Lee Smith closed out the 9th for the 2nd day in a row and his 9th save overall.

CUBS HIBERNATION OVER?, 4-3
The Mets probably rolled into Chicago having wrested first place from the stubborn Pirates, going 8 and 2 in their last 10 but then ran into the last place Cubs who took their 2nd in a row from New York behind a workman like effort from Scott...

HAV: Alejandro Oms injured his shoulder in the first inning and will miss 12 days. Fredi Gonzalez has called up Yoenis Cespedes.

‘39?

I know he had a couple of astounding years and I'm pretty sure 1937 was one of them so I'll go with that.

Picking up on yesterday's #1947League trivia question: Cool Papa Bell (HOF) got his nickname as a very young player (back when he was still a pitcher) because he refused to be intimidated while pitching to Oscar Charleston (HOF).

JOSH GIBSON HOMER WINS IT FOR WEST ALL-STARS

Pretty easy call for MVP. The big guy went 2-4 and launched the 3-run moon shot that broke a 4-4 tie. Satchel Paige yielded the HR, took the L. Leon Day: 3 hitless innings of relief, W. Ed Klieman earned the save. #1947League #baseball
