We often remember managers for the decisions when the spotlights are the greatest, and the Simulated World Series offers up exactly that spotlight.

With Steve Carlton, the Semi-final Series MVP cruising after 8 innings, Lou Pinella was faced with his first major decision of the night. Carlton had allowed just one run on 5 hits so far, and the 8, 9, and 1-hitters were due up for Performance Enhancers. With his entire bullpen at his disposal, Pinella could call on any arm, or let Carlton finish what he started.

He opted to send Carlton out for ninth.

Charlie Gehringer opened the ninth with a line drive single to left, and then Jon Stewart sent up Luis Gonzalez as a pinch hitter for Roger Clemens. And Gonzalez hit a game-tying, two-run homer to left. Carlton would face just one more batter - giving up a single to Chipper Jones - before getting pulled, and giving way to Jim Kern. Kern would get Joe Mauer to ground out, but would give up an RBI double to Lou Gehrig that gave Performance Enhancers their first lead of the day.

Stewart made the obvious call in the bottom of the ninth, calling on the MVP of his semifinal series, Eric Gagne. Gagne walked a pair and made it interesting, ut also struck out a pair, and got Barry Bonds to fly out and end the game. And with that, game one went to the Performance Enhancers.

stone temple seattle pilots took a lead in the second inning, as Mike Piazza hit a two-run single to punish Clemens for issuing two walks and loading the bases, but a 6-4-3 double play from Rogers Hornsby kept the inning from being a huge inning for the pilots.

Performance Enhancers got on back in the 7th, though not from their own doing. George Sisler lead off with a single, but Clemens was hit by a pitch and Chipper Jones walked with one-out, before another walk to Joe Mauer brought home a run.

Piazza added another RBI in the 8th to stretch the pilots lead to 3-1, as he collected two hits and drove in three runs on the night.

Carlton's final line was eight innings pitched, 4 runs allowed on 8 hits with 8 strikeouts. Kern pitched an inning, giving up two hits, allowing an inherited runner to score, but giving up no runs of his own.

Clemens pitched eight innings, allowing three runs on 9 hits and striking out 7, while Gagne had a hitless inning and struck out a pair.

Charlie Gehringer collected three hits for the Enhancers.

Player of the Game: Luis Gonzalez

Final Score: Enhancers 4, pilots 3

Win: Clemens '90

Loss: Carlton

Save: Gagne

The Performance Enhancers lead the Best-of-Seven Series 1-0.

Welcome to the Simulated World Series. Game Two is being held in the Kingdome, in Seattle, Washington.

Walter Johnson knew that he couldn't let his team drop the first two games at home.

So he did what Walter Johnson does - dominated.

Johnson needed just 95 pitches to post a complete game shutout and even the series at one game a piece.

It was almost - almost - an effort in vain.

Tom Seaver took a four-hit shutout into the 7th inning. But, he issued free passes to Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle, sandwiched around a single to Honus Wagner. That loaded the bases, and another walk - this time to Barry Bonds - brought home the first (and, it would prove, game winning) run of the game. A John Olerud single scored two more, and ended the night for Seaver, though relief pitcher Keith Foulke would allow both inherited runners to score, first on an RBI single from Mike Piazza and then an on RBI groundout from Rogers Hornsby.

Seaver struggled with his control all night, striking out nine, but walking 8, as he lasted the six innings and gave up 5 runs on just 6 hits. And that lack of control meant that on a night when there were 17 half-innings with scores recorded and 16 of them had zeroes, the one inning without a zero was the difference.

So dominant was Johnson that Performance Enhancers only once all night had a runner in scoring position, and never with less than two outs.

The top of the order for Performance Enhancers - Chipper Jones, Joe Mauer, and Lou Gehrig - combined for an 0-for-12 night at the plate.

At 1-1, the series will take a day off for travel, and then resume in New York.

Player of the Game: Walter Johnson

Final Score: pilots 5, Enhancers 0

Win: Johnson

Loss: Seaver

The Best-of-Seven Series is tied at one game apiece.

It's not hyperbole to suggest that what Doc Gooden did in this game is the exact opposite of what Walter Johnson did in game two.

Gooden was hit hard, was hit often, and didn't make it out of the first inning.

After retiring Willie Mays to start the game, Gooden issued a walk to Honus Wagner, and then saw Mickey Mantle hit a two-run homer to center. A single by Barry Bonds and walks to John Olerud and Mike Piazza load the bases for Eddie Matthews, who unloaded them with a grand slam to right. A walk to Rogers Hornsby followed, and after a sac bunt my Randy Johnson moved Hornsby to second, Mays singled to send him home, and send Gooden to the showers. Max Scherzer let the inherited runner score after a single and a wild pitch to finally end the inning.

But, down 8-0 before swinging a bat, the damage was done.

Randy Johnson gave up an RBI single in the first to Sammy Sosa, but otherwise held the Enhancers in check until the bats on stone temple seattle pilots came to life once more in the 7th and removed all doubt from the game.

With Scherzer lifted after pitchin five-and-one-third scoreless innings and scattering three hits, Keith Foulke entered. If he was attempting to make Gooden feel better about his performance or audition for the 2018 Cleveland Indians Bullpen, he succeeded on the night. By any other measure, though, he failed.

Eddie Matthews hit a three-run homer off Foulke, and Honus Wagner did as well, causing Foulke to leave the game after giving up six runs and recording just one out.

That made it 14-1, and made it just a foot note that the Enhancers would score seven more runs off of Johnson, because the deficit was simply too large at that point.

Player of the Game: Eddie Mathews

Final Score: pilots 14, Enhancers 8

Win: Johnson

Loss: Gooden

The stone temple seattle pilots lead the Best of Seven Series 2-1.

And just like that, we've got a best two-out-of-three series.

And, basically, because Roger Clemens was dazzling.

Clemens nearly went the distance, recording 26 outs on the nights, and put up nothing but goose eggs on the scoreboard, while allowing just four hits, and striking out 9.

On both sides, runs were difficult to come by.

The scoring opened in the sixth inning, when Alex Rodriguez, getting a surprise start, scored on an RBI ground out by George Sisler.

In the 7th, the Performance Enhancers would add three more, with Sammy Sosa providing an RBI ground out to score Chipper Jones, and Rodriguez hitting a two-out, two-run double to score Lou Gehrig and Joe Mauer.

And that was it for the scoring.

stone temple seattle pilots would threaten in the 9th, with Clemens issuing free passes to Barry Bonds and Eddie Mathews. That would lead to Eric Gagne coming in, with Mike Piazza at the plate, representing the tying the run. But, Gagne would get Piazza to ground out to Jones, and that would end the game, and tie the series at two.

Rodriguez rewarded the surprise start by collecting two hits, driving in a pair of runs, and scoring once. Jones also had two hits, as Performance Enhancers collected 9 hits off of Steve Carlton as he gave up four runs over eight innings.

Willie Mays had two of the four hits off of Clemens, while Mickey Mantle went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts.

Player of the Game: Roger Clemens

Final Score: Enhancers 4, pilots 0

Win: Clemens

Loss: Carlton

Save: Gagne

The Best of Seven Series is tied at two games apiece.

With a masterful performance, Walter Johnson has positioned himself as the front runner to win the Simulated World Series MVP award.

That is, if his team can win one of the next two games at home.

Johnson pitched a complete game, giving up just one run on five hits, striking out six and walking two.

Outside of a couple of two-out hits in the first inning, Roger Clemens nearly matched him.

Clemens quickly got two outs sandwiched around a walk to Barry Bonds to start the game, but issued a two-out walk to Willie Mays before giving up an RBI single to John Olerud. After hitting Mike Piazza to load load the bases, Eddie Mathews hit a three-run double to empty the bases before ending the inning.

stone temple seattle pilots added a fifth run in the second inning, again on a two-out hit, this time with Mickey Mantle doing the damage. Performance Enhancers answered with an RBI single from Chipper Jones in the bottom of the third, but it was too little to overcome the deficit they faced.

Clemens would end the night pitching 7 innings, giving up 5 runs on 6 hits, and walking 6, while only striking out 5. Keith Foulke and Bruce Sutter combined for two hitless innings in relief.

Lou Gehrig struggled mightily in this one, having an 0-for-4 night at the plate.

Honus Wagner was the only player on either team to collect multiple hits.

The series takes a day to travel back to the Kingdome, before resuming for a pivital game six.

Player of the Game: Walter Johnson

Final Score: pilots 5, Enhancers 1

Win: W Johnson

Loss: Clemens '90

The stone temple seattle pilots lead the Best of Seven Series 3-2.

Game 6

First Pitch: 8:17 PM Eastern

If you were watching this game, we hope you took your heart medication.

Tom Seaver looked to be in a groove and controlling this one. He delivered an RBI triple in the second inning to put his team up 1-0, and after George Foster had an RBI single in the 5th to double his lead, Seaver took a three-hit shutout and a 2-0 lead into the 7th inning.

And that's where things got interesting.

Seaver got Mike Piazza to strike out to start the inning, but gave up a one-out double to Rogers Horsby. Bryce Harper - pinch hitting for Randy Johnson - grounded out to first, moving Hornsby to third. Willie Mays then brought him home with an RBI single to make it 2-1. Seaver issued a free pass Honus Wagner, and then Mickey Mantle ripped a single to score Mays, tie the game, and end the night for Seaver.

His final line was six-and-two-thirds innings pitched, two runs allowed, 6 hits, 10 strikeouts. And, of course, an RBI.

The pinch hit also ended the night for Randy Johnson, who pitched seven innings, with an identifcal two runs on 6 hits and 10 strikeouts.

And so, we had a bullpen game.

Keith Foulke was the first reliever for Performance Enhancers, getting Barry Bonds to ground out and end the threat in the seventh, and then g etting a 1-2-3 eighth.

Jim Kern was the first reliever called upon by Lou Pinella for stone temple seattle pilots, and he managed to escape unscathed, giving up two hits and issuing a walk in two innings, but keeping a zero on the scoreboard.

In the bottom of the ninth, the Enhancers called upon Bruce Sutter, after pinch hitting for Foulke.

Sutter gave up a one-out single to the pinch hitting Edgar Martinez, and Pinella wasted no time in sending out A J Pollock as a pinch runner. Pollock stole second, putting the winning run - for the game, the series, and the championship - in scoring position with one out. But, Sutter got Willie Mays to ground out to short, and Honus Wagner to ground out to third, and with that, we were heading to extra innings.

In the 10th, Aroldis Chapman entered, and the stone temple seattle pilots crashed. Chipper Jones singled to open the inning, but Chapman booted a routine grounder that had "double play" written all over it, and Joe Mauer reached, putting two on and none out. Chapman rebounded to strike out Lou Gehrig, and got Sammy Sosa to ground out to Short Stop, but Wagner misplayed the ball, and the bases were loaded with one out. Alex Rodriguez hit a fly ball to right center field, and Mays threw home, but Chipper Jones just barely - just barely - beat the throw home to score the go-ahead run, before George Sisler grounded out to send us to the bottom of the tenth.

Jon Stewart called upon the steady, trusty Eric Gagne to shut it down and send us to a game seven. He got a ground out from Mantle, and a fly out from Bonds, but gave up a two-out single to Jeff Bagwell. That put Eddie Mathews at the plate, representing the winning run, but Gagne got Mathews to strike out swinging, and give his team a tomorrow.

Player of the Game: Tom Seaver

Final Score: Enhancers 3, pilots 2 (10 innings)

Win: Sutter

Loss: Chapman

Save: Gagne

The Best of Seven Series is tied at three games apiece.

Game 7
Thursday, Novembtwits 14th

Welcome to the Simulated World Series. Game Seven is being held in the Kingdome, in Seattle, Washington (after an incident with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man shattering the roof).

First Pitch: 8:17 PM Eastern

Ceremonial First Pitch: Daniel "Doc" Adams

National Anthem: Enrico Pallazo

Vegas Odds: Pick Em / O/U: 8.5

Top of the First

Steve Carlton made a couple of mistakes to open up the game, but largely escaped too much damage. After getting Chipper Jones to pop out, he hit Joe Mauer to put him on first base. Mauer would move into scoring position on a single by Lou Gehrig, but a strikeout of Sammy Sosa have Carlton a chance to get out of the inning without giving up a run, but Alex Rodriguez delivered a two-out, RBI single to bring Mauer home, before Carlton struck out George Foster to end the inning.

Bottom of the First

A one-out walk to Barry Bonds gave stone temple seattle pilots a chance to immediately tie up the game in the bottom of the first. Roger Clemens opened the game by getting Eddie Collins to walk out, and then escaped all trouble in the inning by getting Bryce Harper - making a surprise start in Game Seven of the Simulated World Series - to ground into a 6-4-3 double play and end the inning. If Harper continues to reward his surprise start in that fashion, it's going to make for a lot of second guessing for manager Lou Pinella.

Top of the Second

Two-out RBI singles continue to the bane of Steve Carlton in this one, as he can't seem to end an inning when given the chance. George Sisler opened the inning with an infield single, and then stole second. Tris Speaker walked to put two on and none out, but Carlton retired Roger Clemens and Chipper Jones to, again, give himself a chance to end the inning with no damage, but Joe Mauer hit an RBI single to score Sisler, before Carlton struck out Lou Gehrig.

Bottom of the Second

Willie Mays ripped a single to right to open the inning, but Roger Clemens was locked in after that, getting John Olerud to pop out, Eddie Mathews to ground out, and Mike Piazza (yes, a Clemens-Piazza showdown in the World Series!) to strike out.

Top of the Third

Carlton was locked in, giving no chance to another two-out RBI hit, retiring the side in order, as he struck out Sammy Sosa, got Alex Rodriguez to ground out, and popped up George Foster.

Bottom of the Third

Clemens matched Carlton, getting the side in order, as Honus Wagner flew out, Carlton struck out, and Eddie Collins popped out. Clemens looks locked in, and the early two runs might hold up if he stays this dominant.

Top of the Fourth

Joe Mauer had a chance to come with another two-out hit for Performance Enhancers, but Steve Carlton found a way to end the inning this time. After Carlton got George Sisler to ground out to open the inning, a walk to Tris Speaker and a sac bunt by Roger Clemens put another runner in scoring position. Carlton issued an intentional walk to Chipper Jones to bring up Mauer, but this time he got Mauer to chase a ball out of the zone and strike out to end the inning.

Bottom of the Fourth

A shallow fly ball to left field by Barry Bonds was the seventh consecutive batter retired by Steve Carlton, a streak promptly snapped by a doubly by Bryce Harper. A Willie Mays pop-out meant that stone temple seattle pilots would need a two-out hit, just like both runs scored by Performance Enhancers so far. John Olerud worked a walk to put two on for Eddie Mathews, who delivered a fly ball to Center Field that would have left any stadium, putting stone temple on top 3-2, and putting pandemonium into the seats in the Kingdome. Clemens would come back to get Mike Piazza out to end the inning, but the damage was done.

Top of the Fifth

Pitching with a lead for the first time in the game, Steve Carlton ... promptly opened the inning by giving up a double to Lou Gehrig. Sammy Sosa got locked up, though, and watched strike three go past him, but a single by Alex Rodriguez saw Lou Gehrig held at third base, as they decided to not test the arm of Barry Bonds, with only one out. That decision looked like it would loom large as Carlton got George Foster to strike out, and get the second out. Rodriguez stole second base, meaning the two-out single by George Sisler scored both Rodriguez and Gehrig, giving the lead back to Performance Enhancers. Tris Speaker popped out to end the inning, but Carlton was left to once again mull over a two-out hit that brought in runs.

Bottom of the Fifth

stone temple seattle pilots would get their shot at another two-out rally in this fifth. Honus Wagner opened the inning by flying out to center, but Steve Carlton got a single off of Clemens. He moved to second as Eddie Collins singled, and to third on a fly out by Barry Bands. But, Bryce Harper couldn't come with a big two-out hit, lining out to the second baseman, Alex Rodriguez, to end the inning.

Top of the Sixth

Carlton breezed through the sixth with relative ease, getting Roger Clemens to line out, giving up an infield single to Chipper Jones, and then retiring Joe Mauer on a pop out and Lou Gehrig on a ground out.

Bottom of the Sixth

What you do with two outs has been the story of the game so far. All seven runs have been scored with two outs. So, when Willie Mays opened the inning with a single, only to have Roger Clemens get John Olerud to fly out and then stuck out Eddie Mathews, everyone knew better than to relax. A single by Mike Piazza put two on, and a wild pitch from Clemens moved both runners into scoring position. At that point, Clemens issued an intentional walk to Honus Wager, loading the bases, with Steve Carlton due up. With such a pivotal moment upon them, Manager Lou Pinella went to the bench, calling up Jeff Bagwell to pinch hit for Wagner, ending his night after six innings pitched. The Kingdome roared as Bagwell stepped to the plate, but there was no cheering in Mudville (in this case, Seattle), for mighty Bagwell stuck out.

Carlton's Final Line: Six Innings Pitched, Four Runs Allowed on Eight hits, three walks issued, seven struck out. He leaves as the pitcher of record, in line to lose if the score stays as is.

Top of the Seventh

With Carlton having been lifted for a pinch hitter, who would Lou Pinella turn to in relief? The answer is Jim Kern.

And Kern would instantly prove that to be the right choice, looking absolutely dominant as he mowed through the seventh inning. Sammy Sosa stuck out swining, Alex Rodriguez chased a ball out of the zone for a second strikeout, and the Kingdome went absolutely nuts as George Foster was rung up, taking the third strike looking, as Kern struck out the side.

Bottom of the Seventh

Eddie Collins look to get a rally going as he lead off the Seventh Inning with a single to right. But, Joe Mauer made a tremendous throw to second to retire Collins on an attempted steal of second for the first out of the inning. Clemens then got Barry Bonds to fly out to left, and a single by Bryce Harper - that would have scored Collins, had he beaten the throw and tag at second - meant it was just a man on first with two outs, rather than a tie game. Harper was left on first, though, as Willie Mays grounded out to end the inning.

Top of the Eighth

Jim Kern continues to be the unstoppable force in this one. Kern worked another quick inning, getting George Sisler to ground out, Tris Speaker to fly out, and then ... Jon Stewart in a one-run game decided to not pinch hit for Roger Clemens, sending him up to bat, and Kern got him to ground out, giving Kern his second consecutive 1-2-3 inning

Bottom of the Eighth

Clemens opened the eighth by striking out John Olerud, his fifth strikeout of the game. Clemens then issued a walk to Eddie Mathews, and a base hit by Mike Piazza put runners on the corners with one out. For the first time all night, a run was scored with less than two outs, as Honus Wagner hit into a fielder's choice, but Mathews scored from third, tying the game at four.

The managers then traded some strategy, as Mickey Mantle was sent up to pinch hit for the unhittable Jim Kern, and Jon Stewart pulled Clemens, sending in Keith Foulke in relief.

Mantle, however, wouldn't even get to register a plate appearance, as Joe Mauer had his second caught stealing of the game, throwing out Wagner at second base to end the inning.

Let's go to our Seattle Feed for commentary.

"Here's the pitch from Foulke, Wagner takes off, and it's a perfect throw from Mauer, and Wagner is out at second. Oh my. What a waste of Mickey Mantle, who doesn't even get a chance to impact the game. Can you believe it? The pilots tie it up, but that's all, and we'll head to the ninth inning tied at 4"

Clemens night is over, his final line: Seven-and-two-third innings pitched, four runs allowed on ten hits. Four walks issued, five strikeouts.

Jim Kern's final line: two innings pitched. Zero hits, zero walks, zero runs scored, and three strikeouts.

Each team has three outs remaining in this one, as we head the ninth in Seattle ...

Top of the Ninth Inning

Aroldis Chapman is the choice to replace Jim Kern, as Mickey Mantle remains in the dugout, no double switch initiated.

Chapman gives up a leadoff single to Chipper Jones, on a frozen rope to left field, putting the potential game winning run on with nobody out. Chapman, however, then induced Joe Mauer into a 4-6-3 double play, erasing Jones from the basepaths. Lou Gehrig was then sent down, frozen on a called strike three, his second time being struck out on the night.

Chapman exits the field to a standing ovation from the Kingdome, as the stone temple seattle pilots will come to bat in game seven of the Simulated World Series, with the score tied and a chance to win it.

Bottom of the Ninth Inning

With Chapman due up to lead off the inning, Lou Pinella goes back to his bench, sending up Edgar Martinez as a pinch hitter. Martinez, however, would chase a ball out of the zone and strike out swinging to be the first out of the ninth inning. Keith Foulke would then get Eddie Collins to ground out to first, and Barry Bonds to do the same, meaning we are heading to extra innings.

We probably should have seen this coming. After such a close regular-season series between the two teams, and such a close series to get us to game seven ...

After nine innings in Seattle, we are still deadlocked at 4 ...

Top of the Tenth

Billy Wagner is the choice to replace the pinch-hit-for Aroldis Chapman, and he gets off to a strong start, getting Sammy Sosa to foul out to the first baseman, John Olerud.

Alex Rodriguez steps to the plate next, and here's the radio calls for the first pitch to the second basemen for the Performance Enhancers ...

Away Call / Performance Enhancers Call

"Wagner gets the sign from Piazza. He's ready, and here's the pitch ... Rodriguez hits it and hits it a ton, it is high and deep ... Mays is racing back, on the warning track ... looks up ... GOODBYE! HOME RUN ALEX RODRIGUEZ! A-ROD DOES IT! The Performance Enhancers take a 5-4 lead in the tenth! THANK YOU BIOGENESIS!

And would you look at that? Jon Stewart is wasting no time, he grabs the bullpen phone and Eric Gagne is up and warming in the bullpen, he'll pitch the bottom of the tenth for sure"

Home Call / stone temple seattle pilots call

"Rodriguez digs in, and here's the pitch from Wagner ... and that looks like trouble ... Mays is tracking it, but he has no chance, that one is gone. A homerun by Alex Rodriguez gives the Enhancers the lead here in the 10th"

National Call / Joe Buck

"Pitch from Wagner. Home run, Rodriguez. Performance Enhancers take the lead"

Mike Piazza and Lou Pinella come to the mound to talk to Wagner, and calm him down, and Wagner remains in the game. Wagner gets George Foster to ground out third, and George Sisler to ground out to first and that ends the inning.

But the damage is done, and the Performance Enhancers will call upon Eric Gagne to close it out, with Bryce Harper, Willie Mays, and John Olerud due up for stone temple seattle pilots ...

The Bottom of the Tenth Inning

With Eric Gagne on in relief, Bryce Harper steps to the plate ... and grounds out to second base.

Willie Mays steps to the plate ... here's the call from the home feed ...

Home Call / stone temple seattle pilots call

"Mays at the plate. he swings and gets a hold of it, deep to right field ... but Sosa has room, just in front of the track, and makes the catch for out numbers two, and just like that, the pilots are down to their final out."

John Olerud, with two outs, in a game deeply narrated by clutch two hits, steps in against Gagne. And here's the call from the away feed

Away Call / Performance Enhancers Call

"The pitch from Gagne. Olerud hits a high fly ball, but it's shallow in right field and playable. Sosa settles under it, and Sosa makes the catch! Ball game over! Series Over! Enhancers win! Can you believe it! Can you Believe it? The Performance Enhnacers have won the Simulated World Series!"

Your Final Score: Performance Enhancers 5, stone temple seattle pilots 4 (10 innings)
