國聯驟死戰

大聯盟季後賽今天開打,由國聯外卡驟死戰率先登場,今年的大黑馬海盜隊,在投打俱佳的情況下,以6:2擊敗紅人,接下來要與紅雀進行5戰3勝的系列戰。美聯的外卡驟死戰則是在明天登場,由印地安人對戰光芒。

生涯首度打季後賽的Byrd,第一個打席就讓滿場的海盜球迷開心不已。

一向在海盜主場,投得嚇嚇叫的紅人投手Johnny Cueto,今天變成餵球機器,面對捕手Russell Martin,這一球又被轟了出去。

Cueto只撐了3.1局,就被打出七支安打失掉四分。反觀今年對紅人一勝難求的Liriano,完全主宰比賽,主投七局只失一分,還送出五次三振。

不只先發投手Liriano,表現精采,捕手Martin在打擊方面,更是貢獻良多,單場打出三支安打,包括這支七局的第二轟。

海盜在投打表現都優於紅人的情況下,終場就以六比二擊敗紅人,睽違21年之後再度打進季後賽,下一輪將和國聯中區冠軍紅雀,進行五戰三勝的對戰。

一戰定生死的外卡割喉戰,明天輪到美聯登場,由印地安人在主場迎戰光芒,印地安人出乎意料之外派出菜鳥投手薩拉札擔任先發,光芒則是由近況最好,季末拿下三連勝的卡布主投。

 

Pirates host Reds in opening game of MLB postseason (2013/10/02)

The Major League Baseball postseason has opened with a pair of do-or-die wild card games. The first featured a pair of NL Central rivals, the Cincinnati Reds and the Pittsburgh Pirates. 

Playing in front of a capacity home crowd in Pittsburgh, Marlon Byrd made his first career playoff game a memorable one for himself and the fans.

In the past, Reds start Johnny Cueto had his way in PNC Park. Not in this game. The Pirates, led by catcher Russell Martin, treated Cueto like a pitching machine.

Lasting just three and a third innings, Cueto surrendered four runs and seven hits. His counterpart Francisco Liriano couldn’t get a win during the regular season against the Reds but dominated this game. Liriano gave up one run in seven innings while recording five strikeouts.

Martin, meanwhile, had three hits on the day, including a second home run in the seventh.

Beating the Reds on the mound and at the plate, the Pirates won the game 6-2. Pittsburgh went 21 years between playoff games, though the next one will come sooner. On Friday, Taiwan time, it will face the NL Central-winning St. Louis Cardinals for the start of a five-game series.

The second of two, sudden-death wild card games takes place in about eight hours, when the Cleveland Indians host the Tampa Bay Rays. In a surprise move, the Indians are putting their faith in rookie Danny Salazar. The Rays will hand the ball to Alex Cobb, who ended the season with three straight wins.
