This game was much closer than the score indicates, as Fleetwood blew it open late with 7 runs in the 9th inning. Highlighting the explosion was a 3-run double by David DeJesus, set up by some wild Brooklyn pitching (5 walks allowed in 9th inning alone).
Prior to that outburst, Javier Vazquez (6 IP, 10 K) and Kerry Wood (2 IP, 4 K) had pitched very well for the Bulldogs. Only a solo home run by Marcus Giles and an RBI double by David Wright in the 7th had marred their days.
Fleetwood's pitching was also strong. In fact, they did not allow an earned run all game. Esteban Loaiza (5 IP, 0 R, 7 K) led the staff, but the bullpen conributed 4 solid innings as well.
May 30: Fleetwood 5, Brooklyn 7
Brooklyn ended its losing ways versus Fleetwood, finally winning a game after 5 earlier loses. The Bulldogs took advantage of a shaky Dave Bush to score 5 runs in the first three innings. Fleetwood fought its way back, but fell just short. John Olerud starred at the plate for Brooklyn (4-5, 2B, HR, 2 RBI).
May 31: Fleetwood 4, Brooklyn 3 (11 innings)
Two lefties took the hill looking to deliver a series-win to their teams. Mark Buerhle started for Fleetwood and Jamie Moyer for Brooklyn. Both pitchers performed well, but this game would eventually be decided by the bullpens.
Neifi Perez broke a 1-1 tie in the 7th inning with a squeeze bunt, scoring David DeJesus. Michael Cuddyer delivered a solo home run in the bottom of the 7th, though, tying the game again.
Brooklyn took the lead in the bottom of the 8th on a Garrett Atkins RBI single. Moving to the top of the 9th, Fleetwood scratched a run across on a pinch-hit RBI single by Josh Phelps against Brooklyn closer Todd Jones. The game was headed to extra innings.
In the top of the 11th, Luis Matos singled in Marcus Giles. Fleetwood now led 4-3, and that's how the game would end after Scott Downs put down a Bulldog rally in the bottom of the inning.
Fleetwood wins the series 2 games to 1. Box scores are below.
