October 27, 2006: NLCS Game 6



Eric Chavez connected with a 'big fly' at John Locke Field where the Metropolis Avengers beat the Fleetwood Walkers by the score of 6 to 5. In doing so, the Avengers tied the National League Championship series at 3 games apiece.

Jason Isringhausen (1-0) won the game with in relief. He performed flawlessly in 2/3 of an inning. Metropolis banged out 11 hits on the night.

Mike Wuertz earned his 1st save. The losing pitcher was Derrick Turnbow (2-1) in relief. He pitched 3 innings and surrendered just 1 hit and no walks.

A sure-to-be-thrilling Game 7 will feature Pedro Martinez for Metropolis and A.J. Burnett for Fleetwood. This will be the third matchup of these two pitchers during the series, with Burnett's Fleetwood Walkers narrowly winning both previous matchups in Game 1 and Game 4.
