NLDS Game Summaries: Fleetwood vs. Ocala

Game 1 - Fleetwood at Ocala
A.J. Burnett (15-5, 3.12 ERA) vs. Jake Peavy (18-8, 3.58 ERA)

With each team's ace on the mound, the nearly 50,000 fans in attendance for Game 1 expected to see a pitchers' duel. However, both team's powerful offenses had other ideas in mind.

Fleetwood began the game with a bang. Nick Markakis and David Wright led off the 1st inning with a single and a home run respectively. And in the 2nd, the Walkers followed a Carlos Beltran single with back-to-back homers from Ruben Gotay and Ryan Doumit.

Ocala trailed 5-0, but responded quickly in the bottom of the 2nd inning. Former Fleetwood Walker Raul Ibanez led off the inning with a home run, and Tadahito Iguchi later added an RBI triple. Ocala tightened the game even further in the 3rd when Mike Lowell energized the hometown crowd with a 2-run homer. The game was now just 5-4 in favor of the visiting Fleetwood Walkers.

Despite their shaky starts, both starting pitchers then settled in. Peavy retired 14 straight Walkers at one point, while Burnett threw scoreless innings in the 4th, 5th and 6th before handing the game over to his bullpen with one out in the 7th.

In the bottom of the 9th, Grady Sizemore put the tying run on base with a one-out walk. Fleetwood reliever Heath Bell would hang on, though, and the Walkers had earned a one-run win to open the series.

Final score: Fleetwood 5, Ocala 4.
W: Burnett (2-0). L: Peavy (0-1). SV: Bell (2).
HR: Wright (3), Gotay (1), Doumit (1), Lowell (1), Ibanez (1).
Fleetwood leads series 1-0.

Game 2 - Fleetwood at Ocala
Chad Billingsley (15-5, 3.51 ERA) vs. Roy Oswalt (16-6, 3.34 ERA)

Fleetwood had come into Ocala and stolen a Game 1 win. However, Ocala quickly showed their resilience in Game 2.

The Ocelots jumped on Fleetwood pitcher Chad Billingsley for 3 runs in the 1st inning. Billingsley would give up another two more runs in the 2nd without retiring a single batter, and his day was quickly over.

The score remained 5-0 in favor of Ocala until Fleetwood's Carlos Pena hit a 3-run homer in the 6th inning. Another close ending seemed in store...until Ocala suddenly scored 5 runs in the 7th inning on a flurry of singles.

Fleetwood would add a single run in the 9th inning, but the game was soon over. Ocala had taken Game 2, and the series moved to Fleetwood tied one game apiece.

Final score: Fleetwood 4, Ocala 10.
W: Oswalt (1-0). L: Billingsley (2-1). SV: None.
HR: Pena (2), Iguchi (1).
Series tied 1-1.

Game 3 - Ocala at Fleetwood
Joe Saunders (8-5, 5.50 ERA) vs. Kelvim Escobar (21-4, 4.27 ERA)

Buoyed by support from its hometown fans, Fleetwood scored two quick runs against Ocala's Joe Saunders in the 1st inning. Ocala bounced right back, however, scoring single runs in both the 2nd (on a Matt Kemp homer) and the 3rd (on a Todd Helton double).

Following this early flourish of scoring, each team held the other scoreless through the 6th inning. In the 7th inning, Fleetwood lived up to its team nickname by drawing 4 walks. The last, by David Wright, plated a run and gave Fleetwood a 3-2 lead.

Following 3 scoreless innings by Randy Johnson, Fleetwood's Manny Corpas secured the final 5 outs without issue. Fleetwood had taken Game 3.

Final score: Ocala 2, Fleetwood 3.
W: Johnson (1-0). L: Shields (0-1). SV: Corpas (2).
HR: Kemp (1).
Fleetwood leads series 2-1.

Game 4 - Ocala at Fleetwood
Jake Peavy (18-8, 3.58 ERA) vs. Greg Maddux (23-3, 3.47 ERA)

Having taken the loss in Game 1, Jake Peavy took the mound again for Ocala in Game 4. Fleetwood countered with Greg Maddux, who won 23 games for Fleetwood during the regular season.

Neither pitcher disappointed their teammates, with each throwing one scoreless inning after another. In fact, the game was scoreless through six innings.

In the top of the 7th, Mike Lowell finally broke through. His lead-off home run against Maddux gave Ocala a 1-0 lead. Scott Downs soon came in to relieve Maddux, but the Ocelots had now given their ace the lead.

Fleetwood put a runner on 2nd with two outs in the 7th, but Ryan Doumit lined out to second baseman Tadahito Iguchi to end the threat. Peavy then retired the Walkers in order in the 8th, and retired the first two Fleetwood batters in the 9th before allowing a single to Carlos Pena. The hit was only Fleetwood third of the game, but The tying run was now on base. When Carlos Beltran followed with a walk, the tying run was now in scoring position.

With Ruben Gotay coming to bat, Ocala manager Eddie Murrary relieved his tiring ace with left-handed pitcher George Sherrill. Fleetwood manager Rube Foster countered with pinch-hitter Cody Ross, who dominated left-handed pitching all year (.444 avg, .508 obp, .974 slg).

Sherrill retired Ross on a flyball to center field, though, and the game was over. Led by its star pitcher, Ocala had shut out Fleetwood at its home ballpark.

Final score: Ocala 1, Fleetwood 0.
W: Peavy (1-1). L: Maddux (0-1). SV: Sherrill (1).
HR: Lowell (2).
Series tied 2-2.

Game 5 - Ocala at Fleetwood
Dustin McGowan (18-8, 3.67 ERA) vs. A.J. Burnett (15-5, 3.12 ERA)

This vital game would put one of these two teams within one victory of a series win. Both teams undoubtedly felt pressure, but Fleetwood probably more so than Ocala. After all, should Ocala take this game, the series would head back to Ocala where the Ocelots would need just one win from their two staff aces: Roy Oswalt (Game 6) and Jake Peavy (Game 7, if needed).

Game 5 featured another stellar pitching matchup, pitting Ocala's young Dustin McGowan versus Fleetwood's veteran A.J. Burnett. Both pitchers lived up to their pre-game billing, hurling shutouts through 6 innings.

In the 7th, the Ocelots finaly drew first blood...just as they had in Game 4. After two Burnett walks to lead off the inning, Ryan Doumit committed a passed ball. With two runners now in scoring position, former Fleetwood outfielder Raul Ibanez came through with a two-run single against his former team. Fleetwood reliever Scott Downs then came in and struck out the side, but the damage was done. Ocala now led 2-0.

With one out in the 7th, Ocala manager Eddie Murray again turned to his bullpen. George Sherrill (1 inning), Scott Shields (0.1 inning), and Dustin Moselely (1.1 innings) would not disappoint. They retired Fleetwood in order to close out the game, giving Ocala its second consecutive shutout against a team that had previously been shut out just twice all season.

Ocala headed home with not only a 3-2 series lead, but also with its two aces -- Roy Oswalt and Jake Peavy -- ready to pitch in Games 6 and 7.

Final score: Ocala 2, Fleetwood 0.
W: McGowan (1-0). L: Burnett (2-1). SV: Moseley (1).
HR: None.
Ocala leads series 3-2.

Game 6 - Fleetwood at Ocala
Chad Billingsley (15-5, 3.51 ERA) vs. Roy Oswalt (16-6, 3.34 ERA)

Needing two wins to keep its season alive, the visiting Fleetwood Walkers handed the ball to youngster Chad Billingsley. Meanwhile, Ocala sent veteran righty Roy Oswalt to the mound.

Barry Bonds quickly put the Walkers on top with a solo home run in the 1st inning. In the 3rd inning, though, Ocala scored two crucial runs following a costly misplay in the outfield by Nick Markakis. His error on a J.D. Drew single put a runner on 3rd. Following a walk to Tadahito Iguchi, Billingsley gave up one run on a wild pitch and another on a double by Grady Sizemore.

Fleetwood tied the game in the 4th when Bonds scored on an RBI double by Carlos Pena. The game remained tied through 7 innings.

In the 8th, David Wright led off with a walk. Melky Cabrera, who pinch-ran for Bonds in the 6th inning, followed with a sacrifice bunt. An infield single by Miguel Cabrera put runners on the corners with just one out.

Carlos Pena then came through with his second RBI double of the night, scoring both Wright and Miguel Cabrera. The score was now 4-2 in favor of the visiting Walkers, and the Ocala crowd was virtually silent. When Carlos Beltran followed with an RBI single, the silence was deafening.

The silence ended in the bottom of the 9th inning. Ocala led off the inning with two singles and a walk, loading the bases and putting the tying run on first. Grady Sizemore and the top of Ocala's lineup were due to bat next.

Heath Bell threw a great breaking ball to Sizemore, who grounded the ball to second baseman Howie Kendrick. Unable to turn a double play, Kendrick threw to first base for the sure out. Ocala scored a run on the groundout, and the tying run was now on second base.

Bell faced Derek Jeter next. Jeter had a solid at bat, lining a shot to fellow shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera. Cabrera snagged the ball for the second out, and Todd Helton followed with a ground out to first baseman Carlos Pena. The game was over, and Fleetwood had forced an exciting Game 7.

Final score: Fleetwood 5, Ocala 3.
W: Downs (1-0). L: Shields (0-2). SV: Bell (3).
HR: Bonds (2).
Series tied 3-3.

Game 7 - Fleetwood at Ocala
Kelvim Escobar (21-4, 4.27 ERA) vs. Jake Peavy (18-8, 3.58 ERA)

For both teams, their seasons had come down to one game. The winner would advance to the N.L. Championship Series. The loser would be forced to begin planning for 2009.

Much to the home crowd's delight, Ocala scored first in the 2nd inning thanks to a Raul Ibanez double, a Joe Mauer single, and a Matt Kemp sacrifice fly.

That run proved valuable, as each starting pitcher -- Kelvin Escobar for Fleetwood, Jake Peavy for Ocala -- put zero after zero on the scoreboard. At the end of the 6th inning, Ocala still clung to its 1-0 lead and was just 9 outs from taking the series.

In the top of the 7th, though, Fleetwood's bats -- dormant for much of the series -- suddenly awoke. First, pinch-hitter Melky Cabrera tripled to deep right field. When Nick Markakis followed with a single, the Walkers had tied the game 1-1. David Wright then hit a single, advancing Markakis to second and chasing Jake Peavy from the game.

Ocala manager Eddie Murray once again turned to left-handed reliever George Sherrill, this time to face Barry Bonds with nobody out and runners on 1st and 2nd. Much to many observers' surprise, however, Fleetwood skipper Rube Foster called on Cody Ross to pinch hit for Bonds, who left the game having walked in each of his 3 previous plate appearances on the day.

Although surprising to some, Ross quickly made his manager look like a genius. He greeted Sherrill with a deep three-run homer into the Ocala sky, and circled the bases as if floating on air. Asdrubal Cabrera would add an insurance run with an RBI single a few batters later, and Fleetwood headed to the bottom of the 7th with a commanding 5-1 lead.

J.D. Drew, the consummate professional, showed that he does not rattle easily. Leading off the 7th, he hit a home run of his own off Fleetwood reliever Manny Corpas. Corpas would retire the next two batters easily, though, before giving way to Scott Downs.

Downs would retire Todd Helton to end the 7th, and combine with Heath Bell to shut down the Ocelots without allowing a baserunner the rest of the way. Fleetwood had persevered, winning two elimination games on the road against Ocala's top two starting pitchers.

With the win, Fleetwood advances to face Bloomington in the National League Championship Series.

Congratulations to Corey Weisser and his Ocala Ocelots on a great season and exciting post-season series.

Final score: Fleetwood 5, Ocala 2.
W: Corpas (2-0). L: Peavy (1-2). SV: Bell (4).
HR: Ross (2), Drew (1).
Fleetwood wins series 4-3.
