ALCS Game Six:
Once again, Nashville had the chance to reach its first World Series in nearly 40 years. Once again, Miami faced the end of its season. The Predators struck first, when
Carlo Romero drove in 2 runs with a two out single in the first inning. The score remained 2-0 through the second, third, fourth, and fifth innings. In the sixth inning, the Dolphins'
Dennis Fernandez hit a run-scoring double.
Albert Chichester drew a bases-loaded walk in the seventh inning, tying the game at two. In the eighth inning, Miami took the lead on an RBI single by
Bill Tovar. 3-2 would be the final score as the Dolphins forced a seventh game.
The series is
tied at 3 games apiece.
NLCS Game Six:
Like Miami, the San Jose Sharks entered Game Six on the verge of having their season end. Unlike Miami, the Sharks didn't need a late inning rally to keep it alive. San Jose jumped on Pittsburgh, getting a solo homerun from
George Ormiston in the first inning. In the second inning, the Sharks got an RBI double from
Roy Isenhour and an RBI single from
Simon Martinez, making it 3-0. In the fourth,
Robert Clear made it 4-0 with a solo homerun, and a 2-run single from
Orlando Escobedo in the fifth inning made it 6-0. The Pirates made it 6-1 when
Jose Arruza scored on an error by pitcher
Roger Salazar. They wouldn't get any closer, however.
The series is
tied at 3 games apiece.
