The Four Inns Walk
Has Cliff Lee’s performance last night taken it’s place amongst legendary performances of old?
For the second straight start, Lee struck out 10 and walked none. In the previous 105 years of postseason baseball, four pitchers had double-digit strikeouts and no walks.
His line, 10 Ks, 0 walks, 0.00 ERA, CG, W
By my estimates; excluding Christy Mathewson in 1905 (27 straight shutout innings), I have these listed my 1-3 Greatest Single Game World Series Performances…I’m probably forgetting something, or maybe still in awe of last night’s performance, so feel free to help me out here..
1. Bob Gibson, Game 1 – 1968 vs Detroit Tigers, 17Ks, 0.00 ERA, W
2. Jack Morris, Game 7 – 1991 vs Atlanta Braves, 10 inning shutout to win the World Series.
3. Cliff Lee, Game 1 – 2009 vs New York Yankees, 10Ks, 0 Walks, 0.00 ERA
Others: Koufax in ’65, Mickey Lolich in ’68, Schilling in ’00
Can’t believe I forgot Don Larsen’s Perfect Game, in ’56, obviously thats #1.
yes it has. and just the way he went about it was amazing.
the catches, the warm-up throws off the back of the mound,
and the way he mixed his pitches
even the grounds crew couldn’t stop him. lol
unbelievable! and a .054 era in the post season.
it was a gem!.and thanks for mentioning “lolitch” a lot of people forget all the really great performances.
