Where are the first two innings of Game 2 of the UHF/Old Stylers game?

You can catch it on my Twitch channel. I forgot to hit record when the game started 

[Darky]

Willie Mays, Jimmie Foxx and Hank Aarron spearhead Old Styler's offense by combining for 14 hits, 13 runs, 16 RBI, and 6 HR. Hank Aarron, who was MVP of the Arcade WS, continues to be at his best in the playoffs with a .769 average and went a perfect 6/6 against UHF. Ch.62. UHF did manage to cut into the early Old Styler lead throughout the game, but the pitching and hitting failed to seize momentum when opportunities were there. The Old Stylers now lead 2-0 in the best of 5 divisional series.

Hack Wilson carries Tropicana in come from behind win to take game 2. Clemens comes out of the bullpen to shutdown PBR.

Down 21-12 in the 7th and 22-15 in the 8th, Tropicana's sticks got going down the stretch and the Rocket's arm was nearly perfect in the 8th and 9th with no runs allowed as he picked up the win.

With the score even at 22 in the 9th, George Foster hit a go-ahead 2-run shot. Hack Wilson followed with his playoff leading 5th HR and raised his average to .789 for the series as he once again shows in the playoffs that he is perhaps the best weapon in the game. Cepeda hit a 2-run shot after a Strwbry double for extra added insurance that was not to be needed. Tropicana leads 2-0 in the series thus far.

UHF Ch.62's dramatic win in the 9th gets them back in the series and avoids sweep. Rick Reuschel earns win with arm and bat - Big Daddy hits leadoff triple in the bottom of the 9th with the score tied at 20. Gehrig then knocks him in with GWH to go along with big 6 hit game.

Hank Aarron continues scorching from the plate with 7-7 showing at the plate and now leads all playoff hitters with .850 average. The Ye Old Stylers managed to get back in the game after being down all game and overcame a 20-14 deficit in the 9th to tie the game, but it wasn't enough on a day when UHF finally found a way to win and get back in the series.

Down 2-0 in the Divisional series and 7-0 in the third inning, the Pabst Blue Ribbons rallied for 7 runs to recover momentum and the swag they flashed during the year. In the 7th, Chili Davis hit a go-ahead 3-run shot to give the Pabst Blue Ribbons a 14-12 lead. The Blue Ribbons held on to that lead as they outscored the Tropicana Staircases 13-6 down the stretch for a convincing win and avoiding a sweep.

Chili Davis went 6/7 with 2 homeruns and 7 RBI to lead the PBR balanced output. Fernando earned the win with his splendid showing in long relief. Team moral leader and consultant, Steve Bedrosian, was solid in relief and picked up the save.

Despite Tropicana's loss, Hack Wilson hit his playoff leading 8th homerun and is hitting a series leading .800.

When the season is on the line Whitey Ford steps up and Campanella had been so so all season, but really came through in Game 5

[Nacho]

I don't think I'd ever seen back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back home runs before.

What are the odds the visiting team wins all 10 games?  1024/1 I do believe.   Amazing.

Make that 12 games in a row! Tempo's Tropicana was the visiting team in their two straight wildcard round wins. It's crazy.

Sorry for the delay due to the election coverage last week and my trip to Zion Park in Utah. Throw in other family activities as well as well as hiking stuff here in the Vegas desert.

What's going to happen is that I'll get the boxscores finished from the divisional round this week.

The Final Four or league championship series will have to conclude when I get to Sweden next week. I leave Sunday and I'd rather continue when I get to Sweden when I'll have more time to dedicate to rest of the playoffs. Also, I want the playoffs to finish in a sustained way without any breaks and pauses due to vacation. So hang in there guys, we'll see a champion to the inaugural Super League by the end of this month.

The playoffs will resume next week. I'm shooting for next Wednesday. Sorry for the Covid and post election mayhem delay. I'll message and get the word out to all who are still alive for the FRBI Super League title.

[BeefMaster]

Huzzah!

[nomaaa]

back in action baby

[Darky]

Two games left to score in the concluding games of the Divisional playoffs. Boxscores to come later today. Then I'll recap the playoffs and the LCS mathcups as well as set up a preliminary schedule. I can say now that the series will go one game at a time which makes my job easier.

Yeah, sorry about the pause. It just got to be too much of a job while I was on vacation in Vegas and Cali. Then the election mayhem news came along with December NFL. Nevertheless, the Super League is back baby!

When the season is over, there is one more unfinished league. It was the one Tempo had running for a bit before it folded. I'll think about it, but maybe another draft in March would be a better idea. Arcade or Super League, doesn't matter to me. Perhaps, you can do an Arcade league in the spring, then go Super League in the summer. Thoughts?
