Game 1
MARTINEZ DOMINATES IN 6-2 WIN
By George Plimpton

CASPER, WY (Undead Press Inc.) – Pedro Martinez dominated the first game of the divisional 
playoff series between the Casper Ghosts and the Monrovia Madness.  Martinez struck out 7 
and allowed only three hits on the way to a 6-2 victory.  Casper scored in four of the first 
five innings and Martinez turned the game over to the pen after six innings with a 6-1 lead 
that Arthur Rhodes and Luis Vizcaino brought home.  I, the noble reporter, soaked in the 
emotion of the clubhouse, even though my ephemeral constitution can no longer digest the 
post-game spread.

Game 2
MADNESS TALLY SEVEN TO EVEN SERIES
By John Hinkley

CASPER (Asylum Press) – Jodie Foster looked on with rapt admiration as I covered 
this 7-4 Monrovia victory.  Monrovia scored one each in the first and second innings 
before Casper grabbed a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the third behind a Tim Salmon home 
run.  Consider letting me out please.  Monrovia got back on top with a four run fourth, 
featuring hits by five of six straight batters that forced Mike Mussina to flee screaming.  
Ted Lilly settled down to make it through five and Ben Weber and Octavio Dotel allowed 
only a single unearned run the rest of the way, while their catcher Ben Davis added a 
solo homer to give Monrovia it’s final margin.

Game 3

KENT HOMER WINS BACK-AND-FORTH BATTLE IN ELEVENTH
By Jim Murray

MONROVIA (UPI) — As the titans of the diamond battled back and forth the rhythms 
of the scoreboard neatly mirrored the rhythm of the action.  Of course, in a thrilling 
back and forth game, with everything from clutch home runs to ejections, the pitter 
patter of the action of the rain left a scoreboard looking more like an eye chart.  And 
it left both closers headed for a long rest after they were left to battle for as long as 
the contest lasted.

Fortunately for the Ghosts, Jeff Kent finally pounded a two-run home run in the top of 
the 11th.  And in the bottom of the frame, a very tired Eric Gagne barely brought that 
lead home after allowing a lead off home run to Orlando Merced followed by a single, 
but a line out and a couple of ground balls game Casper a 2 games to 1 lead.

Game 4
BATS ROCKET MARTINEZ TO SECOND SERIES WIN
By Edward R. Murrow

MONROVIA (UPI) – Booming homers from Tim Salmon and Nomar Garciaparra framed a 
couple of smaller rallies as the Ghosts scored seven runs for Pedro Martinez as he, 
with a three inning assist from recently shellacked Mike Mussina, pitched the Ghosts 
to a dominant 3-1 lead in the series.  Martinez went 5.2 innings, clearly laboring for 
the last couple of outs, but had enough in the tank on short rest to win the game 7-3 
after both Martinez and Madness starter Kip Wells dominated early.

Game 5
MADNESS PEN, SLAP HITTERS OVERCOME WORLD DOMINATION CONSPIRACY
By Teddy Kozinski

MONROVIA (AP) – Rallying to the well thought banner of fighting oppression, the 
Madness rallied from a 5-0 deficit behind well thought out political expression to win 
6-5 in 10 innings.  The Madness bullpen posted six scoreless innings and the offense 
slapped together to tie the game in the 8th on a Sean Burroughs double.

The Madness won it in the 10th off the back end of the Casper pen who does not 
recycle.  Burroughs led off the 10th with a single, but was thrown out at the plate 
trying to score on a Nick Johnson double.  However, after a walk, Johnny Damon 
doubled in Johnson and the Madness had staved off elimination.  Earlier, Tim Salmon 
had hit a three-run homer to cap a five run second and give Casper the 5-0 lead 
which would have been greater if they had properly applied thermodynamics.

1 out when winning run scored


Game 6
MUSSINA, SALMON WIN SERIES FOR GHOSTS
By Rick Rockett (he’s dead to us)

CASPER (UPI) – Mike Mussina dominated early and Tim Salmon scored one run and 
drove in the second as the Casper Ghosts closed out their divisional series with 
Monrovia by a 2-1 final.  Tim Salmon led off the bottom of the first with a double 
and scored on Chipper Jones’s single to grab an early 1-0 lead.  Mussina struck out 
seven in 5.2 scoreless innings, turning the game over to his pen with the 1-0 lead 
intact.  Salmon then added an insurance run in the seventh, singling home David 
Bell (who had been hit by a pitch).

That run was necessary, because Monrovia finally got on the board in the ninth.  
Alex Cora led off being hit by a Jose Vizcaino fastball.  Mike Remlinger came in, and 
an out later, Alex Ochoa singled Cora to third.  Remlinger struck out Ruben Sierra 
for the second out, but pinch-hitter Orlando Merced lined an Eric Gagne pitch to 
left field to score Cora and put the tying run in scoring position.  Monrovia came 
up short, however, when Todd Greene struck out on pitches no batter could have hit.

Casper now awaits the winner of the series between Spokane and Boston, which 
will start someday.
