Bellevue, October 28
Despite winning three consecutive, the Bellevue Freakin Franchise take a huge risk in Game 7 by starting their first basemen across the diamond at the hot corner and have also decided start middle reliever Allan Anderson. In the words of owner Brad P, it "wouldn't be me if I didn't take the risk with an unorthodox approach."
Derrek Lee (.818 regular season OPS) starts in place of the struggling Jimmy Williams (.360 LCS OPS) despite having no prior experience at the position. Anderson pitched a handful of games as a starter this year, and a handful more in relief. In the playoffs however, Bellevue turned to him after a poor showing from many others starters and he has delivered with a 2.85 ERA in 3 post season starts.
Facing off against the Franchise for Planet 10 is Joel Horlen. Horlen was masterful in the regular season winning 14 against 7 losses while holding down a 2.97 ERA. In the post season he has made two starts, both complete game shutout victories.
