The LOB World Series runner up Barnstormers face off against
the ATB Gossamers in the 3 vs 6 match-up in our tournament of champions. Clover Bottom elects to send Fergie Jenkins
(13-11, 3.84 ERA) to the mound in game 1.
Facing Jenkins will by the ATB Cy Young Award Winner Carl Hubbell (17-6,
2.80). Both teams plan on employing a
four man rotation for the balance of the playoffs. Interestingly enough, the Gossamers
themselves have Fergie Jenkins as their 4th starter. The probable starters:
Gm 1: Carl Hubbell @ Fergie Jenkins
Gm 2: Tex Hughson (17-10, 2.90)
@ David Cone (9-7, 2.94)
Gm 3: Eddie Cicotte (18-5, 3.41) @ Preacher
Roe (11-12, 3.33)
Gm 4: Johnny Podres (12-7, 3.12) @
Fergie Jenkins (11-11, 3.98)
Gm 5: Fergie Jenkins @ Carl Hubbell
Gm 6: Tex Hughson @ David
Cone
Gm 7: Preacher Roe @ Eddie Ciccotte
At the end of each ATB season, a series of extra simulations
are run and compiled. The results are
published and shared, the Gossamers ended up this year’s Resim Champions and
are likely the best team in ATB. With 93
regular season wins, the Barnstormers won the Adell Division and then
ultimately the Doubleday Pennant.
