Walter "Big Train" Johnson and Christy "Big Six" Mathewson got together and formed two teams to barnstorm around the nation. Two exhibitions were held so far, one in NY and the other LA.
Game 1 - LA
In a wonderful pitchers duel, Lou Gehrig creams a ninth inning 3-run bomb to give the Big Six's the win. Christy and Walter both pitched well and Babe Ruth added 2-hits.
Game 2 - NY
Extra baseball! A-Rod's pinch hit homer in the 9th ties it for the Big Train's, but Mike Schmidt's 11th inning single eventually wins it for Big Six. Pedro struck out 12 and gave up just 4 hits. Koufax lasted into the ninth giving up 8 hits and striking out 7.
Babe is the man !! 0 w 2 L go Brews !!
