HOW DID THEY MAKE IT TO ROUND 2????
They scored more runs than their opponents.
Isn't it obvious? They stranded runs when they needed to and got great pitching performances.
It's called "What happens in 2 games."
You mean what happens in 3 games?Quote:

COMBINED, the three singles had a TOTAL DISTANCE of 89 feet. If you take the three hits and combined them into one hit straight down the line, and it wouldn't even reach the base...
Another ripping quality analysis from Joe Morgan!:)Quote:
