SLCS Game 3

Brian Kaat got Miami started against Doug Pearson with a homerun to lead off the game. In the bottom of the inning, Brian bailed out Bryan Brooks by leaping at the fence to rob Mike Perry of a 2 run homer. Brooks loaded the bases with one out in the first, but got Dirk Lindros to pop up before striking out Jose Isales.

In the second, Miami loaded the bases for Brian Kaat, who forced in a run with a walk. Richie Almanzar then unloaded the bases with a 3 run double.

Brooks pitched 7 innings for the win, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits and 4 walks. Miami now leads the series 2-1. Ho Chi Fat was hit by a pitch and will likely miss the rest of the series. Both teams are now playing short handed, as Miami shortstop Jim Concepcion is out as well. Neither team is willing to make a roster move though, as doing so would prevent that player from playing in a potential World Series.
