World Series Game 2

Alex Maldonado gave Denver a 1-0 lead with an RBI single in the first inning off Bryan Brooks. In the bottom of the inning, Brian Kaat reached on a shortstop error and then moved to third on a hit and run single by Almanzar. Kaat made a big mistake in wandering too far off third with Joe Young at the plate, and was picked off. Young grounded out, McNamara walked, and Kei Ijawa hung a curveball to Andy Moore, who put Miami up with a 3 run homer.

Ijawa gave up 2 more runs in the 2nd, and didn't finish the inning. Miami scored a few more times off the Denver bullpen, including a solo homer by Brandon Cohen. Bryan Brooks scattered 9 hits over 6 innings, allowing 2 runs for the win. Doug Lefevre pitched 2 1/3 innings of excellent relief before Ervin Russell came in for the last 2 outs.

Miami heads to Denver with a 2-0 lead and Tim Sullivan ready to pitch. Denver will counter with their ace, Ruben Ramirez.
