Chicago at Miami game 6

Stars 10 Winds 3

Chicago scored in the first as Tobias Muttonly came home on a Javier Soto flyout.  Danny Almonte shut the Stars down in the first, but gave up the lead in the second mostly due to an inability to field his position.

With one out Oswipe Cabrera hit a slow roller towards the left side of the mound.  Almonte's delivery carried him over to the other side, he was slow to field the ball, and Cabrera beat out an infield hit.  One strikeout later, the same exact play happened off the weak bat of Cal Mathis.  2 on, 2 out, Forest Bush, Brian Kaat, and Billy Bass followed with conventional singles to put Miami up 3-1.

After a single and double in the 3rd, Almonte was relieved having given up 8 hits in 2.1 innings.  Felix Cabrera was able to pitch out of that jam, but the Stars really got busy in the 4th.  Miami scored 6 times off 3 Chicago pitchers, capped by a 3 run triple from Cal Mathis.

Brad Moulds pitched into the 8th allowing 3 runs, and Pat Jones finished the game to send Miami to the world series.
