World Series Game 3

Florida's ace Peter Buchanon took the mound against Brad Moulds, and the two lefties traded zeros until the 3rd.  With one on, Ezekiel Duke homered.  Miami got one back in the 5th as Daniel Smith hit a solo homer.  Moulds left after 5 despite a low pitch count and a 5 run, 2 hit, 2 run outing.  Manager Duke preferred to get right handed relievers in for the 3rd time through the order against a Florida team that has mostly right handed batters.  He choose the wrong reliever though in Tom Knight.  Knight allowed back to back singles, then Alex Maldonado took him deep for a 3 run homer.  One walk later, and Gromit took Tim Sullivan deep to make it a 7-1 game.  Chip Atkinson would also homer before the inning came to a close.

Miami loaded the bases with nobody out in the 8th, but Darrell Tibbs came on to strand the runners, and then close out the 9th inning.  Miami lost 8-1 and now faces a 3-0 series deficit.
