Warpigs 2, FFTs 2

Netplay...

@ FFT Field

Game 1 - Warpigs win 10-0. Jose Fernandez (12-4, 1.89 ERA) and bullpen shut out the FFTs. A.J. Pollock and Yonder Alonso both homer for the Pigs.

Game 2 - Warpigs win 6-4. Adam Wainwright (17-6, 1.98 ERA) and the Pigs were cruising with a 6-0 lead when the Pigpen almost let it get away. Casey Fien came on for his 16th save. Yadier Molina went 4-4 with 2 doubles and 3 RBI.

Game 3 - FFTs win 7-2. What a difference the starting pitcher makes. Wily Peralta (7-15, 3.76) wasn't bad but could not equal the success of the previous two Pig pitchers and took the loss. The Pigpen took most of the beating, giving up 2 runs in both the 8th and 9th. Hunter Pence went 4-5 for the FFTs, and Mike Carp drove in 3 runs. Martin Perez went 5 innings for the win.

Game 4 - FFTs win 9-4. Zack Wheeler (2-9, 6.17) was bad. As usual. The Pigpen was bad. As usual. Except for Carlos Martinez, who somehow managed to throw 4 shutout, no-hit innings after the score was already 9-4. Prince Fielder and Lorenzo Cain both had 2 hits and 3 RBI for the FFTs. The Pigs actually outhit the FFTs this game 14-10. Yusmeiro Petit started for the FFTs but was pulled after the first eight Warpig hitters went 6-7 with a SacFly against him. Chris Capuano got the win in relief, but the real star was Blake Parker, who matched Martinez with 4 innings of shutout relief, allowing only 2 hits.
