Fairfax Peppers vs. Rockford Forest Citys
SPB1-1981 NLCS GAME 1
Game 1, October 2, 1981 at Rockford
Starters: Peppers - Sorenson (15-11 3.00 ERA) vs. Forest Citys – Gullickson (19-7 2.48 ERA)
A beautiful sunny fall day in Rockford as Manager Baxter sends his ace Gullickson to face
Fairfax in game 1 of the series. Bill sets the Peppers down in order in the top of the first.
The Citys get a walk from Lou Whitaker and a single from Bill Buckner in the bottom half of
the 1st, but Sorenson induces Cromartie to fly out to end the inning.
Both starters trade zeros until the bottom of the 6th when Rockford strikes. Whitaker walks,
Durham singles and Sorenson then balks, moving the runners to 2nd and 3rd. Sorenson is visibly
upset and allows a fly ball from Buckner deep enough to score Whitaker. Cromartie singles home
Durham and Knight singles before Sorenson bears down and gets Bruce Benedict to ground into an
inning ending DP. 2-0 Rockford after 6.
Keith Hernandez works a walk to open the top of the 7th but dies on first as Gullickson retires
the side in order.
The wheels come off the cart for the Peppers in the bottom of the 7th. PH Milbourne doubles and
Gullickson singles him to 3rd. After a flyout by Moreno. Whitaker walks again to load the bases.
Durham lines a double and plates all three runners. Stoddard comes into the game and retires the
next two hitters, but the damage is done. Citys 5 Peppers 0.
Gullickson sails into the 9th with a SHO and gets Mookie Wilson to ground out. Up steps veteran
Rick Monday and he slams a HR. Gullickson gets the last two hitters to preserve the win, a 3-hitter.
Forest Citys 5 Peppers 1 WP Gullickson 1-0 LP Sorenson 0-1.
Durham 2-4 and 3 RBI; Whitaker 1-1, 3 walks and 2 run scored.

SPB1-1981 NLCS GAME 2
Game 2, October 3, 1981 at Rockford
Starters: Peppers - Dotson (15-10 3.31 ERA) vs. Forest Citys – Burns (14-10 2.91 ERA)
A windy day in Rockford. The Peppers immediately jump on Burns as Juan Bonilla singles,
Elliott Maddox singles him to third and Davis drives in a run with another single. Mookie
Wilson singles to load the bases but Burns strikes out Terry Kennedy to end the inning.
1-0 Peppers after ½ inning.
The Citys threaten in the bottom of the 1st as regular season stolen base champion Omar Moreno
leads off with a single and steals 2nd. Whitaker flys out to LF and Moreno decides to take 3B
off weak armed Doug Davis. That doesn’t end well as he is cut down at 3rd ending the scoring chance.
The Peppers add another run in the 3rd as Keith Hernandez singles, steals second and comes
home on a single by DeCinces. 2-0 Peppers after 2 1/2 innings.
Both Pitchers hurl zeros until the top of the 6th when Fairfax blows the game open. After a
leadoff 3B by DeCinces and a foul out by Mookie, Kennedy walks. UL Washington doubles home
DeCinces but Dotson fouls out and it looks like Burns will get out of the jam. Manager Baxter
elects to leave the lefty in to face righty Juan Bonilla. Bonilla HRs to make it 6-0 and Forester
relieves Burns to get the last out.
The Forest Citys threaten in the bottom of the 8th with a couple of singles, but Dotson gets out
of the jam. Rich completes the 6 hit SHO allowing a meaningless single in the 9th.

SPB1-1981 NLCS GAME 3
Game 3, October 5, 1981 at Fairfax
Starters: Peppers - John (14-10 2.88 ERA) vs. Forest Citys – Williams (14-12 3.38 ERA)
A mild clear day in Fairfax for game 3. A couple of singles by both teams in the first 3 innings,
but DPs end 2 threats for the Citys and one for the Peppers.
In the bottom of the 4th, Fairfax threatens. Maddox singles, but Hernandez grounds into a 5-43
DP. DeCinces walks and Kennedy lines a double down the 1st baseline but the 3rd base coach declines
to send Doug against rifle armed Warren Cromartie. Leon Roberts flys out to Warren and the
threat evaporates.
In the bottom of the 6th, the Peppers load the bases with 2 out on 2 singles and a walk, but Hernandez
grounds to Ray Knight to end the threat. 0-0 after 6.
Still 0-0 in the top of the 8th. Ray Knight leads off with a double. DeJesus singles him to 3rd.
Tom Brunansky pinch hits and, with the middle infielders at DP depth, promptly grounds into a DP,
Kuiper to Washington to Hernandez with Knight scoring on the play. At the end of 8 it is 1-0 Citys.
Flame thrower George Frazier comes in to pitch the bottom for the 8th for Rock Island and sets down
the Peppers in order. Rock Island threatens in the 9th, loading the bases, but Beard gets out of the jam.
Frazier comes out for the bottom of the 9th with Goose Gossage warming in the pen. Kuiper grounds
out but Washington singles and in comes Goose. PH Monday strikes out, but Wilson grounds a single
and moves the tying run to second. Doug Davis PHs and grounds a ball that Ray Knight boots to load
the bases. Keith Hernandez comes to the plate with the game on the line. On a 1-2 count, Hernandez
lines out to defensive star Cromartie and the Forest Citys win 1-0!

SPB1-1981 NLCS GAME 4
Game 4, October 6, 1981 at Fairfax
Starters: Peppers – Ed Lynch (11-7 2.78 ERA) vs. Forest Citys – Steve Stone (2-10 5.06 ERA)
Future Cubs GM Ed Lynch starts for the Peppers while Baxter goes with veteran Steve Stone.
The Peppers get to Stone for 3 hits and a run in the bottom of the first as Hernandez doubles
and DeCinces singles him home. 1-0 Peppers.
Stone is sent to the showers in the bottom of the 3rd. Mookie Wilson triples to lead off the
frame and Maddox brings him home with a groundout to 2B. Hernandez walks, DeCinces singles and
Kennedy walks to load the bases. Roberts flys out to shallow RF. Stone may get out of trouble,
but has to get pesky Juan Bonilla to do so. Not happening as Juan singles home 2 runs. Inexplicable,
Baxter leaves Stone in and he promptly walks UL Washington. McGlothen relies Stony and gets Lynch
to fly out to end the inning. 5-0 Peppers after 4 innings.
The Citys add single runs in the 4th and 9th, but it is not enough as the Peppers also score twice
more including a HR by hitting star Mookie Wilson. Final: Peppers 7 Forest Citys 2.
W Lynch (1-0) L Stone (0-1)

SPB1-1981 NLCS GAME 5
Game 5, October 7, 1981 at Fairfax
Starters: Peppers – Sorenson (0-1) vs. Forest Citys – Gullickson (1-0)
Sunny and warm in Fairfax. The final game of the series features a rematch of
starters from Game 1.
The Citys strike first in the 2nd. Cromartie singles, Milbourne singles up the middle
and Cromartie gets the green light to go for 3rd. Mookie Wilson airmails the throw and
Cro scores the first run of the game. 1-0 Forest Citys.
Peppers get a 1B to lead off the bottom of the second, but a DP finishes that threat.
Sorenson gets the first two hitters out in the top of the 3rd, but Lou Whitaker then walks.
Leon Durham doubles him home. 2-0 Citys.
UL Washington leads off with a double in the bottom of the 3rd, but Sorenson fails to move
him to 3rd. Wilson flies out and Monday strikes out.
The Peppers get on the board in the bottom of the 4th. DeCinces doubles and goes to 3rd on
a flyout. Benedict can’t find the handle on a Gullickson pitch and Decinces scores.
Game tied 1-1.
Fairly quiet until the top of the 6th. After Buckner grounds out, Durham doubles. Manager
Peterson goes to the pen and brings in Jerry Johnson. He strikes out Cromartie and Milbourne
grounds out. Still tied at 1-1.
Gullickson continues his game 1 mastery of the Pepper’s hitters breezing through the 6th.
Top of the 7th and Jim Beattie is not on the mound for Fairrfax. Rockford gets a one out single
from Bruce Benedict. Sixto Lezcano PHs for Gullickson and singles. UL Washington drops a foul
popup by Moreno and the Peppers pay for it as Moreno walks. After Whitaker pops out, Beattie
faces Leon Durham with 2 outs and the bases load. Leon lines a single to right and the Citys
take the lead 3-1.
Frazier comes in to pitch and sets the Peppers down in the 7th and 8th. Top of the 9th, the
Citys add 2 more on a run scoring 3B by Whitaker and a single by Durham (who else!). 5-1 Citys
entering the bottom of the 9th.
Frazier comes out for the 9th and promptly gives up a double to Monday. The fans are wondering
why Baxter does not bring in Goose, but Frazier gets Hernandez to fly out and DeCinces to
ground out. Kennedy doubles home Monday and Gossage finally comes in. He strikes out Leon Roberts
and the Citys are National League Champions!
WP (Gullickson 2-0) LP Beattie (0-1) Save Gossage (2).
Durham 3-5, 2B, 3 RBI 3 errors by the Peppers allow 3 unearned runs.
Co-MVPs: Durham 7-15, 2- 2B and 6 RBI. Bill Gullickson 2-0 0.60 ERA, 13k and 2 BB in 15 IP.
