SPB2-1972 A.L. Division Series #2 GAME 5
GAME 5:
Match-up: Gladiators: Tom Seaver (16-9 2.99) Dragons: Paul Splittorff (14-8 2.65)
Summary: Dragons clinch the series in front of the home fans, scoring 2 runs in the bottom of the 4th and holding on
for the victory and the series win.
Key moment: As unlikely as it was, a GDP by PH Rusty Staub emptied the bases before Ralph Garr homered in the top of the 8th. If
not for that DP, the game could have been tied and the entire complexion of the series could have been changed.
Player of the game: Paul Splittorff. 75025
W- Splittorf (2-0) L-Seaver (0-2) Sv- Forster (2) Dragons win series 4 games to 1
Series MVP goes to Paul Splittorff (2-0 1.42) with both wins vs. Tom Terrific.
Joe played a great series and all games were competitive. This one came down to execution and timely hitting.
