SPB2-1974 N.L. Division Series #1


SPB2-1974 N.L. Division Series #1 GAME 1

Game 1. Jon Matlack vs Wilbur Wood. Atlanta Stadium. 25 game winner vs the midseason acquisition. The home side 
took an early lead, scoring two runs in the first inning on Paul Blair's solo shot and Willie Davis's single, 
scoring Toby Harrah. Matlack struggled in the first inning, issuing two walks and needing 37 pitches to record 
the first three outs. Heading into the top of the fifth, Wood had contained the Royal hitters, allowing only two 
singles and a walk.. In the top of the fifth, Montreal rallied to tie the game when Davey Lopes' ground out scored 
Gene Tenace, whose one-out double sent Henry Aaron to third who then scored on Bake McBride's single. Speedway took 
back the lead in the bottom of the fifth. Ron Leflore opened the inning with a double. Paul Blair then reached first 
on Ron Fairly's error, putting runners on the corners. Jack Aker replaced Matlack with Toby Harrah up. Aker induced 
a double play which scored Leflore. Jeff Burroughs then ended the inning grounding out to Aker. Aker pitched two 
more hitless innings to keep the Royals within one run. In the top of the eighth, with two out and Jerry Morales 
on first, Tom Heintzelman hit a double down the third base line. Manager Stan Barkun chose to send Morales home 
to score the tying run but he was thrown out at home by Ron Leflore. Wood was still in the game in the ninth 
inning but after a one-out single by Jose Cardenas, Goose Gossage came in and ended the game on a double play off 
the bat of Johnny Grubb. Speedway 3-2

SPB2-1974 N.L. Division Series #1 GAME 2

Game 2. Jim Palmer vs Ferguson Jenkins. Atlanta Stadium. Montreal opened the scoring in the first, scoring two 
runs on three hits. In the bottom of the first, Speedway halved the lead after Willie Davis hit a two-out solo 
home run. Neither team scored again until the seventh when Dave Concepcion's single scored George Brett. Jim Brewer 
relieved Jenkins and induced a double play off the bat of Johnny Grubb to keep the game close. The Royals added 
three insurance runs in the ninth inning to put the game out of reach. Jim Palmer was solid, pitching into the 
seventh allowing one run. Montreal 6-1

SPB2-1974 N.L. Division Series #1 GAME 3

Game 3. Jerry Reuss vs Steve Renko. Three Rivers Stadium. The first four innings were scoreless as the starting 
pitchers held both team's hitters to four singles total. In the fifth, Davey Lopes opened the scoring with his 
one-out solo home run. The Royals took a 2-0 lead in the sixth after three walks and a single led to Bake McBride's 
ground out. Reuss gave up only two runs in 5+ innings but was constantly in trouble giving up six hits and four walks. 
Steve Renko shut down the Sparkplug offense in the first seven innings allowing only two hits. Mike Cosgrove relieved 
Renko in the eighth with two on and one out and gave up a single to Andre Thornton scoring Jerry Grote with the Sparkplugs' 
first run. Bill Campbell quickly relieved Cosgrove. A ground out by Toby Harrah scored the tying run and Campbell escaped 
further damage after Willie Davis' flyout ended the inning. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth, Davey Lopes 
opened the inning singling to left. After stealing second, Tony Solaita's single scored Lopes with the winning run. Montreal 3-2

SPB2-1974 N.L. Division Series #1 GAME 5

Game 5: Ferguson Jenkins vs Jon Matlack. Three Rivers Stadium. All the scoring happened early. Montreal 
opened the scoring in the second after two two-out singles and Toby Harrah's error on a George Brett grounder 
loaded the bases. Jenkins then walked Dave Concepcion to score the game's first run. Speedway took the lead 
in the third on three singles, a walk and Andre Thornton's sac fly. That was the end of the scoring. Jenkins 
left with two out in the 8th, allowing one unearned run on seven hits. Matlack pitched seven complete, 
allowing two runs on five hits. Ken Holtzman got the last four outs for the save. Speedway 2-1

SPB2-1974 N.L. Division Series #1 GAME 6

Game 6. Jim Palmer vs Jerry Reuss. Atlanta Stadium. The Royals needed a big-time performance and Palmer 
delivered. The final score doesn't tell the tale to how close this game was. Montreal opened the scoring 
in the second when Elliot Maddox scored on Henry Aaron's groundout. The Royals extended the lead to two 
in the fourth when Ron Fairly scored on another Henry Aaron groundout. That's all Palmer needed as he 
threw a two-hit shutout. It took him only 104 pitches to tame the Sparkplug lineup. The Royals put five 
on the board in the ninth to skew the score. Montreal 7-0

SPB2-1974 N.L. Division Series #1 GAME 7

Game Seven. The best two words in sports. Steve Renko vs Wilbur Wood. After two outstanding starts 
in this series, Wood did not have it today. The Royals jumped on him early, putting four on the board 
in the first. The first four hitters reached base as the Royals sent nine men to the plate before the 
was over. The visitors extended their lead to five in the fifth after Bake McBride's single drove in 
Jerry Morales. The game seemed out of reach as the Royals held a 7-1 lead heading into the bottom of the 
eighth. The home side scored one in the eighth when John Lowenstein scored on a double play. In the bottom 
of the ninth, Royals closer Bill Campbell was sent in to end it. The first two hitters grounded out and it 
looked like the Royals were going to have a no-stress ninth but Campbell couldn't close it. A single and 
three walks later, Campbell was given the hook with the score 7-3, the bases loaded and the tying run at 
the plate in the form of Willie Davis. John Morlan was called upon to extinguish the rally and that's just 
what he did by inducing Davis to ground out. Montreal 7-3

MVP - Steve Renko. Two starts, two wins, 11 hits in 14 1/3 innings, all singles.

Thanks to Rick for a great series. A lot of close games. Apart from game seven, the biggest lead that any 
team had going into the seventh was two runs. Four times, the lead was one.
