SPB-4 1981 WORLD SERIES GAME 1
Game #1 of the 1981 World Series pitting the Baltimore Rifles against the Lafayette
Snow Bears began in the den of the White Ursas on a beautiful 82º day with a clear sky
and a negligible 4 MPH breeze blowing in from left.
On the mound for the visiting Rifles, the smart-money favorite to end Lafayette’s
rather improbable run, was the Baltimore phenom Fernando Valenzuela (25-3 with 20
complete games and a dead ball ERA of 2.01). Opposing Valenzuela was the Snow Bears’
third-year man who had emerged as one of the league’s star hurlers, Dave Stieb (21-9
with 10 complete games and an equally microscopic ERA of 2.02). For the baseball fan,
this was a little slice of Ray Kinsella’s heaven.
Immediately, in the bottom of the first, Lafayette struck as sub second sacker Bill
Stein lined a one out single to left center. Slugger Dave Winfield followed with a single
to left, and Stein, not so fleet of foot, managed to scamper to third. Buddy Bell then
grounded a seeing eye single up the middle to plate Stein and send the cautious Winfield
to second. Not finished, Lance Parrish, Lafayette’s receiver, doubled to deep right center,
driving in Winfield and allowing Bell to advance to third. Valenzuela proved his mettle by
striking out Jeff Leonard and Dave Henderson to end the Lafayette threat. Nevertheless,
the Snow Bears had moved out to a slender 2-0 lead.
In the top of the second, the visiting Rifles answered. Andre Dawson was plucked in the
ribs by a Stieb offering and took his base. Joe Nolan, not looked to as one of the Rifles’
big guns, grounded a single between first and second to send Dawson around to third base.
When Dave Concepcion grounded into a double play, Dawson raced home. Rick Manning grounded
out to end the inning. Baltimore, however, had cut the lead in half, trailing 2-1.
No threat emerged until the bottom of the 6th inning, as both aces had their way.
Valenzuela retired to the showers in the 6th, however, after he had yielded walks to
Lance Parrish, Jeff Leonard, and Dave Henderson, loading the bases with only one out.
Doug Corbett came in, inducing shortstop Chris Speier to ground to first and forcing
Parrish at home. Lafayette manager Ehresman allowed his ace Stieb to bat, and Dave promptly
struck out to end the Lafayette threat.
All told, chunky Baltimore hurler Valenzuela did little to contribute to the growing pandemic
of Fernando mania, as he lasted but 5.1 innings, while yielding 5 hits, 4 runs and an
uncharacteristic 4 walks. On the positive side of the ledger, Valenzuela showed his stuff
by whiffing 9 Snow Bear batsmen.
In the bottom of the 7th, after the traditional 7th Inning Stretch had been sung by guest
conductor Harry Bradshaw, architect of Lafayette’s Colt World Series baseball tournament,
the Snow Bears mounted another threat. With one out, new second sacker and steals leader
Julio Cruz grounded a single up the middle. After Dave Winfield walked, Baltimore turned to
Ron Reed to replace Corbett and snuff out the Lafayette rally. Cecil Cooper committed a blunder
in the field to load the bases. Taking a deep breath, Reed faced down Lance Parrish, who grounded
into an inning ending double play: Tony Bernazard to Dave Concepcion, to Cecil Cooper. Just
like that, Lafayette’s fire went out.
In the top of the 8th, Baltimore struck again. With one out, stalwart outfielder Tony Armas lined
a single to left. With two out, Tony Bernazard slammed a clutch double, driving in Armas, and
the game was all tied up at 2 apiece. Dave Stieb, obviously laboring, hit Cooper with a pitch
and promptly balked, putting Bernazard on third and Cooper on second. Who was advancing slowly
to the plate, swinging his bat in circles above his head? None other than Mike Schmidt (.291,
56 homers, 124 RBI). This was going to be the ball game, folks. Nope! Before he departed, Dave
Stieb issued an intentional pass to Make Schmidt.
Walking slowly to the mound, Manager Ehresman took the ball from Stieb, giving him a pat on the
back as he trudged toward the dugout. In recognition of Stieb’s artistry during the season and
his guts during game #1 of the Series, the hometown crowd applauded politely, but nervously.
Emerging from the Snow Bears’ bullpen was one of the top firemen in the league, Jeff Reardon
(48 games, 24 saves, and a teeny weenie 1.89 ERA for 1981).
After his warm up tosses were complete, Reardon faced Andre Dawson, no slouch with a .292 average,
27 home runs, and 114 RBI during 1981. Reardon got Dawson to ground to third, forcing Schmidt at
second to end the inning. Still, for Lafayette, the damage had been done, as the powerful visitors
from Crab Cake City had tied the game at deuces.
In the bottom of the 8th, new Baltimore reliever Luis Aponte held Lafayette in check, retiring Richie
Hebner, Joe Lefebvre, and Chris Speier, one-two-three. No sweat. Although Baltimore put two men on
in the top of the 9th against Reardon, the Lafayette fireman subdued the visitors.
In the bottom of the 9th, facing new Baltimore reliever Eric Show, Lafayette, having seen quite enough
of Baltimore’s explosive lineup, tried hard to end matters and avoid bonus baseball. With one out,
Mickey Rivers singled and stole second, but when Julio Cruz whiffed and Dave Winfield popped to short,
the Pale Ursas could not avoid extra frames against the Rifles.
With youngster Fred Breining on the mound for Lafayette as EI began, Cecil Cooper
grounded a one out single up the middle. Slugger Mike Schmidt again came up with a chance to inflict
damage on the home team, but he grounded into a Speier to Cruz to Hebner double play, and Lafayette
came to bat.
Leading off the bottom of the 10th, Buddy Bell hammered an Eric Show offering into the left field stands,
delivering a dramatic, extra innings, walk-off home run. Final score: Lafayette 3, Baltimore 2. The
Lafayette bench erupted. Manager Ehresman jumped to his feet and promptly conked his noggin on the
dugout ceiling. “It don’t hurt,” Ehresman quipped. “Been told I have a head full o’ mush. I guess it ain’t so.”
First to greet Bell at the plate was winner Dave Stieb, who went 7.2 innings, while giving up 6 hits,
1 walk, and only 2 runs. Thanks to superlative relief by Reardon and Breining, Stieb was all smiles as
he put his arms around the 10th inning hero Buddy Bell.
Lafayette had just pulled off the improbable. But it was only Game #1.

SPB-4 1981 WORLD SERIES GAME 2
With the Lafayette Snow Bears holding a 1-0 lead in the World Series, the second day
arrived, a temperate 70º day with a clear sky and a 10 MPH breeze blowing from right to
left. The mound opponents were another pair of accomplished 1981 hurlers: fire-balling
Nolan Ryan (18-6, 2.41 ERA) for visiting Baltimore and new Snow Bear Dennis Leonard (20-7,
2.17 ERA) for home town Lafayette.
For three innings, the mound aces dueled, with Leonard seemingly on top of his game. Whereas
Ryan had to get out of a bases loaded jam in the bottom of the 3rd, striking out his opponent
Leonard to stifle the Lafayette threat, old reliable Dennis was breezing, allowing but one hit
in three innings against the Rifles.
In the top of the 4th, however, something snapped for Leonard. Cecil Cooper led off with a
triple and scored on Mike Schmidt’s sacrifice fly. Leonard then plunked Andre Dawson with an
offering, sending the Baltimore slugger down to first. Joe Nolan again supplied unexpected
power, doubling down the right field line and sending Dawson all the way around to third.
Leonard walked Dave Concepcion intentionally to load the bases, but Rick Manning singled in
Andre Dawson, and Tony Armas singled to plate both Joe Nolan and Dave Concepcion. Baltimore had
a 4-0 lead and only one out.
Perspiring heavily, veteran Leonard thought he was out of trouble when his mound opponent Nolan
Ryan came to the plate. Ryan had other plans, however, and executed a perfect squeeze to knock
in Rick Manning for the 5th Baltimore tally of the inning. The nightmare ended when Tony Bernazard
flied out to center. Nevertheless, Lafayette’s light-hitting offense (no one with 100 RBI for the
season) faced a 5-0 deficit, going into the bottom of the 4th.
After Lafayette failed to score, the punishment continued in the top of the 5th, as Cecil Cooper
started the Rifles’ fusillade by grounding a single up the middle. Mike Schmidt then launched a
Leonard pitch down the left field line and deep into the seats.
Bingo! 7-0 Baltimore. After Dawson lined a single to shallow left, Randy Martz took the mound,
and Dave Bergman came in at 1B in a double switch by Lafayette. Joe Nolan, usually reliable in the
series, grounded into a double play. Concepcion, however, drew a walk to keep Baltimore going.
Mercifully for the Snow Bears, Rick Manning flied out to right.
Whereas Lafayette again went quietly, tamed by Nolan “The Express” Ryan at his finest, Baltimore
piled on in the 6th, turning a mere whipping into a blow out drubbing. Tony Armas led off with a
powerful circuit shot deep down the left field line. 8-0 Baltimore. Then Nolan Ryan, adding insult
to injury, lined a single between third and short, followed by Tony Bernazard’s double. With runners
on second and third, Lafayette executed another double switch: Larry Bradford took over in a mop up role
on the mound, and Jeff Leonard picked up a first baseman’s glove to take the field. When Cecil Cooper
grounded to short, Ryan scampered home: 9-0 visitors. Mike Schmidt followed with a double down the third
base line, plating Bernazard. 10-0 in favor of the Rifles. Dawson grounded to short, but Joe Nolan
(That catcher again!) singled to right, picking up the RBI, plating Schmidt and making this slaughter 11-0.
At last, Concepcion popped out to center. Holy Cow! Shades of the Yankees vs. the Pirates circa 1960, or
just the inevitable catching up with Lafayette? How about some legislation to protect the Snow Bears?
Not to leave well enough alone, the Rifles had more to say in the top of the 7th inning, as Barry Bonnell,
pinch hitting for Rick Manning, reached on an infield single to short. Out trudged Jeff Jones to replace
Larry Bradford. Bill Stein came in at third for Lafayette’s third double switch. Lance Parrish promptly
was charged with a passed ball, and Tony Armas whiffed. Not finished with his plate heroics, Nolan Ryan
then lined a single down the left field line, scoring Bonnell for the 12th Baltimore run. Mercifully,
Tony Bernazard and Cecil Cooper recorded outs to end the top of the 7th.
Nothing of significance occurred until the bottom of the 9th inning, as the wounded Snow Bears came to
bat, trailing 12-0. After he yielded back-to-back walks to Ricky Peters and Dave Winfield, Baltimore’s
hero Nolan Ryan gave way to Baltimore’s bullpen monster, Al “the Mad Hungarian” Hrabosky. You just
can’t be too sure!
Mickey Rivers came in to pinch hit for Jones and singled to left, driving in Peters and sending Winfield
to third. Young Dave Henderson sent a sacrifice fly to left, scoring Winfield. To extend the Lafayette
rally, Jeff Leonard doubled down the left field line, sending Rivers to third. Capping the scoring for
the Snow Bears, Lance Parrish hit a sacrifice fly to center, and the fleet Rivers scored. When Chris Speier
grounded to second, the game came to an end. Rifles 12 and Lafayette 3.
Nolan Ryan! Wow! The veteran hurled 8 innings, yielding but 4 hits, 4 walks, and 2 runs. Strangely,
he whiffed but 1 Snow Bear. Also uncharacteristically, Ryan drove in 2 runs for the visiting Rifles.
On the other side of the diamond, Lafayette was left to wonder what had happened to Dennis Leonard, so
dominant and unhittable during the 1981 season, but completely ineffective against the visiting Baltimore
crew: 4 innings, with 8 hits and 7 runs. Ironically, Leonard walked but 1 and struck out 5, showing up
Ryan, but this was no consolation to the veteran, who hung his head and refused to speak to reporters after
the loss. Rumors that Leonard was “hurt” or had “a tired arm” were whispered by “unnamed sources” outside
the Lafayette club house.
With a day to re-group, the Snow Bears were now forced to jump from the proverbial frying pan into the
fire, as the Series shifted from Royals Stadium to Fulton County Stadium, right into the middle of
Baltimore’s explosive arsenal.

SPB-1 1981 WORLD SERIES GAME 3
The Rifles came home off of a big game 2 win and sent 20 game winner Larry Gura to the mound.
Lafayette countered with 15 game winner Pete Vukovich. The Rifles jumped out to an early 1-0
in the 2nd inning with a Bruce Benedict RBI sac fly. The Snow Bears put up single runs in
the 4th, 5th, and 6th with two Lance Parrish homers sandwiching a Mickey Rivers RBI single
in the 5th. Lafayette put up 2 more in the 7th on a fielders choice by Dave Winfield and a
Buddy Bell RBI single to post a comfortable 5-1 lead. But Vukovich was the hero giving up
only the single run in the second while going the distance with 8 K’s to put the Snow Bears
up again 2 games to 1.

SPB-4 1981 WORLD SERIES GAME 4
The Rifles brought back game 1 starter and their ace Fernando Valenzuela to start game
4 versus 17 game winner Burt Hooton of the Snow Bears. A pitchers duel was broken up in
the 4th by the hot Lance Parrish who stroked a 2 run homer to put Lafayette up 2-0.
In the 6th pinch hitter Richie Hebner had a solo shot and an unearned run in the 7th put
Lafayette up 4-0. Meanwhile Hooton was in control hurling 7 shutout innings. The
Rifles finally got on the board in the 8th on a groundout by Mike Schmidt. In the 9th
Baltimore mounted a 2 out rally with 3 straight hits to close the score to 4-2. But
after giving up a run scoring double, closer Jeff Reardon induced Tony Bernazard to
ground out to short and put Lafayette up 3 games to 1, just a victory away from a world
championship.

SPB-4 1981 WORLD SERIES GAME 5
With their backs to the wall the Redbirds started game 2 winner Nolan Ryan to face
game 1 starter and Snow Bear ace Dave Stieb. Baltimore scored first when Andre Dawson
popped a two run homer in the third. In the 6th Dave Winfield’s solo shot closed the
gap to 2-1. Baltimore added a run in the 7th on a Tony Bernazard single to increase their
lead to 3-1. In the 8th rookie reliever Eric Show gave up a Winfield run scoring double
followed by a game tying Buddy Bell single before lefty Kevin Hickey induced Jim Lefebvre into
an inning ending double play. A scoreless 9th sent the game into extra innings and the final
resolution didn’t come until the bottom of the 12th on a game winning single by Andre Dawson
which kept Baltimore alive with a 4-3 win, but still trailing in the series 2 games to 3. On
to Lafayette for game 6.

SPB-4 1981 WORLD SERIES GAME 6
Smarting a bit from their inability to “close the deal” in Baltimore, the Lafayette Snow Bears
returned to Lafayette’s Royals stadium for the sixth game of this roller-coaster series. On a
warm 84º day under cloudy skies with a 10 MPH wind blowing from right to left, the White Ursas
sent Dennis Leonard back to the mound to oppose the increasingly confident Baltimore Rifles.
John Martin, a little known lefty, called upon by Baltimore to pitch the crucial 6th game, the
game of Martin’s life.
The Rifles greeted Leonard rudely, scoring 2 runs in the top of the first, Cecil Cooper drew a
one out walk and scored as Mike Schmidt homered deep to left. Although Leonard got out of the
first with no further damage, his chances for redemption after a rocky Game #2 were in jeopardy.
On the other hand, Schmidt, whom some had called a goat, was enjoying the moment as his big bat
had come alive and had powered his team to a 2-0 first inning lead.
Striking back, the cornered Bears drew blood in the bottom of the frame. Pesky Julio Cruz lined
a single up the middle and with one out, stole second. Dave Winfield walked, but when he and
Cruz attempted a double steal Baltimore’s catcher Joe Nolan threw big Dave out at second.
Fortunately for Lafayette, Buddy Bell, consistent throughout the series, singled in Cruz to bring
the Bears within a single run, 2-1. Winfield was still hanging his head, however, mourning the
blown prospect of a tie game.
Things were quiet until the top of the third, when the wheels came off for Dennis Leonard and the
Snow Bears. Pitcher John Martin, rising to the occasion both on the mound and at the dish, led
off with a double. “Mr. Trouble,” Tony Bernazard, who always seemed to come up in a clutch situation,
reached on an infield single, sending Martin all the way to third. Yes, there was trouble here, Cheri!
Left fielder Dave Winfield continued in his “goat” role, as he made an error on a Cooper fly ball.
Martin scored; Bernazard went to third; and Cooper slid into second.
After Mike Schmidt was given an intentional pass by the struggling Leonard, Andre “The Giant” Dawson
unloaded DEEP to left for a “grand salami,” and the visitors had jumped out to a 7-1 advantage.
After Joe Nolan doubled, the desperate Bears turned to Larry Bradford, but the mischief was not yet over.
Dave Concepcion lined a single to center, and Nolan raced to third. When Rick Manning grounded
out to second, Nolan scored, to push the Rifles’ advantage to 8-1. Bradford was able to pitch
his way out of the rest of the nightmare inning, but the die had been cast. The Snow Bears were,
officially, a “threatened” species. Their prospects for finishing the Series in 6 games all but gone.
The Snow Bears tried to mount a mini-rally in the bottom of the fateful 3rd inning. With two out,
Winfield made it to second on an Andre Dawson error in center, and reliable, steady Buddy Bell, a
new Bear in 1981, singled him in for an 8-2 game. Although Lance Parrish, who had been carrying a
mean stick for Lafayette, doubled Bell to third, Richie Hebner popped to short, and the mini-rally
expired.
Not done, the Rifles tried to pile on in the 4th frame. With two out, Andre Dawson continued to
punish Lafayette pitching by doubling down the right field line. Bruce Benedict, a light-hitting
defensive replacement, pinch hit for Joe Nolan. Bradford uncorked a wild pitch, sending Dawson
to third, and Benedict made the Bears pay by doubling down the right field line to plate Dawson.
9-2 read the ledger.
Another mini-rally in the bottom of the 4th for Lafayette, but a dripping faucet has a long way
to go before it can match a torrent. Giving Lafayette some hope, youngster Dave Henderson homered
deep to right to lead off the 4th. Although Lafayette put on Billy Smith, a pinch hitter, and Julio
Cruz, the lead-off hitter, Mickey Rivers grounded out, and Dave Winfield lined out to center,
killing the possibility for a slow, chipping- away- at- the -lead comeback for the Snow Bears.
That was pretty much the ball game, although the Snow Bears had one last gasp in the bottom of the 9th.
Trailing 9-3, the Bears tallied for the last time as Jeff Leonard homered deep down the left field line.
Too little. Far, far too little.
The game was in the books: a 9-2 drubbing in favor of Baltimore, and a 3-3 series tie. Today
belonged to unheralded, underappreciated John Martin, who in a “there is no tomorrow” scenario, held
Lafayette in check. Throwing a complete game, resting the fatigued Baltimore bullpen, Martin yielded
11 hits, but only 4 runs (3 earned), striking out 1, but walking only 2.
Grinning from ear to ear, Martin said, “Anything can happen in this game. We’ve been playing with our
backs to the wall. Tomorrow we get to play for all the marbles.”
In the emptying Lafayette clubhouse, Dennis Leonard, veteran of many campaigns, rubbed his forehead and
contemplated his future. Trying to be upbeat, Manager Ehresman said, “We got “Vucky” on the mound tomorrow.
He’s been a hoss all year. The fans deserve a win. The guys are gonna be ready.”
Which “guys,” however remaining a question.

SPB-4 1981 WORLD SERIES GAME 7
Game #7 of the World Series. Baseball’s High Noon. The Gunfight at the O.K. Corral.
After a memorable Series, it all came down to Lafayette’s Pete Vuckovich vs. Baltimore’s
Larry Gura on a 74º day with a clear sky and an 11 MPH wind, blowing from left to right.
The Rifles wasted no time, making a statement in the top of inning one. Cecil Cooper, the
rally starter, grounded a single up the middle with one out. Mike Schmidt, eager to make
amends for a disappointing Series, struck out. Andre Dawson knew how to deliver big hits,
however, as he singled down the left field line, sending Cooper to third. Rick Manning lined
a single down the right field line to drive in Dawson. Armas grounded out to end the top of
the first with Baltimore out in front 1-0.
A gloomy calm lay like a blanket across Lafayette’s Royals stadium until the bottom of the
fourth inning, when, with two out, Buddy “Ol’ Reliable” Bell drew a walk. Lance Parrish,
enjoying a monster series, grounded a double down the third base line—JUST FAIR—and Buddy Bell,
thinking “now or never,” scored from first. Then, veteran and new 1981 Royal Richie Hebner
grounded a single between first and second, and Parrish, running hard all the way, scored,
while Hebner took second on the throw. Although Dave Henderson flied out to end the frame,
the hometown Bears enjoyed a 2-1 advantage.
In the top of the 6th, Baltimore mounted a threat that drained the Lafayette bullpen. With
one out, Rick Manning reached on a single, and Tony Armas walked. With great daring, Baltimore
executed a double steal, putting Manning on third and Armas on second. Dave Concepcion was
walked intentionally, and that was all for Vuckovich. Gary Lucas came into the game, and
Baltimore pinch hit Joe Nolan for Bruce Benedict. Nolan popped to short. Barry Bonnell then
pinch hit for starter Larry Gura. To counter Bonnell’s potent bat against left-handers, Lafayette
turned to shut down artist Jeff Reardon, and, wheels turning, Baltimore put Gene Roof at the plate
for Bonnell. Reardon reached back, threw his best country hard ball, and whiffed Roof to end the inning.
Wow! A lot of chess playing by both squads, but the score remained 2-1 in favor of the Snow Bears.
In the bottom of the 6th, Lafayette mounted their own charge, trying desperately to add to
their slim 1-run lead against the powerhouse Rifles. In a “no tomorrow” move, Baltimore turned
to phenom Fernando Valenzuela, who quickly got into trouble. Julio Cruz, doing his best Ricky
Henderson impersonation (without power), grounded a single to right and swiped second. None out.
Valenzuela then struck out Lafayette’s goat, Dave Winfield. Dave Concepcion brought the hometown
fans to their feet, as he muffed a ground ball, sending Cruz to third and putting Buddy Bell on first.
Sensing that Fernando did not have it, Baltimore turned to Ron Reed, who struck out the dangerous Lance
Parrish. Richie Hebner, wanting to add a World Series victory to his long career, lined a single to
right center, scoring Cruz for a 3-1 Lafayette advantage. Pinch hitter Joe Lefebvre, having a miserable
Series, lined out to center to end the Lafayette 6th.
In the top of the 7th, Baltimore began their home stretch run. Tony Bernazard, a real pest throughout
the Series, grounded a lead off single between first and second, sending Jeff Reardon to the showers.
Randy Martz came in to face the ever-dangerous, ever-reliable Cecil Cooper, who promptly grounded
into a double play. Adding to Lafayette’s mounting anticipation of a hard-fought World Series
triumph, Martz whiffed Mike Schmidt.
Neither team could push across a run, although both teased, especially Lafayette in the bottom of
the 8th inning. With Kevin Hickey now on the mound for Baltimore, Buddy Bell lined a one-out
single between third and short to bring Doug Corbett out of the Rifles’ pen. Rick Manning came
into right field, and super outfield sub Lee Mazzilli switched over to left, strengthening the
Baltimore outfield by adding speed, defense, and throwing arms. Parrish, always a threat, flied
to left for the second out. Dave Bergman, in at first base for Richie Hebner, singled to right,
but Bell could only make it to third. Facing the new Baltimore hurler Al Hrabosky, Joe Lefebvre,
a reliable 1981 bat during the season but a flop in the Series, grounded out to second to end the
Lafayette threat. Close. Nothing. Still 3-1. Fateful.
A year comes down to the top of the 9th inning of the 7th game of a memorable World Series. With
a tired bullpen, Lafayette turned to Burt Hooton, stalwart during the season and tough as nails in
game #4 of the Series. Immediately, Dave Concepcion doubled. Joe Nolan, another clutch bat for
Baltimore, reached on an infield single to Speier, who could not record an out. Runners on first
and third. No one out. Hooton laboring. Lee Mazzilli then drew a walk to load the bases. Tired
Dave Stieb got up in the Lafayette bullpen. Hooton took a deep breath and faced Tony Bernazard.
Every World Series has memorable moments. A few have moments that will live for the Ages. Tony
Bernazard delivered a moment for the Ages. A grand slam home run, deep into the left field seats.
A stunned Lafayette crowd sat in disbelief. A wild Tony Bernazard circled the bases. A nervous
Baltimore bench erupted into spontaneous joy.
Hooton got Cooper to pop to third, but when Schmidt drew a walk, Lafayette turned to Dave Stieb,
who induced the dangerous Andre Dawson to ground into a double play. Nevertheless, the damage had
been done. The climax had been reached. Now, all that remained was the falling action, Lafayette’s
bottom of the 9th.
One. Two. Three. A Baltimore victory 5-3. A celebration on the wrong field by the wrong team.
A World Series for the Ages. As the Rifles rolled in the grass like Little Leaguers, the Snow Bears
trudged away, disappearing one by one into the clubhouse. Not the ending they had had in mind.
Tony Bernazard, MVP for the World Series, could not say enough about his team’s come-from-behind
World Series victory. After facing elimination 3 games to 1, the Rifles had won 3 straight,
hard-fought games to claim the SPB 1981 World Series title. When asked what he intended to do now,
Tony smiled and said, “I’m going to Disney World, but it can’t live up to this.” Nothing can, Tony.
Nothing can
