SPB1-1983 ALCS


SPB1-1983 ALCS GAME 1

Game 1, @ Edmonton

John Denny vs. Rich Dotson

It was clear from the first inning that this would not be a pitchers’ duel. The Metropolitans 
drew first blood, as Mike Easler doubled in Fred Lynn in the first frame. In the bottom of the 
inning, the home team rebounded, as Denny loaded the bases, and Pat Putnam tripled in all three 
runs, scoring himself on Gary Gaetti’s sac. Fly. When he took the mound to start the 2nd, Dotson 
was still shaky, giving up rbi singles to Steve Sax and Fred Lynn. He did, however, settle down, 
enough to keep the Mets at bay. Until the fateful fifth inning, at least. After retiring Sax for 
the first out, Dotson watched as Lynn, then Pedro Guerrero, then Mike Easler went back-to-back-to-back. 
After getting Mickey Hatcher to ground harmlessly to first, he walked Bill Buckner, and turned 
around to follow the trajectory of Ernie Whitt’s 2-run homer. Magpies reliever Roy Lee Jackson 
gave up yet another homer to Lynn. But there was more drama to come. Ron Hassey doubled in two 
runs in the 8th off Mets reliever Gary Lavelle, and Juan Beniquez doubled home another run, bringing 
the tying run to the plate. But Steve Bedrosian struck out pinch-hitter Mike Heath to end the threat 
and the game. The 4-home-run inning was too much for the Magpies to handle and sent them reeling, 
expecting an early exit from the playoffs.

Metropolitans win 9-7. WP: Denny, LP: Dotson, Sv, Bedrosian. New York leads 1-0.

SPB1-1983 ALCS GAME 2

Game 2. @Edmonton

Paul Splittorff vs. Bob Ojeda

A battle of two dominating lefties colored the 2nd game of the series, but Magpies starter 
Bob Ojeda found himself in an early hole. Carney Lansford stroked a 2-run homer in the first 
inning, and after Splittorff mowed down the Magpies, the Metropolitans plated two more in the 
2nd. The Magpies got one run back in the 3rd inning, as Ivan DeJesus singled in Garth Iorg. 
But when the Metropolitans began the 6th inning with Fred Lynn and Cliff Johnson going back-to-back 
against Ojeda, the nail was in the coffin. The Magpies indeed were destined for a short exit. 
Spittorff retired the side in the 6th and 7th, then showed signs of tiring in the 8th. Pinch-hitter 
Hostetler walked to lead off the inning, was wild-pitched to 2nd, and was doubled home by Reid 
Nichols, narrowing the lead to 6-2. Steve Bedrosian, who had struck out the only batter he faced 
in Game 1, came on for the save. Quickly, he induced DeJesus and Dewey Evans to fly out harmlessly 
to the outfield. But Beniquez, who had entered the game as a pinch-runner for Ken Singleton, 
singled in Nichols, making it 6-3. Gaetti walked, then, suddenly, Gary Gaetti stroked a 3-run 
homer to tie the score. Randy Moffitt pitched a 1-2-3 9th for the Magpies, and Steve Howe answered 
for the Mets. In the 10th, Roy Lee Jackson struggled, but escaped without allowing any runs to 
score. In the bottom of the 10th, DeJesus led off with a single and after Howe K-d Evans, Beniquez 
doubled DeJesus to 3rd. Gaetti grounded to 3rd, and Williams took a chance by sending the runner, 
who miraculously beat the throw, ending the game.
 
Magpies 7 Metropolitans 6, in 10 innings. WP-Roy Lee Jackson, LP-Steve Howe. Series tied 1-1.

SPB1-1983 ALCS GAME 3
Game 3. @New York

Bert Blyleven mesmerized the shell-shocked Metropolitans, keeping the home team hitless for 
four innings, until Hatcher drilled a homer to spoil the no-hitter and the shut-out. In the 
meanwhile, Gary Gaetti had tripled in a run in the 2nd and scored on a squeeze play. DeJesus 
knocked in a 3rd run in the inning. Blyleven singled in a 4th run in the 3rd. After Hatcher’s
home run, the Mets did threaten in the 8th, as Lefebvre opened the frame with a pinch-hit home 
run. But Blyleven hung on for the complete game win.

Magpies 4 Metropolitans 2. WP Bert Blyleven, LP Jose DeLeon. Magpies lead series 2-1.

SPB1-1983 ALCS GAME 4


Game 4. @New York

Rich Dotson vs. John Denny.

The pitchers duel promised for the first game materialized in Game 4. After Pat Putnam singled 
in a 1st-inning run for the visitors, the two aces matched pitch for pitched, with no change in 
the scoring until the 7th inning, when a Cliff Johnson sac fly tied the score. Dwight Evans 
homered in the top of the 8th to put the Magpies ahead, but the powerful Mets had six outs to 
make up a simple one-run deficit. Dotson, however, had other ideas, retiring all three batters 
in the 8th on infield grounders. In the top of the 9th, unable to afford the Magpies any more 
scoring opportunities, manager Don Rahn brought in the unhittable Victor Cruz. Pinch-hitter John 
Wockenfuss singled, and was moved to third on Gaetti’s double. After walking Ron Hassey deliberately, 
Rahn brought in Steve Howe. Pinch-hitter Garth Iorg flew out harmlessly to left, for the inning’s 
first out, but Hostetler, pinch-hitting for Dotson, drilled the third pitch he saw into the left 
field stands, a grand slam. The air was let out of the Mets’ balloon, and though they were able to 
put 2 batters on against hit-prone Magpies reliever Jamie Eatserly, Randy Moffitt came on to strike 
out Adams and get Maddox to pop to short to end the game and the series.
 
Magpies 6 Metropolitans 1. WP-Rich Dotson 1-1, LP, Gary Lavelle.

Magpies win the series and get the “prize” of facing the juggernaut Vaqueros. All games were played H2H.

Congratulations to Don Rahn and the New York Metropolitans on an excellent season.
