UMEBA: Blowouts(FUBAR), Blowups, and walk offs Sim 9

[HerbD]

This sim gave us a little bit of everything and spread it out to just one per day up until the final day of the sim:

May 26, 2043
Manama 15 Baghdad 2 BLOW OUT
Led by the trio of Joshua Koka, Jeff Sherman, and Norberto Lozano the Pearls scored in six of nine innings and held the Kings to just two first inning runs outscoring them 15-0 the final eight frames. The three amigos combined for a batting line of 9-14, six runs scored, 12 RBI, three doubles, three homers, and two bases on balls.

Cairo 3 Kuwait City 4 WALK OFF
Trailing 3-1 going into the bottom of the ninth the Alhafr looked as if they were going to try to win it with small ball with a one out single followed by a base on balls. John Ginn would have none of that hitting a three run homer that landed 408 feet away to win the game.

May 28, 2043
Cairo 3 Kuwait City 4 10 INN WALK OFF
I could be wrong but this is the first time this season I can remember a team walking off another team in back to back games, especially with it ending in the same score. The Chariot Archers scored a run in the top of the ninth to tie the game and another in the top of the tenth to take the lead but Kuwait City would once again disappoint them with a late inning defeat. The bottom of the 10th started with a double by Shafer followed by a passed ball that moved him to third with no outs. Ripley drew a walk making it first and third. A Bordonhos sac fly tied the game before Ripley would score the winning run from first on a double by Hair.

May 29, 2043
Jerusalem 11 SCKA 5 BLOW UP
The Hebrew Hammers scored 10 of their 11 runs in the top of the fifth inning putting the game out of reach for the Army. The big inning included four doubles, two homers, two singles, and three walks. The most damaging blow came from a Martinez three run homer that was followed by a Hall solo shot.

May 30, 2043
Beirut 8 Manama 9 13 INN WALK OFF
Both starters were rocked early leaving the bullpens to decide the game which was scoreless from the top of the seventh when Beirut tied the game at eight to the bottom of the 13th when Jesus Flores walked it off with a one out, solo homer.

May 31, 2043
Mumbai 3 Libyan 4 WALK OFF
In the third 4-3 walk off of the week the Generals scored the winning run on an Alonso homer. It was the fifth blown save by the Metro Stars closer Silva while the Generals bullpen pitched three scoreless innings in the victory.

I could get used to this... the "three amigos"

Delgado gives up a walk and 2 hits in each (including a walk off) to earn back to back walkoff losses while watching his ERA climb by nearly 2 in .2 innings of work...ouch

Nice to be on the other side of a walk off every once in awhile
