2047-00011: Talons Entire Pen Shines in 1-0, 17 Inning Win That Means Absolutely Nothing Because Team Will Miss Playoffs

Phoenix, AZ--

Talons fans last night were treated to a taught, 17 inning thriller of a victory against Charm City in which the entire Phoenix bullpen contributed.

Talons starter Tomas Ramirez started the game and threw 5 1/3 shutout innings, striking out six. Since the entire Talons rotation is on a strict pitch count, Ramirez gave way to the best bullpen in the JL, and they proved it again this night. Every single Phoenix reliever contributed to a performance that may be among the best in the BBA in quite some time, as all 7 bullpen arms allowed only 5 hits and two walks in a 15 strikeout clinic that totalled nearly 12 shutout innings of work.

Eventually, the Talons ended up winning on a run scoring single from backup 3B Jose Gonzales in the bottom of the 17th inning, sending the nearly 50k crowd home happy.

"See, sometimes we can actually play good baseball, even if we have to wait 17 innings for a measly run from this offense," said All Star reliever Tiernen O'Macken. "All in all though, it doesn't mean much because we'll just get eliminated on the final sim anyway. So whatever," he concluded.

Go Talons!
