ALDS: "Kev-lar-ge" !!!



GAME 1 – Royals Stadium
Fidrych vs Appier
Tigers 3, Royals 0

KC nursed a 1-0 lead until the 7th when tablesetter Willie Wilson became a run producer with a 2 RBI single.  Kevin Appier went the distance with a 4 hit shutout.
Royals lead series 1-0

GAME 2
J.Robinson vs Saberhagen
Royals 3, Tigers 0

Same score as game 1.  This time Bret Saberhagen was locked and loaded as if it was an odd year.  He scattered 8 hits without yielding a run to put the Royals up 2-0 as the series heads to Motown.
Royals lead series 2-0

GAME 3 – Tiger Stadium
Gura vs J.Morris
Royals 6, Tigers 3

The ever so clutch Jack Morris was on his game for 6 innings of one run ball.  Unfortunately for Tiger fans he ran out of gas and there were no fire extinguishers to rescue him and the Tigers season.  Left to fend for himself Morris was victimized for 5 runs (2 in the 7th and 3 in the 8th) before Aurelio Lopez was mercifully summoned to rescue him.  Kevin Seitzer’s 3 run blast in the 8th broke the 3-3 tie and propelled the team with the best record in baseball to the LCS
Royals win series 3-0
