Wedge Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 what about Randy Johnson? Didn't Beckett do it, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punch and Judy Garland Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Unit got the win because it was a tied game. Beckett came out of the pen for NLCS game 7, he finished the World Series with a complete game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you never saw Little Big League. RJ definitely got the save in that game. BTW, I know it wasn't a World Series game, but whenever there's a chance to cite that movie, I have to comment on it.

Kid Gleason Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 I watched the game last night, saw the whole thing. Watched the post game. But for some reason, something on the radio caused me to laugh: Winning pitcher: Marte Save: Buehrle It's sooooo damned Twilight Zone like!!!

It's amazing how great Lou hung in against the tough lefty. You really have to question giving Griffey Jr. something good to hit earlier in the game though.

bjm676 Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 (edited) He's also the first pitcher ever to get a start and earn a save in consecutive World Series games. Edited October 26, 2005 by robinventura23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
