2006 World Series; Game 3
From Lp2 Wiki
Led by Manny, the Flashes win first Lp2 World Series Game
Back with the comforts of their home stadium, the Finger Lakes Flashes had the bats going, and used their 12 hit attack to pull the series to 2 games to 1.
Manny Ramirez set the tone with his solo homer in the bottom of the first, and his second homer of the game in the fifth gave the Flashes some breathing room. Alex Rodriguez added three hits, while Jason Giambi and Maicer Izturis contributed 2 hits each.
Carlos Zambrano, starting the biggest game of his Lp2 career, settled down after surrendering the lead in the second, finishing the game with seven strikeouts in his six innings, earning the victory. The Flashes bullpen shutdown the Rollers offense, as Joel Zumaya, Jason Isringhausen and Takashi Saito fired three scoreless innings to preserve the win.
Ybor City Rollers starter Javier Vazquez wasn't as sharp as Zambrano, but he was able to induce double play balls in the second and fifth innings to lessen the damage. Carlos Guillen led the Roller offense with two hits, but his error in fourth led to the winning run, and he was also picked off firstbase to end the top of the fourth.
The two teams will meet again tomorrow night in Yankee Stadium when Bronson Arroyo and Ervin Santana face off.
