2006 World Series; Game 5
From Lp2 Wiki
Rollers Jump all over Verlander, Flashes; Move within a Game of Championship
In game one the Rollers used the longball to beat Justin Verlander, in game five they decided to use the same strategy, homering five times and chasing Verlander after three innings as they cruised to a 16-1 victory and a 3-2 series lead.
Carlos Guillen led the charge, as his three-run homer in the first put the Ybor City Rollers on the board first, he finished the game with three hits (two homers) and 6 RBI's. Stan Musial was a perfect 4-for-4 with five runs scored, and just needed a homerun to hit for the cycle. Joe Mauer and Miguel Cabrera added three hits and three runs apiece.
Verlander lasted just 3 2/3 in game one, allowing seven runs, and tonight he gave up eight runs in his three innings, walking one and striking out four. Rollers starter Chris Carpenter was very sharp, allowing just 3 hits in 7 innings, and registering 7 strikeouts.
The teams travel back to Ybor City for Game 6, where Brandon Webb will be looking to lead the Rollers to their 3rd Lp2 Championship, while Mike Mussina will be looking to force a game seven for the Finger Lakes Flashes.
