ALDS Game 3 - "Ola-RUDE Awakening"


GAME 3 - County Stadium
Garcia vs Augustine
Mariners 4, Brewers 3

The pivotal game 3 went to the visting M's thanks to a 4 run blow up inning by 3rd starer Jerry Augustine.  With 2 outs Ichiro singled home Crillo to tie the game at 1-1.  McLemore, who has issues with lefties worked out a walk to load the bases for John Olerud, who kills the Brewers (3 HR's vs them in the regular season).  Augustine looked to have the lefty / lefty matchup in his favor, but the man who wears the batting helmet in the field lined a bases clearing double to make it 4-3.  Milwaukee threw as scare into the M's when Cecil Cooper hit a solo shot int he 8th and Dick Davis hit one in the 9th.  With one out in the 9th pinch hitter Jim Gantner singled of closer Sasaki, who go Yount to fly out to center and Money to line out to Ichiro in right.  Freddy Garcia won his 9th game of the season with a sensational 8 inning 1 run performance.  Milwaukee is now on the brink of elimination.
Mariners lead series 2-1
