World Series Game 2 - "Thomas's Promises"


GAME 2
Sorensen vs Fowler
Brewers 11, Reds 5

Lary Sorensen continued to sparkle this post season with another economical yet dominant performance.  Milwaukee's #2 guy left the game with a 2 hit shutout going after 7 innings because his team was up 11-0 and his manager wanted to save his arm.  That strategy almost backfired when mop up man Andy Replogle gave up 5 runs in the bottom of the 8th.  Cincy went quietly in the 9th so the scare was premature.  MVP candidate Gorman Thomas was 4 for 5 with 3 RBI.  Thomas had a double and hit his 27th homer of the season.  Yount (3-6) and Cecil Cooper (2-6) each had 3 RBI's of their own.  Milwaukee hit 4 long balls on the day to Cincy's 2.
Brewers lead series 2-0
