Monarchs Base Ball

George DavisGame 5 @ Washington - The game started off with a bang. Good old Dizzy Dean must have gotten full of himself when he heard how highly managers in the All Time League League thought of him. The Monarchs would have none of it however, as Dean was bounced after recording just one out. A 3-run homerun by Deacon White caused most of the damage, perhaps inspired by the Kansas City Monarchs owner telling Washington owner Lou Poulas that he wishes McVey was the catcher for the Kansas City Monarchs. Naturally the reader must be thinking Kansas City should have one, but some ridiculous crap soon followed. In the 3rd George Davis went deep and Gehringer hit an RBI single to make it 5-2. When Gehringer stepped to the plate again in the bottom of the 5th, he hit another RBI single to make it 5-3. In the top of the 6th, gold glover Pelayo Chacon went deep to move the lead back to 3 runs. It would stay this way until the bottom of the 8th until the manager (who some in the stands say wasn't even present) left Hiramatsu out to dry even after McVey went deep to lead off the inning. Norm Cash followed suit shortlythereafter, and yet another large lead for Kansas City was squandered. Neither team could score in the 9th, so the game went to extras. Recent addition Reuben Jones pitch hit for the pitcher in the 10th and hit a 2-out RBI single. Dave Smith came into the game - unable to find the zone, he was left out there to battle through it, but was unable. The game ended with Ron Santo hitting a walk-off RBI single and Washington won 8-7.

Cal McVeyGame 6 @ Washington - The high powered Kansas City offense would knock out another one of Lou's terrible pitchers in the first inning. Babe Adams was able to retire 2 batters, so in a sense he was twice as valuable as Dizzy Dean. However, the bullpen was completely drained from the previous game. Cal McVey, who normally plies his trade as a catcher, was brought into relief. The results were hilarious. McVey surrendered 3 homeruns and 2 doubles. The game was over halfway through the 2nd inning - that wouldn't stop the brave Kansas City Monarchs for piling on and winning 19-7 though.

Charlie KellerGame 7 @ Washington - Washington outfielder Keller hit a blast to rightfield in the bottom of the first. In the top of the 2nd inning Kansas City would respond. Terry doubled to lead off the inning, and Chacon hit a run scoring triple with 2 outs. Hack it a bleeder between the pitching mound and home plate - there was a little miscommunication between McVey and Saberhagen and Hack wound up on first base with Chacon scooting home. Saberhagen thought no big deal, the pitcher's up, right? Wrong. This isn't just any pitcher - it's a pitcher with 3 fingers. 3 magical fingers. Mordecai Brown took Saberhagen yard to make the score 4-1. This is all Mordecai Brown would need, as he took it the distance for the complete game win, 5-3.

Game 8 @ Tokyo - The Kansas City Monarchs then proceeded to fly around the world to play Tokyo the very next night. Needless to say the players were incredibly jetlagged. This led to a pummelling at the hands of Sugishita and the Giants, 5-1. The score could have been much worse. It's also worth noting this is the first game that spectators saw the Kansas City Monarchs manager in the dugout. Perhaps he has a bad influence on his players. Only time will tell.
