00:00Roaming up with the men's bullpen and getting the number 16, pitcher of Doc Gooden.
00:113-2 pitch is swung on and missed.
00:15So sub strikes out with sacks at second base.
00:19Well, we talked about the fastball just tails away.
00:22And the reason I think Gooden is so overpowering or can be overpowering is because of the movement on the fastball,
00:28not to mention the velocity.
00:301-2, he swings away, and down he goes.
00:38So Stubb strikes out for the second time.
00:42Gooden has two strikeouts in both instances, Franklin.
00:47I don't imagine Tommy Lasorda will send the runners here.
00:52He doesn't, and Gibson strikes out on a breaking pitch, lowing in on him.
00:59So Gooden does what Hersheiser's done, 3-2, doesn't matter what the count is, you don't know what's coming.
01:07And it appeared that Gibson was, I mean, totally full.
01:10Looking fastball.
01:12Normally in that situation, you try to look for the ball, but it's tough to do that off of Gooden.
01:21So two down.
01:25Chased it.
01:26Down he goes.
01:27And Dwight Gooden strikes out the side in the third.
01:31A classic year.
01:33Very close to what Gibson did when you caught him back in 1968 with a 1-12 year.
01:39Down goes Socia.
01:40And Mike wants to know if it was a strike.
01:44And I think Harry Wendelstead answered in the affirmative.
01:48Especially after you swung at it.
01:49It looked like the curveball was low.
01:51As you take another look at this curveball, two strikes, you will expand the strike zone, especially with a great curveball.
01:57Gooden, 61 pitches through four.
01:59He allowed a run in the first, and that's been it.
02:01The only run of the game, and it's 1-0.
02:04Dodgers with Hersheiser leading off in the bottom of the fifth.
02:08Now his second postseason action with the Mets.
02:10Hersheiser tries to bunt his way on with two strikes, and down he goes.
02:14Gooden records strikeout number six.
02:17And I know the feeling.
02:18When you figure you can't hit a guy, you better try something else.
02:221-2 pitch.
02:23Got a fastball.
02:25And Gooden now has seven strikeouts in four and two-thirds innings.
02:29So two down.
02:30Once they traded Guerrero, it opened up first base once more.
02:33And slubs it to ground ball backhanded by Backman.
02:36And down he goes.
02:391-2-3 inning for Gooden.
02:41The league championship series.
02:44Gibson goes down on strikes.
02:46And Dwight Gooden doing a pretty good 1985 imitation tonight
02:54with eight strikeouts in five and a third innings.
02:57Well, what sets up this total freeze by Kirk Gibson is the way he got there.
03:01He threw him some curveballs early in the count.
03:03He's looking for the ball.
03:04Can't pull the trigger.
03:05Right there.
03:06He wants to swing.
03:07Great pitch outside corner.
03:0990-plus fastball.
03:11Here's the 0-2 pitch to Marshall.
03:13Lovato again.
03:15That's nine strikeouts.
03:16Marshall gone twice.
03:20On strikes.
03:21Eastern time.
03:23And sling down he goes.
03:2510 strikeouts.
03:26For Dwight Gooden.
03:27After six.
03:29Dodgers won.
03:29That's nothing.
03:30Back in Los Angeles after this word from your local station.
03:33And that's grounded to short.
03:40Johnson throws out Hersheyzer.
03:42Gooden escapes further damage.
03:43But the Dodgers get a big insurance run.
03:46On two hits.
03:48And at the end of seven, Dodgers two.
03:50Mets nothing.
03:52That's
03:55kind of a kill going.
03:56Bye.
04:01Stay strong.
