On Saturday of Week Ten, Stawell kept the pressure on Grassy with a 5-2 win over Gympie. Gympie led twice, but each time Stawell came back on home runs, the first by Mike Piazza, the second by Raffy Palmiero. Barry Bonds drove in the final 2 runs, and there was little doubt that Stawell was back in this race. A Grassy loss on Saturday would forge a tie.
But there would be no tie this day. Jamie Moyer won his 6th game with 7 innings of 5-hit shutout ball, and Jeff Bagwell hit his 12th home run. Jeff Kent and Brian Jordan each tripled in 3 as Grassy won going away to eliminate Cooktown with an 11-3 triumph. One more mile to go.
It would be a tough mile, as Grassy faced only the best pitcher in ABL history, the incomparable Greg Maddux. Things looked bad early as Vinny Castilla and Brian McRae each drove in 2 runs to put Cooktown up 4-0 after 2. Maddux had retired the 1st 4 he faced, but a Mike Lieberthal home run and hits by Jeff Bagwell and Jeff Kent scored 5 for Grassy in the 3rd. Terry Mulholland came on in relief for Grassy and pitched well until the bottom of the 6th, when Cooktown tied the score on three hits. But Grassy would not be denied as Jeff Bagwell singled home the go-ahead run in the top of the 7th. Scott Service retired 6 straight Cooktown batters in the 7th and 8th, then John Johnstone hurled a perfect 9th and the Grassy Skirts were champions of the East.
Grassy and Urapunga would face each other in the first Kangaroo Cup for both teams.
Satan just called up for some coal.
