In a rematch of last year's 1st round series, these 2 teams picked up right where they left off, battling back and forth in another nailbiter. Both teams had uncharacteristic defensive jitters, which cost them both some runs, but Clanger and Smitty both battled the whole night.

A's jump out to a 2-0 lead on a wild pitch and a passed ball. Braves answer in the next frame with 4 runs, capped by a tremendous 3-run double to left center by Uberti.

The A's chipped away with another run in the 4th, and tied it up in the 6th on a mammoth HR to left by Katsi.

In the top of the 7th, after two quick outs, Teddy Ballgame draws a walk, Robb singles, and Uberti comes up huge again with an RBI single to right, giving them the 5-4 lead.

The A's put men on 1st & 3rd in the 7th, but Smitty induces a 4-3 grounder to end the game.

Braves earn 1st postseason victory since 1981.
