Game 6- Back to Philly for Game 6, Oakland with
their backs against the wall. Sanderson
vs.
Christenson is the pitching matchup.
Oakland strikes first with a Mark Mcgwire solo HR in the 2nd to
lead 1-0. They add another with a sacrifice
fly in the top of the 4th but
Philly matches it when Mike Schmidt goes deep in the bottom of the inning. Bob Boone hits a pinch hit 2 run HR in the
bottom of the 5th to put Philly up 3-2 and things are looking grim
for the A’s. Oakland comes right back in
the 6th to tie the game on a Mike Gallego suicide squeeze. It would remain tied into the 8th
when Mcgwire leads off the inning with his 2nd HR of the game to
give Oakland a 1 run lead. The great Oakland bullpen would take over from there
in the form of Gene Nelson with a clean 8th and Eckersley with a
1-2-3 9th. Series Tied 3-3
