Strat-O-Matic Report - Blue Sox Season #4, Championship Series, Game #5 - Chicago 3, Los Angeles 1

Blue Sox Season #4, Championship Series, Game #5 - Chicago 3, Los Angeles 1. The 2020 Chicago White Sox (CM created by TOM PERELLA - see photo above) win the Championship Series in 5 games over Los Angeles (CM created by Corbin Dennis Vance). Perella is a member of both the ESSOM Spring League and the ESSOM Fall League. Chicago went 8-1 in the post-season with an ERA of 1.56! Game #5 saw a rematch of the Game #1 pitching matchup - Lucas Giolito for Chicago vs. Clayton Kershaw for Los Angeles, and Giolito prevailed again. LUCAS GIOLITO was named Post-Season MVP. He made 3 starts in the post-season, winning all 3, including Game #1 of both the Semifinal Series and the Championship Series, and of course the clincher in the Championship Series. He allowed just 1 run on 9 hits in 21-1/3 innings, with an ERA of 0.42 and a WHIP of 0.94, and holding opposing batters to a .127 batting average. With 1 out in the bottom of the 1st, Kershaw walked Luis Robert, and then Jose Abreu homered to put Chicago up 2-0. In the top of the 2nd, Chris Taylor homered off Giolito to narrow the score to 2-1, but in the bottom of the 2nd, an rbi double by Danny Mendick gave Chicago its third run of the game, and there would be no scoring. Chicago won despite getting just 4 hits. Giolito got the win, Kershaw got the loss, and Matt Foster pitched 2 innings of scoreless relief for the save. For Los Angeles, Justin Turner was 3-for-3. During the regular season, Perella led the White Sox to a record of 92-62 and a #2 seed in the post-season. For the fourth year in a row, the regular season #1 seed lost in the Championship Series. Previous champions: Blue Sox Season #1 - 2017 Houston Astros (#2 seed, CM created by ESSOM's Paul Alexander, Post-Season MVP Dallas Keuchel); Blue Sox Season #2 - 2018 Los Angeles Dodgers (#3 seed, CM created by ESSOM's Dave Marks, Post-Season MVP Max Muncy); and Blue Sox Season #3 - 2019 Houston Astros (#2 seed, CM created by Curtis Milbourn, Post-Season MVP Michael Brantley). This was Perella's third trip to the Championship Series, but his first victory. For the third time, the Championship Series was won by an ESSOM member. Special thanks to Corbin Dennis Vance for creating the CM for Los Angeles.
