2011 World Series
Madison Mallards (96-67) vs. Houston Copperheads (99-64)
Game 6: Pancho Juarez (2-1, 3.00) vs. Brian Brooks (0-0, 0.00)
Key Moment: Juarez allowed two runs in the first inning, Mallards followed up with four in the bottom of the first. We lead 6-5 heading into the bottom of the eighth inning and the offense reeled off three more runs to take a 9-5 lead into the top of the ninth inning. Rather than bring in Tavares we left in in Gilbert to finish the game. He ended up allowing two base runners with Martinez made a circus catch to close out the game and give the Mallards the World Series Title!!!
