In spite of a shaky start by Harry Lyerly, the Brewers head into the bottom of the 9th in game 1 of the World Series with a very good chance for a win, leading 7-5.
But they blow it, allowing the Whalers to score 2 in the bottom of the 9th to tie the game and then win it on a walk-off in the bottom of the 11th (one batter after James Jackson threw out a runner at home to temporarily preserve the tie) and the Whalers draw first blood.
