The home team Muckrakers were the first team to score, when in the bottom of the 1st, Nick Markakis reached on an error from Kazuo Matsui, moved to 2nd on a walk to Travis Hafner and scored on a single from Orlando Hudson. In the 4th, Manhatten Beach tied it up when Chad Tracy walked, moved to second on a groundout from Ryan Ludwick and scored on a base hit from Brian McCann. 1-1 tie game after 4. In the 5th inning, Jacque Jones singled, moved to third on a base hit from Nick Markakis and scored on a base hit from David Wright. Madison added an insurance run in the 7th when Gabe Gross doubled and scored on an RBI single from Markakis. 3-1 Muckrakers after 7. Jamie Walker was pitching in relief for Madison in the top of the 8th, his team up 3-1. Walker gave up a leadoff base hit to David Ortiz, and struck out Josh Fields for 1 out on the board. On came closer Francisco Cordero. Cordero ran into trouble, loading the bases. Donnie Murphy smacked a double, driving in 2 runs to tie up the game at 3. The next batter, Michael Young, singled, scoring 2 more runners. Suddenly the Mashers were up 5-3. Manhatten Beach maintained their 5-3 lead heading into the bottom of the 9th. Casey Janssen was pitching for the Mashers. First batter up, Gross, grounded out. Nick Markakis struck out. And with 2 outs, David Wright struck out, ending the game. An uncharacteristically bad outing from the Muckrakers closer proves to be the difference as Manhatten Beach wins game 1 by a score of 5-3. MASHERS LEAD 1-0. 10/8/2007, MBM07-MAD07, Rogers Centre 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E LOB DP 2007 Mashers 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 4 0 5 10 1 11 3 2007 Muckrakers 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 3 9 0 8 0 Mashers AB R H BI D T HR
