Three Game series, pitting the 1939 New York Yankees against the 1995 Cleveland Indians.

 

'95 Indians (Charles Nagy) @ '39 Yankees (Monte Pearson)

'39 Yankees (Atley Donald) @ '95 Indians (Ken Hill)

'95 Indians (Dennis Martinez) @ '39 Yankees (Red Ruffing) (if necessary)

 

Game 1

'95 Indians 12, '39 Yankees 4

 

The Indians steamrolled Yankee pitching in the first game of the series. Albert Belle hit two home runs and Omar Vizquel and Sandy Alomar added home runs of their own. Belle has now hit seven home runs in the tournament. Charles Nagy pitched seven innings to improve his record to 3-0, while Monte Pearson drops to 0-1.

The Indians again crushed the Yankees to wrap up a tournament victory. Ken Hill (2-0) pitched two innings for the victory while Atley Donald (2-1) lasted just two innings in the loss. Albert Belle hit his eighth home run.

 

Tournament MVP: Joe Dimaggio, 1939 Yankees

 

Dimaggio hit .386 in 44 at bats with a tournament leading 16 RBIs.

Guess this is random. The Indians were a good team, but best ever. I don't think so.

Of course not. In the span of 10-14 games, anything can happen. This says nothing more than that the '95 Indians won a fictional tournament.

The great teams don't always end up winning championships of course. That Indians' starting line-up was a modern day Murder's Row.
