Series Results (4-0 Team Evan)
Stat of the Series: Team Evan 20 Runs to Team Nic 4 Runs
Team Evan dominated the first Fantasy 9. They were lead by their Ace Luis Patino. Patino had a Legendary series, he went 4-0 with an ERA of 0.92 in 29.1 Innings pitch. Patino's best performance came in game 3 when he tossed 15 Ks in 7.1 innings. Patino was the clear choice for Series MVP. Team Evan also had great Closer play from Deivi Garcia who had 3 Saves, 4 Ks, and no runs allowed in his 3.2 innings pitched. On the Offensive side, Vlady Jr. wreaked havoc on Team Nic. Guerrero went 9 for 18 with 4 RBIs and 4 XBH. Jarred Kelenic also had a solid series hitting two HRs and SLG .818. Finally, Freudis Nova was a surprise for Team Evan going 6 for 15 and providing some production at the Bottom of the order.
Overall, it was a disappointing showing from Team Nic. Bats were straight-up non-existent as Team Nic only scored 4 runs in the entire series. The biggest disappointment had to come from Team Nic's Outfield. The starting OFs of Ramos-Armenteros-Adell went 2 for 41 and Produced 0 RBIs. The Batting Average of Team Nic was .130 and only had one XBH the entire series (HR by Ramos in Game 4). Gore actually didn't pitch poorly at all. In 23 innings Gore had a 3.52 ERA with 20 Ks. Team Nic wasted Gore's Game 1 performance where he pitched 7 innings of shut out baseball with 7 Punchouts. The rest of Team Nic's Pitching staff struggled, giving up 11 Runs in just 11 innings pitched.
While Teams looked even on paper, Team Evan clearly was the better team. Follow the 3 Bagger pod on Twitter and Instagram to find out the next Fantasy 9 sim. Got an idea of a Fanasty 9? DM us at @3baggerpod!
