@@DonQwantsyou yea I get it... Stewart did do better in matchups. I just watched this game in its entirety. Clemens didn't give up a run, and in Game 4 he was ejected " arguing balls and strikes" aka the ump was acting like an egomaniac. But given it was such a small sample size of their total games pitched, and Clemens was a perennial Cy Young winner every year back then its simply an inaccurate statement. If he was better than Clemens, Stewart would have won all those Cy Youngs and had a sub 2 ERA in the AL. He didn't, Clemens did. He wasn't better than Roger Clemens. The As were great back then, and Oakland is and was a pitcher's paradise. Good rivalry tho. Both guys had a fierce intensity about them .....headhunting psycho Clemens and the" look in your eyes while I stab you death glare" Stewart had was great. Definitely a great pitcher and competitor.

Looking back the Red Sox should be proud of there effect because I don't see any other MLB club doing any better against those A's.

1990 felt like a rerun of sorts of 1988. In both occurrences, the A's flat-out destroyed the Red Sox in the ALCS before losing to a vastly inferior ballclub (the Reds in '90 & the Dodgers in '88) in the World Series. The A's during that era from 1988-1992 was purely a case of unfulfilled potential since they should've won more than just one World Championship.

I was at this game . Boston fans were heckling the shit out of Canseco in the bottom of 9th. He just kept pointing at the scoreboard .. lol remember it like it was yesterday

Umpires (Game 1) ( 1:38 ) HP Rich Garcia (CC) (4) 1B John Hirschbeck (1) 2B Jim Evans (5) 3B Terry Cooney (3) LF Vic Voltaggio (3) RF Larry McCoy (5)

The drawback to Pena's catching position (when no one's on base by the way only), is if a full swing dribbler is out in front of the plate, he's at a disadvantage, even though he's well versed with being able to almost effortlessly spring from his 'reclining' catching position. I wonder if Clemens had a problem with a catcher in that position. Did Pena succeed Sanguillen in Pittsburgh?

Clemens was really burned out by Joe Morgan from 1988-1990. In one game in 1988, he threw 161 pitches in 100 degree heat for a complete game win in Texas...not too long after, he went on the DL and was not as effective the remainder of the year. This was before organizations became more serious about pitch counts and so forth. So I think he would tend to simply wear down late in the season and as a result was not "dominant" as he was earlier. Here in 1990, he had just returned from a late season injury to pitch 6 shutout innings on the second-last game of the season and there was actually some uncertainty as to how much he had in the tank for game 1. He certainly pitched well but was not yet in mid-season form and I think they were trying to save him a bit - it's not like he was "asking out". As far as the game 6 controversy, I tend to side more with Clemens over MacNamara. For one, Mac lied about Dave Stapleton being called "Shakey", an assertion that was refuted by Bruce Hurst. He also lied about having his "best first baseman out there", since he had put Stape in for defensive purposes in every other playoff game win. Third, Clemens was actually on deck and was pinch hit by Mac...it's not like Clemens begged out in the middle of the inning. I think Mac had a pretty thin skin in terms of accepting the blame, and resorted to a lot of finger pointing to save face. He shouldn't have had to shoulder all of the blame, but definitely made some questionable decisions in that game 6. I thought Clemens pitched pretty well in the playoffs that year, except for game 1 against Anaheim. He pitched didn't really lay any other eggs in his other postseason starts...I always thought it was a bit odd that he became such a villain to Boston fans. He carried that staff for a number of years.
