I don't disagree. Michael Jordan misses game winning shots.

Tudor was the last pitcher to have a season with double digit shutouts. He had ten in 1985. :thumbsup:

Game 7 do or die:

1 Snuffy Stirnweiss 3B
2 Joe Dimaggio CF
3 Babe Ruth RF
4 Mickey Mantle LF
5 Lou Gehrig 1B
6 Elston Howard C
7 Robinson Cano 2B
8 Derek Jeter SS
9 Spud Chandler P

keeping Howard at C, switching Stirnweiss's and Jeter's spots in the order, and skipping Lefty Gomez to start Spud Chandler.
