The Carpenter/Halladay NLDS game was one of the best pitching duels I have ever seen. Sadly, the game has changed so much I doubt we'll ever see anything like that again for a long time. Today, both pitchers would have been pulled after the 5th or 6th inning.
Andujar really put up some good seasons when he came over. He is one of the more underrated pitchers in team history in my opinion. There's no 1982 World Series banner without him.
And on the flip side…1985.
That hot blooded Dominican (RIP) also lost his shiite completely in Game 7 in KC.
