1981 Национальная лига Отдел серии ( NLDS ), открытие раунд 1981 Национальной лиги плей - офф , которые начались во вторник, 6 октября, и закончились в воскресенье, 11 октября Отдел серии был создан 6 августа в ответ на 1981 Высшая лига Бейсбольная забастовка , которая привела к отмене примерно одной трети регулярного чемпионата в период с 12 июня по 9 августа; к тому времени, когда игра была возобновлена, было решено, что лучше всего будет, чтобы лидеры первого тайма автоматически квалифицировались для участия в постсезонной игре, и позволили всем командам начать вторую половину с чистого листа. В серии были лучшие из пяти игр.
Монреаль Выставки победили Филадельфию Филлиса в то время как Лос - Анджелес Доджерс победил Хьюстон , чтобы перейти к серии Национальной лиги чемпионата .
Обзор [ править ]
Чемпионы первой и второй половины обеих дивизионов Национальной лиги Восток и Национальной лиги Запад встретятся в серии лучших из пяти, а победители пройдут в серию чемпионатов NL (NLCS). Если одна и та же команда выиграла оба тайма, команда wild card - команда, занявшая второе место в обоих таймах вместе взятых - могла бы претендовать на постсезон [1], но это оказалось ненужным в обеих лигах. Планов по поводу продолжения этого формата в более поздних сезонах не было, хотя серия дивизионов возобновилась в 1995 году после того, как MLB переориентировалась на три дивизиона в каждой лиге. Команды в NLDS 1981 года были:
- Восточный дивизион: Филадельфия Филлис (чемпион в первом тайме, 34–21) против « Монреаль Экспо» (чемпион во втором тайме, 30–23): серия побед в «Экспо», 3–2.
- Западный дивизион: Лос-Анджелес Доджерс (чемпион в первом тайме, 36–21) против Хьюстон Астрос (чемпион во втором тайме, 33–20): серия побед Доджерс, 3–2.
Чемпионы второго тайма провели первые две игры дома, а чемпионы первого тайма провели все оставшиеся игры; это было предопределено в августе независимо от командных рекордов. [1] Если бы команда выиграла оба тайма сезона, она бы принимала все игры серии, кроме первой игры, которую принимала команда wild card. [1]
Результаты этого формата были весьма противоречивыми, так как « Цинциннати Редс» не прошли квалификацию в постсезон, несмотря на то, что у них был лучший результат в бейсболе (66–42) за весь сезон; [2] в Сент - Луис Кардиналс , со второй лучший рекорд Н.Л. (59-43), также были опущены. [3] Красные закончили первую половину сезона всего на половину игры позади Доджерс, в то время как Кардиналы завершили вторую половину всего на половину игры позади Экспо, [4] которые впервые появились в постсезонье после 13. лет игры.
Обе серии прошли полные пять игр. Хозяева выиграли все игры в обеих сериях, за исключением одной: пятой игры серии Восточного дивизиона, в которой «Монреаль» выиграл со счетом 3–0 на стадионе ветеранов Филадельфии . Доджерс и Экспо встретились в серии чемпионатов NL. Доджерс стали чемпионом Национальной лиги и победили чемпиона Американской лиги « Нью-Йорк Янкиз» в Мировой серии 1981 года .

Fernando Valenzuela faced Nolan Ryan, a matchup worthy of a pitcher's duel. The game remained scoreless until the bottom of the sixth. Tony Scott singled home Terry Puhl to score the game's first run, but Steve Garvey tied the game with a home run in the top of the seventh. The game would remain 1–1 into the bottom of the ninth. Dave Stewart retired the first two men, but Craig Reynolds singled and Alan Ashby slugged a two-run walk-off home run.

Jerry Reuss was pitted against Joe Niekro. Both pitchers kept the game scoreless, but both teams had trouble scoring runs when they managed to get men on. Reuss pitched nine innings and Niekro eight. It remained scoreless until the bottom of the 11th. Dave Stewart was brought in once again, although having lost the last game. He surrendered back-to-back singles to open the inning. He was taken out and the bases were loaded thanks to an intentional walk to César Cedeño. The bullpen had managed to get two outs but pinch hitter Denny Walling hit the game winner, a single to right field.

Houston was now one win away from winning their first ever postseason series and moving one step closer to the franchise's first pennant. However, Burt Hooton was there to stop the streaking Astros against Bob Knepper. Hooton held the Astros to three hits over seven innings and the bullpen held them to no hits through the last two innings. After an RBI double by Dusty Baker, Steve Garvey hit a two-run homer to make it 3–0 in the bottom of the first. Art Howe would drive the only run of the game for the Astros by hitting a leadoff home run in the third. The Dodgers would add insurance in the eighth. With two on and one out off of Joe Sambito, Bill Russell's RBI single, Reggie Smith's sacrifice fly, and Ken Landreaux's RBI single extended their lead to 6–1. Bob Welch pitched a scoreless ninth to keep the Dodgers in the series.

Fernando Valenzuela took the hill for the Dodgers once again, this time against Vern Ruhle. Both pitchers pitched complete games for their respective teams. Eventual World Series co-MVP Pedro Guerrero got the Dodgers on the board first with a homer in the bottom of the fifth. Bill Russell drove in the eventual winning run in the bottom of the seventh with an RBI single. A two-out RBI single in the ninth produced the only Astros run as the Dodgers won Game 4, 2–1.

Nolan Ryan was brought in on clinching day to win the Astros their first ever postseason series. Opposing him would be Jerry Reuss, who had pitched so well in Game 2. Thanks to a few walks and an error, the Dodgers struck for three runs in the bottom of the sixth. A two-out triple by Steve Garvey made it 4–0 Dodgers in the seventh. In the end, Reuss went the distance again and pitched a brilliant five-hit shutout to put the Dodgers in the 1981 National League Championship Series. In addition, the Dodgers avenged their loss to the Astros the previous year in a one-game playoff for the NL West title.

In the other division series, the Expos, participating for the first time in post-season play (they would not make the playoffs again until 31 years later, as the Washington Nationals), would have to defeat the defending World Champions, the Philadelphia Phillies. Steve Rogers faced Steve Carlton in Game 1 in Montreal, the first-ever MLB postseason game played outside the United States. A Gary Carter double scored the first Expo run in postseason history in the first. But the Phillies wasted no time in responding. Keith Moreland homered to lead off the second. The game was tied at one. A Chris Speier double gave the Expos the lead for good. Warren Cromartie would double in the third and final Expo run of the game. The score would remain the same. Rogers pitched 8+2⁄3 innings and gave up ten hits, but only one run was allowed. Jeff Reardon got the final out and the save. This was the Expos' first postseason victory.

Dick Ruthven was called on to stem the tide against Bill Gullickson. Chris Speier's RBI single in the second made it 1–0 Expos. Then a two-run homer in the third by Gary Carter made it 3–0. Gullickson was masterful, allowing only one run (on Pete Rose's RBI single in the eighth after a two-out double by Lonnie Smith) and six hits in 7+2⁄3 innings. Jeff Reardon got the save for the second consecutive game.

Ray Burris was called on in the potential clincher against Larry Christenson, hoping to keep the Phillies alive. In the second, Chris Speier's amazing postseason continued with another RBI single to give the Expos the lead. However, Manny Trillo's two-run single in the bottom of the second gave the Phillies the lead. Two more RBI singles made it 4–1 in the sixth. Two more runs for the Phillies in the seventh gave them six for the night. The Expos would get another on a sacrifice fly in the seventh but the score would remain 6–2 as the Phillies won.

Arguably the best game of the series took place in Game 4. Scott Sanderson started against Dickie Noles. The Phillies jumped out to a 2–0 lead in the first on a two-run homer by Mike Schmidt. Keith Moreland's two-run single made it 4–0 in the third. But the Expos refused to go quietly. Gary Carter homered to lead off the fourth to make it 4–1. A Jerry White sacrifice fly made it 4–2 in the fifth. The Expos would tie the game thanks to Chris Speier's RBI single and he would later score. Gary Matthews would homer to give the Phillies the lead. Gary Carter would double to tie the game again in the seventh. In the bottom of the tenth, George Vukovich would walk the game off with a leadoff homer off Jeff Reardon. It tied the series at two games apiece and set up the deciding Game 5.

In Game 5, the defending Champions sent their best, Steve Carlton, to the mound. Carlton would once again face Steve Rogers. Carlton was hoping to avenge his Game 1 loss. Both pitchers kept the game scoreless into the fifth inning. A single and two walks loaded the bases for Rogers. In what proved to be the series winning hit, Rogers singled to center, scoring Larry Parrish and Chris Speier. An RBI double by Parrish in the sixth made it 3–0. That would be all Rogers would need. He allowed only six hits and one walk in a complete game shutout of the defending World Champions. His brilliance led the Expos to the NLCS and their first ever postseason series win. The Expos franchise would not advance in the postseason for another 38 years, until a win in the 2019 National League Wild Card Game as the Washington Nationals. They would not win another postseason series until the 2019 NLDS.
