Charles Nagy of the Indians faced Al Leiter of the Marlins. In the top of the first, Gary Sheffield started the scoring with a solo home run to left. In the bottom half, the Indians retaliated with two runs thanks to two broken bat RBI singles by Matt Williamsand Sandy Alomar Jr.. A bases loaded walk to Sheffield tied the game in the third, before Florida took a 3–2 lead in the fourth on Darren Daulton's home run. However, the Indians got a gift in the bottom of the fourth, when they drew four free passes, then a throwing error by third baseman Bobby Bonilla on Manny Ramírez's single allowed two more runs to score. The Tribe went up 7–3 on Jim Thome's two-run home run to right in the fifth inning. His home run was nullified in the sixth by Jim Eisenreich's two-run home run that cut the lead to 7–5. In the seventh, Craig Counsell hit a leadoff single off of Brian Anderson and moved to second on a groundout, then Édgar Rentería's single and Gary Sheffield's double off of Mike Jackson each drove in a run, making the score 7–7. In the ninth, Bonilla drew a leadoff walk off of Eric Plunk and scored on Dalton's single aided by an error that let Dalton go to third. After a strikeout and intentional walk, an error on a pickoff attempt allowed Dalton to score. After Charles Johnson singled, Alvin Morman relieved Plunk and an error on Counsell's ground ball allowed Cliff Floyd to score. One out later, a walk loaded the bases before José Mesa relieved Morman and allowed two-run singles to Sheffield and Bonilla aided by a wild pitch that gave the Marlins at 14–7 lead. In the bottom of the inning, the Indians loaded the bases on a walk and two singles with one out off of Robb Nen before Tony Fernández's sacrifice fly and Marquis Grissom's single scored a run each, then Bip Roberts' two-run double cut the lead to 14–11, but Omar Vizquel grounded out to end the game. This was the highest scoring game for twenty years till the fifth game of the 2017 World Series between the Houston Astros and the Los Angeles Dodgers. 1997 World Series Summary NL Florida Marlins (4) vs. AL Cleveland Indians (3) GameDateScoreLocationTimeAttendance 1October 18Cleveland Indians – 4, Florida Marlins – 7Pro Player Stadium3:1967,245[1] 2October 19Cleveland Indians – 6, Florida Marlins – 1Pro Player Stadium2:4867,025[2] 3October 21Florida Marlins – 14, Cleveland Indians – 11Jacobs Field4:1244,880[3] 4October 22Florida Marlins – 3, Cleveland Indians – 10Jacobs Field3:1544,887[4] 5October 23Florida Marlins – 8, Cleveland Indians – 7Jacobs Field3:3944,888[5] 6October 25Cleveland Indians – 4, Florida Marlins – 1Pro Player Stadium3:1567,498[6] 7October 26Cleveland Indians – 2, Florida Marlins – 3 (11 innings)Pro Player Stadium4:1067,204[7] Please note that Blue Streak Collectibles does not offer combined handling/shipping discounts for multiple items.
