Al Leiter @ baseball-reference.com
Arguably Leiter's greatest performance, in Timeline 10 Leiter pitched 8 shutout innings against Cleveland, striking out 8 and allowing 5 hits. Leiter combined with Rob Nen for a shutout game that Florida won 1-0.
In Timeline 26, a pitcher's duel, Leiter lasted for 7 innings, striking out 6 and giving up just 1 run; Nagy struck out 8 in just 6 1/3. The game was tied 1-1 going into the bottom of the ninth.
With Rob Nen on the mound for Florida, Matt Williams reached first base on an error by Jim Eisenreich (LF), and advanced to second on a single. Bip Roberts hit another single to left, and Williams charged home and dove under the catcher's tag in a dramatic walkoff play at the plate.
Timeline 52 saw a solid performance by Leiter, who struck out 5 over 7 innings; Cleveland's only run scored came off of a solo home run by Sandy Alomar Jr. in the bottom of the 4th. It was also one of the rare few times than the stars aligned to allow both a solid performance by Leiter, and run support from Florida's batting order; for Florida it's typically one or the other.
Pitching a two-hitter into the 8th inning, the Marlins had a 2-1 lead going into the 9th. Rob Nen took over for Leiter in relief, and gave up a walk to David Justice. On a single by Sandy Alomar Jr., Justice stretched for third and was safe. A wild pitch by Nen allowed Justice to score from third base, and Alomar Jr. reached 3rd on a sacrifice fly.
With the game tied 2-2, and 2 outs in the bottom of the ninth, Nen gave up a walk-off single to Tony Fernandez, leading the Indians to a 3-2 victory.
