Pilots Hammered by Piazza, Drop Game 1 to Cubs
The Chicago Cubs started the World Series in dominant fashion today, blowing out the host Seattle Pilots at Kingdome by a score of 11-4 and securing an early 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. Cubs catcher Mike Piazza was named player of the game as he went 4-5 with a home run, 3 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3.

In the top of the first, Piazza pounced on a 2-2 fastball from Wally Whitehurst and hit a 2-run home run. It put Chicago on top, 2-0.

"I was able to barrel up some pitches," said Piazza.

Game 2 is scheduled for tomorrow in Seattle. Slated to start are Eric King for the Chicago Cubs and Randy Johnson for the the Seattle Pilots.
