Well, thank you for entertaining me over the past month. I would guess the results of this poll are a forgone conclusion, but let's put it out there anyway.

Alright, let's end this thing this week if we can. All the #1 seeds survived and we have one #6 seed left.
Found Vin Scully's full call of Puckett's homer.
Also, got Gordon/Carneal audio for Larkin's walk off and the 3-6-3 Double Play.

Also, I found clips below of Gordo calling other parts of Game 163. I'm guessing Gladden got the call for Casilla's walk-off, and while I've never heard it, I don't really care to.
#1. Mauer's Final Game (Def. Mauer Tags Out Gardner 11-3)

#6. Baker's Near-Perfecto (Def. Lineout DP, Game 163 9-4)
