With the games knotted up at two each the series continued:

Game 5:

    Strasburg was dominant throughout and NMO could not touch him, but the NMO bullpen was almost equal to the task, allowing 1 run in 6 IP. Bottom of the 9th with Uehara closing it out, Machado singled and then Jason Rogers PH and promptly launched a 2-run HR for the walkoff. NMO wins 2-1

Game 6:

   With Harmony Grove running out of AB's for several positions, NMO looked to close it out. NMO jumped on HAR for a commanding 6-2 lead, but NMO's bullpen could not keep the lead and after 5 HAR batters reached in a row, HAR had the lead 7-6. The lead did not last long as Manny Machado hit a 2-run HR in the 9th to give NMO a 8-7 lead that Kenley Jansen was able to close out for the NMO series victory. COngratulations to Travis on another great season. He definitely would have won game 5 if he did not run out of AB's. When you are reduced to pitcher's hitting and players playing out of position, it is tough to win, even against NMO. Key multiple game injuries to Hanley Ramirez and Chris Coghlan did not help the Harmony Grove cause.
