In the top of the 13th, Mariano Duncan and Derrek Lee hit back-to-back doubles to put Lowell in the lead.

WORLD SERIES GAME 7

Lowell: Carlos Zambrano (1-1, 2.75)
Richmond: Mark Mulder (1-1, 2.77)

Enough magic left in the hat for one more game? Yes, indeed. The Lowell Moxies won their second title with another come-from-behind victory. Trailing 3-2 with one out in the top of the 9th, Lowell rallied, tagging Keith Foulke for 3 runs in 1/3 of an inning and adding another off Charlie Hough. In the 9th, Miguel Cabrera smacked a 2-run double to put Lowell ahead. Mariano Duncan then added a two-run single for insurance. For Richmond, Jim Rice and Jeff Burroughs hit back-to-back doubles in both the 4th and 6th innings. Carlos Zambrano 8 innings for the win, striking out 8 and walking 3.
