Did anybody know that the World Series was being played?

[MADGator]

Yeah I have...big Boston fan and I’m jacked

Same here! Watched every minute!

This may be the best Red Sox team ever, which is saying a lot.

I just noticed that they’re on game 3.

I can’t believe baseball has fallen this far…

No I did not. I might be interested if the REDS ever make it again, so since that will not ever happen again in my lifetime, I probably won;t ever watch a world series game.

I was a Dodger fan when they were in Brooklyn. Hated the Yankees. Dodgers against the big machine. When in elementary school and the series was played the radios came out and class shut down.

Still a Dodger fan and I still watch.

How can you root for a team with a stupid wall in the middle of left field.

I thought only white guys jumped to catch?

 

[Swamped Gator]

I had no idea it was on. But I'm not that into hockey...

Benny Biceps!

Going to be interesting to see what AC does with the lineup in LA. I know he mentioned playing Mook at 2nd which imo is the way to go about it. JD is zoned in and we cant let his bat sit on the bench. JBJ is too good of a defensive player to leave on the bench. Kinsler has been awful since we acquired him. Sit him and get JD into left.

Would also like to see maybe a little more Holt than Kinsler also...

The little league world series or the world series of poker, which is going on now?

Buck is one of, if not the best in the business. The amount of work and preparation he puts in is incredible, especially cross sport platforms. I know a lot of people don’t like him but he’s amazing at what he does.

Well, you know that appreciation of announcers is a subjective thing. There are lots of fans who don't like Buck just like some don't like Johnny Miller or Cris Collinsworth. Buck is very good at juggling the different sports at the same time.

The Monster is pretty simple. The ball either travels over the wall or bounces off it for a double.

Kinda like most outfield walls, eh?

Although if you hit one hard enough at the Monstah, it’ll bounce back hard enough to hold you to a single.

I see the Orioles barely missed the postseason.

No, not at all, but you made a good point. Outs turn into doubles and doubles into singles. Who knows? It might all even out in the end.

I think part of the problem is that Boston is such a heavy favorite, that people aren't watching cause they feel like they know the outcome already. Thats my excuse anyways. I've been telling my friends for months that the NL doesn't stand a chance this year, and I'm a Cubs fan.

I remember when the World Series was the biggest thing in sports. It was BASEBALL — America’s pastime. We would take our radios to school. The teacher would end class early so we could get out a radio and tune in to listen to the games. There were no night World Series games. It was all afternoons.

The biggest most dramatic thrill of all was when Bill Mazeroski hit that walk-off home run off Ralph Terry in the bottom of the ninth to beat the dreaded New York Yankees four games to three. I can still name the starting line-ups for both teams, but I can’t even tell you what teams are playing this year. I think one team is the Boston Red Sox. My lack of current baseball knowledge is due to a lack of interest and not dementia. I still have all my baseball cards and my marbles.

I lost my marbles years ago.

Game 2 of the 2007 WS -- 11 years ago today. My broker-dealer flew me up for it. This was the muttley crew that went, me on the left. Schilling was money and the Red Sox won, 2-1.

Fenway, and esp Yawkey Boulevard before the game, was a total blast.

 

[MJMGator]

I watched Game 2 last night. First baseball game I’ve watched in many years. Might tune in for the rest of the series.
