Is This The Best World Series Of All Time? If Not, What Is?

Tbh, this is a sloppy assed WS.

I don't really like cheap homers and lazy baserunning.

Quit watching last night after Puigs cheapy. Cuz I didn't really care who won that bad baseball game.

It was good until the pitchers started to suck

I'm sorry, Frank, but you don't know shit. Kershaw did not suck last night. He's the same lock-down ace we've come to expect during the regular season. It's just that he knew the bullpen was taxed from Saturday's and Sunday's games, so he knew the team needed him to go deep, and that's just not fair.

Plus, after Kershaw coughed up a four run lead, Roberts should have known that he needed to take his ace out of the game. Aces can't be counted on to do superhuman feats, like pitching five innings on normal rest when they have extra pressure.

He was great.

How'd I do, @CatsTopPac?

Yeah, I have to admit, I'm not particularly enjoying the slugfests.

Wait till JV breaks one off tomorrow.

Breaks. One. Off.

...in pen.

Hahaha.

He has been great, that's for sure.

1948 was a good series. Sorta. But so long ago

 

[dougplayer]

1984 was classic. Bless them boys

None of this happens without Assmoose.


Tomorrow will basicly be my entire years worth of MLB fandom wrapped into one night. I will be rooting for him more than I did my own team. And I don't feel guilty one bit.

 

[dougplayer]

1948 series. Heard some still think on it.
Long ago. Shame really. That Cleveland has waited so long. 1948. Wow

 

[PnkPanther]

1991 world series and it's not close

5 games decided by 1 run
4 games decided on the last at bat

Did Slink put up the Bat Signal?


I'm more than impressed right now.

@Jiddy no one is mentioning your white sox

Too painful.


Pick another.

chicks dig the long ball

I prefer good baseball, which happens to include good pitching

Casual fans seem to love it, which I guess it good for baseball

The Dodgers and Astros have combined for a 5.38 ERA in the World Series.

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

The Dodgers and Astros have combined for a 5.38 ERA in the World Series.

Ironically, Dodgers' ace, Clayton Kershaw, actually has a HIGHER ERA than that. He's totally set, though. Should totally be counted on to lead a postseason staff. No brainer.

Can opt out after next season and add his name to the Keuchels' Donaldsons' Machados' and Bryces' of the world

What are y'all talking about? Baseball ended on October the 21th.


1997 is up there as one of the best WS for me and @SlinkyRedfoot

 

[MilkSpiller22]

gotta say the 2001 Yankees/diamondbacks... Killed me that the Yankees won, but cant think of a more drama filled WS...

this has been great, but all the drama has been in the middle games... Lets see what happens the next 2(hopefully)... if there is drama still then this could be...
