Re: No World Series fans in here ?
No real rooting interest although I probably lean a bit toward the Dodgers.

Re: No World Series fans in here ?
ehhh sox fans are used to their team being out of it most years...for most of your lives to watch a world series meant watching other successful teams play a game the sox wouldn't reach for decades...on the other hand being a yankees fan has meant playoffs most years and a good number of WS appearances starting in my early teens and continuing through the years and decades that followed...
baseball is nearly as boring as watching paint dry even when yer team is in it...can't see any point in watching two teams I couldn't possibly care less about...

Re: No World Series fans in here ?
I caught a couple of innings. Kershaw stepped up. Let’s see if Verlander keeps on dominating.madhatter wrote:ehhh sox fans are used to their team being out of it most years...for most of your lives to watch a world series meant watching other successful teams play a game the sox wouldn't reach for decades...on the other hand being a yankees fan has meant playoffs most years and a good number of WS appearances starting in my early teens and continuing through the years and decades that followed...

Re: No World Series fans in here ?
Same with me, watched a couple innings...just can't sit and watch baseball, which is funny since I played in a mens softball league for over 20 years, you'd think I'd have more interest.
Re: No World Series fans in here ?
Well .. being a fan of baseball doesn't mandate watching an entire contest 
.. in the age of extended game complaints, last night's game ran 2:28.
Then .. O'Malley, Rickey, Robinson, Reese, Alston, Drysdale, Lasorda, Hodges, Hershiser, Valenzuela, Campanella ..
Now .. Kershaw, Turner, Bellinger ..
Always .. Sculley
Verlander due for an off night.

Re: No World Series fans in here ?
Funny, I got nicknamed "Rickey" for about 5 of those years (batted leadoff mostly because of my speed, but also hit homeruns, I always made "basket-catches" if I had to run in on a ball in the outfield, and never "used two hands" on any fly balls, always tried to stretch singles into doubles(or "Dezzy triples" after an overthrow...))!
And I mainly mentioned the softball because just like in the parking lot after skiing, groups of people will likely talk skiing, beers in the parking lot after a softball game and conversation will end up about baseball sooner-or-later. We sure didn't talk about softball much.

Yo Hendy .. Nice catch .. Nice wheels !
Actually, the reference was to Branch Rickey .. responsible for signing #42 .. forever changing the face of the game.

Ya, after I hit "submit", I realized you had listed Dodger related, not colorful baseball related...pretty good you realized I was talking about Rickey Henderson!
Re: No World Series fans in here ?
Decent ballgame
Drama (after all, it IS Hollywood) & Dingers.
Puig and his bat is bizarro .. who's his barber?

Re: No World Series fans in here ?
This is good baseball.
City of Houston starving for a title and Peacock showed his colors last night
Roberts taking some heat, but he doesn't have many options against these bats
Crucial game tonight .. Dodgers need a pitching gem from an unlikely hero.
Oh, and Go Nittany Lions

Re: No World Series fans in here ?
What a game last night . . . have to admit, turned it off after first inning, but when flipping back, it just got crazy . . . watched until the end, with a bit of dozing going on 
Gooooooooooooo Houston!!!
Gooooooooooooo Houston!!!
Re: No World Series fans in here ?
Usually if you get Kershaw 4 runs quickly you are good...
Anyone see the guy grab the ball from that lady and throw it back after a LA HR?

2nd Best World Series evah for a Sox fan.
Everything one could ask for in a Fall Classic.
Good pitching. Great hitting. Drama. Astonishment.
Neither team showing any sign of quit.
Plate umpiring and lack of sleep are only downside.
