Well, I was getting sick of FOX showing Boston fans instead of the game.

wow, great slide
― k3vin k., Sunday, 13 October 2013 04:02 (eleven years ago)
waited as long as possible to dive
I was going to ask about the two 1-0 games, but Joe Buck answered it before I got the chance.

red sox got a hit yay

Would've been ticked about the crowd shots if they hadn't been so hilarious.

WOW

No, first time in the postseason.
First combination (near) no-hitter I've ever watched. I wanted to see it, though I didn't know who exactly I was rooting for.

The biggest story was almost 12 LOB for Tigers, or 1-11 RISP. Grateful for the rested Peralta. Thankyou-50-game-suspension!

I think u r confused about what the only national stories in AL ball are, young man

According to Pitch F/X, West called five strikes out of the zone for both Sanchez and Lester. The two worst ones were in Lester's favor.

Right near the beginning, you can see Cookie Lavagetto break up Bill Bevans' no-hitter in the ninth:

Hmm that's quite the on-field celebration for 1947. Usually they'd just shake hands and run to the dugout after *winning* the WS.

Bleacher Report ranks '47 as the 10th greatest Series ever:
http://bleacherreport.com/articles/903479-power-ranking-the-25-greatest-world-series-in-mlb-history/page/17
I'm guessing the on-field hysteria was some combination of the all-NY angle, Robinson's first year, and general post-war euphoria--lots of psychic energy out there. Between Cookie Lavagetto, Al Gionfriddo, DiMaggio, and Berra, was there ever a better Series for Italians?
― clemenza, Sunday, 13 October 2013 16:41 (eleven years ago)
Sanchez walked six last night; Bevens walked ten.
― clemenza, Sunday, 13 October 2013 16:49 (eleven years ago)
I bet the game took less than 2:30 too.
So will Peralta continue to be the postseason PED poster boy? Bet there'll be a lot less handwringing than if it had been The Centaur.
― eclectic husbandry (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 13 October 2013 18:57 (eleven years ago)
There's been no handwringing at all, on TV they mention it in passing as if he missed two months rehabbing an injury.

i would probably never not watch the finals or world series, football i think is a dumb sport but i watch occasionally just because everyone else does, i'd totally skip out on the super bowl if i didn't care about either team but there are always fun parties and food associated with that

that double play where fielder belly flopped five feet short of third base was so funny and sad what was he doing
