2016 World Series (Indians vs. Cubs)

[24fps]

Wow, he's in there with a 7 run lead still throwing pitches.

I haven't been this aghast at a manager's choice in ... exactly 28 days

There's managing scared and then there's managing Maddon scared.

Or Rick Adair. They should have had him sit behind the plate games 2 and 6 to really screw with Jake.

Obviously late to this thread, but this was the funniest thing I've read this week. Har!

That's what I'd do when Jake comes back to Baltimore next summer.

Tonight's game time moved from 8:08 to 8:00 due to late evening rain forecast.

No, I'm not kidding, apparently they think 8 minutes will make a difference.

Make your couch potato plans accordingly...

We have lost our sense of history.

I thought it was premature.

Maybe if it's an all time great game and the Cubs win. I don't think anyone will consider it the biggest game in MLB history if the Indians win.

If the Cubs win is it really bigger than when the Red Sox won?

I'd say so. 108 years vs 86. And the Cubs are the lovable losers. Were the Red Sox ever lovable? Maybe I'm too young to remember that.

I thought that fowler homer was a medium fly ball. The wind must be blowing out.

Red Sox have the east coast advantage and the Ruth tie in.

I'd say it's pretty equivalent.

When the hell did the Indians start playing at Camden Yards?

Major League 2.

Surprised you didn't know that.

Home games were filmed at OPACY, road games at Memorial Stadium.
