Since there wasn't a thread for the World Series, thought I would start one. Detroit got themselves into a hole, down 2 games. Can they come back? Great pitching duel last night. Who will take it all in how many more games? Anyone care?

Re: World Series

Detroit is getting spanked. They "have" to sweep the Giants at home or it's all over, IMO. Detroit winning 4/5? Naw, Giants in 6.

A long rest before the Series starts is never good. Sweeping the Yanks may have been their undoing. We will see. I always say "you can't have an incredible comeback if you aren't seriously behind." Baseball has a special ability to make the impossible possible...

Have to agree. They would have to win all 3 at home, even if they win 2 then they would have to "sweep" in S.F. which ain't gonna happen.

Re: World Series

I have to admit - I'd like to see the Tigers win. It's the old home team and we don't have a MLB franchise here in Nashville.

... and bonus! A win for the Tigers should get rid of a bunch of those abandoned houses and building around the downtown area. Grass outta' grow back pretty nicely next year after the fires die down too :rolleyes:

Well, the Tigers are all done. Stranded 9. Had bases loaded with 1 out and came away with nothing..... Detroit could be burning whether they win or lose....

Never thought the Giants would sweep ... Thought the Tigers would win at least 1 at home! Guess I was rooting for the National League, so all good.

Lose is "normal" burning: easy fires for the locals to deal with. Not as nice grass next year though :)

Oh well. Congrats Giants and their fans!

Re: World Series

Not a Giants fan at all but have to admit they have a very good team. I like the fact that they didn't bring back Cabrerra for the post season. That showed they had some class.
