2011 World Series: AL Champion vs. NL Champion

[hawing]

Though we're at best "meh" about this, we can't stop it from happening.

 

Everything That's Good About Baseball won Game 1 Wednesday night (10/19), 3-2, in St. Louis.

 

Texas defeated ETGAB in Game 2 Thursday night (10/20), 2-1, also in St. Louis.

 

Game 3 is in Texas Saturday night (10/22), 7:05 PM CT, on FOX.

Apparently when you lose, it's a good thing to avoid talking about it to the media. Saw a few tweets and articles that some of the ETGAB crew skipped the postgame media time. That's nice.

Fair or not, Albert just doesn't get it

 

Love the thread title hawing; well played.

It's perfectly fine to avoid talking about losses to the media...as long as you've earned that right.

Game 4: Texas 4, ETGAB 0. Series tied 2-2. Tear.

That Napoli home run was sweet. I've liked him for a while, and that was a classic shot for him.

[Baldkin]

Yeah, he really buggy whipped that one.

 

WHO SAYS THAT?!?

Dear NFL:

Thank you for scheduling IND-NO and BAL-JAX for Sunday and Monday night so our championship can get better ratings than your regular season match-ups.

Sincerely,

MLB

Beltre on his knee to hit one out...don't they know that's just not a classy thing to do?

[SoCal Brew Crew Fan]

Michael Young...just love that guy. Way underrated player.

Game 5 to Texas, 4-2. They now head to STL with two chances to win one. Gulp, says anyone who followed the Brewers in 1982.

[berniebrewer4life]

Thought this was appropriate.

Love that song on the video.

 

For the lack of attention this World Series has been getting, it has been pretty darn fun to watch. A 3 HR game from Pujols, three tight games, and a 3-2 series heading back to St. Louis. Here's to hoping for a classic Texas win in game 7.

Rainout for tonight...We dont have to worry about rain at Miller Park...just saying..

[trwi7]

There are a ton of Rangers fans there tonight.

There are a ton of Rangers fans there tonight.

It's pretty disrespectful of them to cheer for their ball club. For shame.

[Funketown]

As comical as the Brewers' defense was, I'm pretty sure they never did anything that bad (dropped pop-ups to start back-to-back innings).

I agree. Those errors were bad.

[burnzy24]

Not very classy back to back HR's by Beltre and Cruz.

[pitchleague]

I hope that the Rangers hold on to win this thing tonight.

 

But, at the same time, it makes me sad because that means no more baseball for 4+ months. Yeah, yeah, I know they're broadcasting Taiwan Series games, Caribbean Series games, etc. this off-season, plus there's all the awards and hot stove action. But it's not the same.

wow, talk about trying to give the game away
