Thursday: Blustery & cool with partly sunny skies. Highs in the low 50s. 44 and mainly clear for the start of Game 2.
Now how did the Tigers not win with great base runners like Prince Fielder?
What an athlete. He looked like he just wanted to curl up in comfy chair in his fancy media room with a big ol bag of potato chips that whole series.
(That was a GREAT instinctive play by Pedroia by the way).
I was watching the game with my kids and one of their friends. We all burst out laughing (ala the Butt Fumble) on this play! Too funny! Fielder is a doofus - he obviously thought he was closer to the bag than he was. Leland's reaction was hilarious too. The kind of look you give your teenager when he's just thrown the football indoors and knocked over a lamp.
Unicorns! Show ponies!
Sure, Boston and St. Louis are two fanbases (outside of New York) that couldn't deserve this success less. But if you go into this World Series accepting that one of them is going to win, and you're never going to hear the end of it, perhaps you'll be able to appreciate the actual players in the best pure baseball matchup we could have gotten.
Huh? He had been horrible in the postseason before that hit.Victorino has been HUGE this postseason.

Yea true, that TB series went by so quick I completely forgot about it.He was actually excellent in the TB series, including getting the series-clinching base hit in that matchup.
i can't believe i missed watching that game.
I thought i was tuned in but it turns out it was a duck dynasty marathon.
I'll vouch for this, I'm a rays fan and that bastard always kills us. Was pretty good in 08 world series if I remember correctly. Crafty veteran player, gotta respect his game.He was actually excellent in the TB series, including getting the series-clinching base hit in that matchup.
Really, brah? You didn't care about 2004? Probably the greatest postseason we will ever see in our entire lives with a 0-3 comeback against the hated Yankees and ending an 86 year drought, and you didn't care?Starting to come around on the Red Sox. Used to hate them for just trying to buy championships and always living in the shadow of the Yankees (kind of like the Jets to the Patriots), but it seems like their personality has really changed. I didn't care when they won in 2004 or 2007, but it could be different this time.
