Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 22, 2014, 06:44:35 PM 99 & I discussed this earlier about ratings without the Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers, & maybe the Mets.
Quote The Kansas City Royals were a great story in baseball this year, but as a team with little star power that hails from a small market, their surprise run to face the San Francisco Giants in the World Series may not be resonating with more casual sports fans. Fox attracted a still-sizable audience to Game 1 of the Fall Classic on Tuesday — 12.2 million — but this left it tied with the 2012 Texas-San Francisco opener, which previously had been the smallest audience to kick things off. Last year’s World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and Boston Red Sox averaged about 15 million, jumping 23% from 2012. http://variety.com/2014/tv/news/world-series-ratings-off-to-worst-start-on-record-1201336468/ :popcorn2: Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Chechem on October 22, 2014, 07:02:19 PM GAME 2

This game will test their mettle. :dog: Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: ricky023 on October 26, 2014, 03:14:37 PM GAME FIVE Game 5's are usually the most important game in a best-ofseven series.

This would make the opponent to have to win 2 back to back games. Thanks for clearing this one up again. Your better than a dictionary to me. :D, RTR! Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 26, 2014, 06:11:40 PM Game 4 lasted exactly 4 hours last night due to all the scoring, especially all the singles. There were 28 hits, with 5 doubles, no triples or homers. That's 23 singles.
:lol2: Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 26, 2014, 11:08:16 PM Well, I had so much going on I never had a chance to post on game 5 of the World Series. Giants won 5-0 for a 3-2 lead in the Series. The next games are in KC, but Giants look primed to win their 3rd World Series in past 5 years. Their starting pitcher Bumgarner was awesome again. He threw a 4 hit shutout against Royals with 8 K's and NO walks. Total domination. If the Braves had a money pitcher like him in the 1990's, they would have won 3-4 World Series. Bumgarner won 18 games in regular season.
:dog: Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: 2Stater on October 28, 2014, 08:06:28 PM Royals have erupted for 4 runs so far in the bottom of the 2nd. 1 out and runners on 1st and 3rd. They've already chased Peavy. They lead 4-0.
Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: 2Stater on October 28, 2014, 08:08:38 PM 6-0, still only 1 out.

Still batting, 2 on and 1 out. Cain hit a bloop single with bases loaded which scored 2 to make the game 4-0. Wild pitch, runners on 2nd & 3rd, still 1 out. Hosmer gets bounce hit over drawn in shortstop for a double and 2 more runs score. 6-0 KC. :dance: Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: 2Stater on October 28, 2014, 08:10:54 PM 7-0, still in the second inning.

:clap: Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 28, 2014, 08:27:43 PM Top of 3rd. SF has runners on 1st & 2nd, 1 out. Bases loaded with a walk. Posey coming to bat. He has power. Double play. 7-0 still.
Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: 2Stater on October 28, 2014, 08:28:47 PM Nice job getting out of that bases loaded jam by KC. Still 7-0 going to the bottom of the 3rd.

Don't be surprised it Bumgarner pitches for SF in relief since he has shut KC down twice in the Series. He will have 2 days rest. Both teams can win, but KC has the home field. :popcorn2: Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 29, 2014, 07:21:16 PM Tim Hudson starting pitcher for Giants. He's oldest starting pitcher in WS history at age 39. If he is on this could be bad news for KC.
:dog: Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 29, 2014, 07:42:01 PM Giants have scored 2 in the top of the 2nd. KC pitcher a little shaky with a hit batsman who ended up scoring. 2-0 Giants
Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 29, 2014, 07:56:57 PM KC has scored 2 in the bottom of 2nd and still batting but their starting catcher Perez was hit in the leg and is having trouble running and moving around. He's on 2nd. Hudson is removed with runners on 1st & 2nd & 2 out. I feel for Hudson since pitching in the WS has been his dream.
Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 29, 2014, 08:38:15 PM 3-2 SF top of 4th. Runners on 1st & 3rd, 1 out. Great game, so far. KC struck out dangerous hitter, 2 outs after a 98 mph fastball. Third out, bottom of 4th & KC coming up.

Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: 2Stater on October 29, 2014, 09:39:47 PM Both have great pitchers in right now. Somehow, KC needs to manufacture a run or 2, but will be very difficult to do against Bumgardner.
Title: Re: *** WORLD SERIES - in-game thread (not the Braves or Orioles) Post by: 2Stater on October 29, 2014, 09:53:00 PM Going to the bottom of the 8th, still 3-2, Giants.
