No where in the article does it inform the reader what the score was, or who won the game.

This is the state of journalism today.

I'm happy for you.

Also, it was wonderful to see Sandy Koufax (with Rob Lowe) looking so happy and healthy.

I'm 71 and from Pittsburgh, PA and watched Sandy and Don Drysdale many times at old Forbes Field.

One twinight double header back around 1966 I remember well the Dodgers came to town as a very good team, but the Pirates won both games by very low scores such as 3-2 and 2-1.

I saw Sandy Koufax over those years often ...... he had the greatest curve ball in baseball.

Our seats were 15 rows behind the Pirate dugout on the first base side. My brother and I spent a lot of time in those seats as my father's company had those season tickets for years.

Anyhow, as always, that evening Sandy Koufax's curveball was nearly unhittable. ((It would ride in toward the plate ...... and about 10 to 15 feet from the plate that ball would fall ..... like it was DROPPING OFF A TABLE.)) It was a thing of beauty. And as a guy who eventually played some baseball for money, I wished the Pirates had a guy with that pitch ...... and the accompanying heat/smoke/fast ball.

Anyhow ....... let's have some more great games in this World Series, but could they be a little shorter?
