I’m in mourning but I suppose I need to root for the Rangers in the big show.

CORRECTION — 5 HR’s total as Lucroy hoists a 2-run shot; 5-4 w/ MIL still batting in the bottom of the 2nd.

I think the World Series is going to be one huge slugfest.

How good is St Louis’ bullpen? Because that is what will decide the series, the team with the better bullpen.

I think St Louis is trying to outdo the Rangers’ 15 runs from last night.

11-5 Cards and only bottom of the 5th. Could be.

Come on Scrabble, shut them down.

11-6

Just as bad a score over on the football side. Chicago is winning big. At least over there I get to see my former soccer player kick for the Bears.

Looks like we’ll be meeting you in St Louis.

Should be a good series, both teams are fairly similar, can bash the ball, have decent, if not spectacular starting rotations.

It is the AL Champs Texas Rangers vs. the NL Champs St Louis Cardinals in the World Series!
Go Cards!(With the NL home-field advantage!)
It should be(I hope)a good one!

“Will they stop showing that stupid George W Bush during the game?”

Viewing in L.A., they were keeping GWB out of the shots of Nolan Ryan as much as possible, didn't show the meeting between Dubya and Leyland either. It's almost like he wasn't there.

I didn't want this result: too much RED... my eyes, my eyes...:)

Since I was totally wrong about outcomes, I will not make any predictions. I like Rangers because they are Dubya's team, cheered for them v. Giants last year. However, I'm an NL girl and it's nice to see Raffy (Furcal) going to the WS. I hope he can get those throws to first under control.

Eric Karros was right, he predicted Rangers in 6 for the ALCS early on. Let's see what his pick is for WS.
