I never quite understand how ratings for a World Series with New York teams or other big markets, get higher ratings. The World Series is the highlight of the baseball season, no matter which teams are in it. I’ve always looked forward to the World Series, no matter whether a team I like is in it, regardless of whether it’s a big market team or not. I guess there are a lot of casual fans, who will watch a Yankees World Series, but not one with a team such as Tampa Bay Rays or Kansas City Royals?? Point is, all strong baseball fans will watch no matter which teams are in it.

My father still remembered & may he RIP & he used to talk about this game endlessly when the NY Giants got into the World Series when some third baseman named Thompson from the NY Giants hit a homerun in the bottom on the ninth to win the game for the NY Giants and get them into the World Series.

There were no televisions in 1951 so my father heard this game on the radio.

I loved watching the KC Royals win the World Series not too long ago.

I predicted the Houston Astros would get into the World Series this year and I am still predicting that same outcome.

My father still remembered ... third baseman named Thompson from the NY Giants hit a home run ...
Yes, my father too and that's why I'm also a Giants fan.
