World Series baseball is unquestionably different from regular-season play. But what's Johnson going to pitch? Game 6? Then who pitches Game 7? Schilling, after two-days' rest (with only three-days' rest for the nine-inning game he's expected to pitch in Game 4)? Johnson might be willing to sacrifice his career for a ring, but the real question is, is Schilling?

But what's Johnson going to pitch? Game 6?

If Schilling pitches Game 4 like he pitched Game 1 and Game 1 vs. Cards and Game 5 vs. Cards (are you picking up on a pattern?) and Johnson pitches Game 6 like he pitched Game 2, there will be no need for a Game 7. D'backs in 6 (course a week ago, I'd have said Yankees in 5).

Game 7? What makes you think there will be 7? ;o)

From what I hear Shilling will pitch game 4 if the yanks cut it to 2-1. That would put johnson to start game 5 and then there's no reason to discuss game 6 or game 7. :-)
