I watched all 5 games, though baseball shouldn’t be played in November. Of course, I’m no fan of Renteria after the ‘97 Series.
If Texas had won it would still have been going on after the election, which is unheard I think. It didn’t even happen in the 9/11 delayed season of 2001 (off year elections) with a 7 game series and the end of the season delayed because of 9/11. Election day was 11/6 and game 7 was on 11/4. This time as I recall the WBC delayed the start of the season.
I wonder when the time will come for the Tribe and the Cubs. Neither team has made much of their most recent chances.
