Did you realize that it’s been 9 years since the World Series went the full 7 games? Personally, although I do want the Rangers to win it, I’m slightly rooting for the Cards tonight just to push the Series to its limit. Then again, I’d rather just see the Rangers win.
I know this is about 4 days too late, but does anybody notice anything missing here?

Tonight begins another round of the always exciting inter-league play. The Mats are facing off against the Los Angeles Angels of Anehiem, California. Maybe not the most exciting matchup, but I guess it’ll at least be cool to watch players who I never get to watch. I always like Torii Hunter. I think a lot […]
