I think Detroit will beat the Yankees. Verlander will probably get 2 games in the series and on a bit of rest.

2-2 count bottom of the ninth and trailing by one run. That's the sort of things kids dream about doing.

I got on the plane at that point and the game was finished just as I landed. Baseball can be boring at times but when it's good....!

And the guy that hit the HR was batting 0.108 on the season.

Hope Detroit win. Be nice for the fans. And they have Doug Fister, being all fisty.

by JGK Fri 30 Sep 2011, 06:50

Shut up you.

Do you like it when a bloke gets all fisty? confused

by Yorkie Jill Sun 02 Oct 2011, 02:41

No, and neither would the Yankees. He's doing it right now, in fact.

Soz JGK. I feel sorry for Detroiters and their sorry NFL team.

I see from the papers that the Sox have dropped Francona too. Bit harsh. 2 WS in 7 years ain't bad.

by JGK Sun 02 Oct 2011, 04:23

Well Fister's been fisted by Robinson Cano.

by JGK Tue 04 Oct 2011, 04:55

Bugger - Detroit go 2-1 up.

Which has more subtlety ... 20/20 or baseball?

by JGK Fri 07 Oct 2011, 03:11

Fister doing well in the deciding game 5. Tigers are 3-1 up at the top of the 6th.

Baseball. By about a million miles.

by JGK Fri 07 Oct 2011, 08:16

Yankees gone despite outscoring Detroit by 28 runs to 17 over the series.

Cards beat Phillies in a 1-0 classic between 2 great pitchers.

So Rangers v Tigers for the AL and Cards v Brewers for the NL.

Looks like even the Lions are half decent this season... What odds a Detroit double?

by JGK Mon 17 Oct 2011, 08:09

So it's Texas v St Louis for the World Series. St Louis smashed Milwaukee today in game 6.

by skully Mon 17 Oct 2011, 08:13

The Chucks v the Jokers.

smashed is the word. 12-6 thrashage.

Cards win the first WS game 3-2.

by Yorkie Jill Thu 20 Oct 2011, 15:46

I fell asleep sometime in the 8th. Cards looked to be hanging on well.

Is it 7 games, the WS?

by JGK Fri 21 Oct 2011, 02:54

Yes 7 games (like the Conference Playoffs).

A very tight 2nd game as well - 0-0 in the middle of the 7th. Only 5 hits in total.

Chance for someone to be a hero with one swing.

by Yorkie Jill Fri 21 Oct 2011, 02:59

I'm having to watch it in French. The English channel is all blurry and bleh.

Extremely tight. Literally nothing in it. For now.

by horace Fri 21 Oct 2011, 07:56

gooooo cards...knock off those hicks

by JGK Fri 21 Oct 2011, 14:21

Hicks won with 2 runs in the 9th.

Qunts.
