Anyone watching this game? 12 to 1 in the bottom of the 5th!?

Red DIC
World Series
Hard to believe. What do you do about first base and no DH when it goes back to Colorado? My buddy told me the Indians and Bosox series was it. Whoever won would sweep. I guess we'll see.
Bitchin' double play right there... just throwing it out there.
3rd out, Sox back up to dominate in the bottom of the sixth.

Now this is a game worth watching! I bet they got shit cause ratings were down with such a blowout!
i'm split... go east coast (home) and root for the sox, or go new home and root for the Rox...
Hard to say yet....Cleveland fans said the same thing last week...last night's game was a far better showcase of two top teams vying for honors. Damn good pitching on both sides.
Go Sox!
Go Sox!

tell me as I im confused... how is it the world series when its just two American teams playing each other?
oh and congrats to the sox... saw them play last year at Fenway Park when I was over in the USA (in Boston)... good game!

Well, because at the time it was named the US was basically the only country where baseball was played. Hence, it was called the "World's Championship Series". By the time any other countries really got together to put any kind of competitive team together the name "World Series" was already a staple of the sport. Would have been a shame to change it. The Series was started around 1880(Though the MLB doesn't officially recognize any of them until 1903), and the first professional leagues in any other countries were started around the 30's-40's.
Also, technically, there is a pair of Canadian teams in the league so it isn't always just a pair of American teams.

GO SOX!!!!
it is the world series because of where the players are from. in actuality about 1/3 to 1/2 of the players in the game today are not from the US. So that is one reason that the name hasn't changed. Also it would just be a pain in the butt. who would watch the American Baseball Championship? i mean seriously. that and ABC the network would have a fit.. lol..
