The World Series - St Louis &amp; Boston Inflate your Upload Space

Game one is moments away from starting. I hope the action on the field is more exciting then all the pre-game crap. The introductions are taking forever... They sure know how to stretch this out. Maybe they will get the game going soon

It should be a good match up.

I predict St Louis in 6 games. GO NATIONAL LEAGUE!

Boston draws first blood... Up 3 to 0 in the first inning with only one out and a runner still on second.

I have NO understanding of baseball, neither the teams' strength nor the game itself.

But nonetheless, as always, I'm rooting for St. Louis Cardinals, as they're the only team I've actually seen play (well them and some Chicago team, but it was IN St. Louis!). McGuire hit a homerun and basically won the game for them.

Lots of good memories associated with the Cardinals for me, so I hope they win.

This one looks to last a while into the night, the final score definately will not be 4-2.

It's nice to see the Cards not roll over and play dead after going down 4 - 0 in the first. Should be a great series...

Considering that he was marginally physically able to play last game and this, he might be done....I hope not, for his sake.

It was not the cleanest played game, surely, but when you're spotted a 5 run cushion early in the game, you can more readily survive such mishaps.

Game 2 will be much more low scoring, at least from the Card's perspective. Morris however gives up homeruns like Manny muffs catches.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I'm surprised that you aren't more pissed at the pitch & call Foulke got to strike out Edmonds and end the threat in the first of the eighth. That pitch was clearly a mile inside (it wasn't even close) and robbed the Cardinals of a chance to grab a lead they would need.

When the hell did Bellhorn become a consistently clutch homer guy?

Almost left when it was 7-2. I mean, who wants to watch a blow out?? Who'd have guessed the Red Sox would start playing like the old Brooklyn Dodgers?
