    This game is on an hour earlier due to inclement weather. Posting this now because I have errands to run all day.

    Jayson Stark detailed some ominous stats for the Cubs after losing game one. The previous nine time they have lost a game one in a best of seven series they have lost. Teams in general who have lost game one of the World Series have lost 24 of the last 28 times.

    Damn you sure had a lot of tests as a kid. Maybe that's my problem, I don't think I was tested for anything. :lol:

    ...granted that winning game 1 does give that team an advantage. Game 5 always seems to be the pivotal game to me.

    ...but out of all 108 WS played, the loser of game 1 has come back to win 40 of them...so Jayson's smaller sample size was likely used just to fit his narrative.

    ...just sayin'.




    ...1996 Yanx lost the first 2 WS games at home and came back to win the next 4...and I don't even want to bring up 2004. :bgrin:

    Looks like the Cubs are going to take this one. Arrieta is sharp tonight as the Cubbies are up 5-0 in the 6th.

    I think even if I was an Indians fan I would say enough with the damn drum. To me it's one of the most annoying things in all of sports.

    Beating of the drum was all the excitement that could arouse the Cleveland fans
    tonight. Series even 1-1
