That was an insanely fast played game considering it's the World Series.

Maybe everyone wanted to get out of the heat.

game was played in 2.28 hours, the fastest WS game since 1992 i believe.

What I'm most surprised is that Kershaw hasn't choked yet. I keep waiting and waiting for his usual choke job and nothing. Bummer.

There's still Game 5 to come, in Houston. Might be a different story there.

The close by LF/LCF fence in Houston says that you may be right; especially if the slider isn't totally on like it was yesterday.

Look at him. He might as well be.

Hope Houston tee's off on Hill's curve early

Come on Rich, hang a few...

Need to get into (and use up) that Doyer bullpen tonight!

one of my co-workers has had dodger season seats for 20+ years. good seats too, on the field level just past the visitors dugout. asked her about face value and she said they were $340 each. she sold them for game 2 for $1800 each, then bought two tickets in the upper deck for $600 each.

i can't ever remember such insane ticket prices for a major championship event anywhere. this is beyond nuts.

Nothing like a $2,400 profit in one day.

Tonight is a bit of a must win for Houston. The next two pitching matchups look pretty rough for them, and then they have Kershaw waiting after that. It seems unlikely that they will be able to win at least 2/3 of those games.

Fixed for accuracy.

When Scully said "I need a catcher" I thought Mike Scioscia was going to come out, lol.

Gotta admit, the history on the television right now is pretty sweet.

God the Dodgers are so fucking lucky.  What a dumb play by Taylor.

American League pitchers don't fare so well, in the: "9th batter, Automatic out" League.......................

I suppose Verlander could've attempted to bunt?......

Wut ?

He did bunt.  Successfully. 

[Blarg]

You are a couple of innings behind. 

[UndertheHalo]

Damn, missed more then I thought I guess

Series Over 

[Blarg]

The Astros are now in trouble. They have the Dodgers bullpen to contend with to try and scrape up two runs to tie.
