I like how they are talking about how the Cubs are still the favorites because of their depth.

They are getting stomped.

Easy game. I may consider adjusting my prediction down a game.

Nice finish by Allen there. And nice bat flip. Cubs always use so many pitching changes?

Montero is injured to catch but decent PH bat.

Contreras is pretty good, he'll PH in Ross starts. Ross won't PH in Contreras starts

So do I understand they moved the start time up an hour due to rain?

By the way...I watched them a lot during the NLCS but ARod, Pete Rose and Frank Thomas are tremendous on the pre and post game shows.

I thought Pete sounded drunk during the pregame, but he was fine after.

As I said earlier Print the shirts. Cleveland pitching is way too good to lose this series

What do Roberto Perez, Gary Carter, Johnny Bench, Gene Tenace and Yogi Berra all have in common?

They are the only 5 catchers in MLB history to have a multi HR World Series game.

You disagree? I mean come on the Indians did it all in a much tougher league than the Cubs and it shows. This Chicago team basically just tries to hit every pitch out of the park, when as KC showed last year, it is about great contact hitting

Arod is very good, Pete can be but also goes for goofy. Frank doesn't usually add a ton as he's busy laughing at Pete.
