(25,862 posts)I mean, really, it was only 9 innings.
Try reading the book "Bottom of the 33rd" if you want to know what a genuinely long baseball game is all about.

(13,524 posts)ran into Game 5 or so of last years World Series, and I just got such a feel for them!!! Addison and Javier and Contreras and of course that Antny Rizzo and Mr. Bryant and Mr. Heyward...
Watching last years series was the ONLY break I have gotten from the abysmal pre and post election agony...so...hate baseball, LOVE CUBS!!

I also had a fleeting notion that both teams were playing to lose. And some of the dramatic flash points were perfectly timed for emotional effect. Great game.
