That was one of the most dominant starting pitching performances I've seen in years.

Watching the Dodgers melt down is fun

if there's two on-two out, or two out bases loaded late in game six, you have to think about using Yesavage for one out

I mean sure we'd take the SLG from the top of the order, because we clearly lacked there this year.

But the approach is from the bottom of the order is incredible. They are just pesky and put so much stress o nthe pitcher to the perfect. Seems like a bunch of JAGs mostly but they do really well with 2 strikes and RISP. Reminds me of us in the recent past.

How far back does history go? Bob Gibson had 3 more dominant outings in one WS. Yesage was very good but not one of the most dominating outings in WS history.

I loathe the Dodgers and want no ammo added to their current 'dynasty', but I really want the Astros to be the first expansion team to win three World Series. Tough choice for me.

As read on a different forum:

I've often said that baseball is not a sport, it's a relational database management system where table data is generated by ten dudes standing in a field.

And when it comes to nerdy sports, there is none involving more nerdy math and stats than baseball. Almost to the extent that its not even a sport, its just nerds comparing numbers with each other.

Watching Dodger fans a few games in a row hearkens me back to my favorite Onion headline of recent years.
