Nothing like baseball in December, even if it is black and white, the Yankees, and over 50 years ago.<br /><br />FWIW, this was the first WS I ever watched. I was eight years old and rooted for the Yankees (I was living in NY, after all). Mostly what I remember is that our school bus driver was a Pirates fan and razzed us all at the end of the series.<br /><br />So much fun to watch a game without all the distractions of today's broadcasts.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15720293202890878993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-86036776455060121202010-12-15T17:15:08.898-08:002010-12-15T17:15:08.898-08:00If their December 2010 keeps going like it has so ...If their December 2010 keeps going like it has so far, I bet the Yanks, despite a spunky fightback, end up losing to a walk-off homer.MacLeodCartoonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02508412401089448874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-59652214053146265032010-12-15T16:55:45.822-08:002010-12-15T16:55:45.822-08:00Long before the MFYs choked away the 2004 ALCS in ...Long before the MFYs choked away the 2004 ALCS in singularly historic fashion, they choked away the 1960 World Series in singularly historic fashion. <br /><br />How do you score twice as many runs as your opponent (55-27) and still lose? The Pirates had a series team ERA of 7.11. Only a handful of <i>losing</i> teams have had series performances over 7.00.<br /><br />What a sad sack franchise the MFYs are.Benjaminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00421785398444449007noreply@blogger.com
