Tied at the top of the tenth. Still anyone's game. It's going to make history either way....

Man. That was an emotional roller coaster. And I once called this World Series "boring"... Sorry for getting a bit too overly dramatic... I get that way from time to time. :lol:

Overcoming a 3-1 deficit, with the last two games coming on the road, and *the* most insane game 7 ... nay, the most insane *World Series* game I've ever seen...and quite possibly *of all time*... Man. ... Man. I just... Man.

It's either this or Game 6 of the 2011 WS for me. 1991 and 1993's final World Series games were also pretty dang great for different reasons.

You know. I'm probably going to get a reputation now as the guy who goes bonkers at baseball games. Well, there are worse things to be known for. :P

Ah, yes, game 6 of the 2011 World Series was pretty nuts, too. I was grumbling a lot, but you know. :P Didn't see the '91 or '93 series, though.

'91 was the first one I was allowed to stay up and watch. It also had an extra innings finish in Game 7. '93 had Toronto's Joe Carter hitting a series-ending home run (This one is LOUD, by the way). It was the last time a Canadian team won a World Championship in any of the four major sports leagues, too.

The 1993 World Series is one of my earliest childhood memories. It's probably why I became such a baseball nut.

A few years ago, active MLB players were polled asking what they thought was the most memorable postseason home run, and sure enough, Joe Carter topped the list

Dexter Fowler jumped ship to the Cards. That might be payback for Heyward going to Chicago the year before for St. Louis, pending on how it plays out. They still probably need an infielder to contend again, though.
