Thread Name: BS: World Series
Subject: RE: BS: World Series
It looks very much like a Giants-Angel World Series. The Angels seem to be a team of destiny, while Dusty Baker's guys should provide a good series. With all the turmoil in the game this season, baseball desperately needs a shot in the arm, but I'm only sorry we could not have seen 'Budlite' present the trophy to the Twins. It will come down to pitching, as it always does in the game of baseball, and the clubs are very close in that dept. with Nen and Persival being great closers. This time around, Barry Bonds has risen to the occasion and should be a big factor in the series. Somewhere in that big roundup in the sky, Gene Autry is smiling down as the former owner of the Angels, gets to see his club in the big dance. In closing, I think that the game of baseball has done the youth of North America a great disservice in starting the playoff games so late that the next generation of fans are snug in their beds by the start of the games. This is a subject for another thread. I like the Angels in six.
