The 2014 World Series Thread. Gamelive City Royals vs San Francisco Giants

Do the Royals have bobbleheads like this ...........

 

[FairWarning]

The 1st WS where neither team had 90 wins (full season).

KC has the fewest HR's for a WS team since the 59 White Sox. They have been pretty damn clutch though.

Love the avatar, Mr. Monkey.

He is my all time fave

Mine too! If Willie didn't play at Candlestick Park his latter years where the winds howled viciously in from left/lc to right/rc all the time and Arron didn't play at Atlanta's park dubbed "the launching pad" in his latter time IMO Mays 660 and Aaron's 755 would be almost even if not in Willie's favor!

So start this shit up. Don't know what we're waiting for. Get this shit going RIGHT NOW.

Muddy, I believe it does benefit the Royals! It gives Ned Yost additional time in familiarizing himself in how to manage the games in SF!

 

[Tron]

Ned Yost needs all the help he can get when it comes to managing

Tron, you think like I do that Bruce Botchy makes the Hall of Fame if he wins 3rd WS title? I had to look at his record, won 90+ games twice and a NL Pennant with the Padres!

After slow start at SF now has them cashing in on all their opportunities to the max! Maybe needs a longer tenure of regular season success?

 

[Mudcat]

My money to win the series is on

*drumroll*

San Fran +102

 

[bacon]

Is it the same if they win without Brian Wilson's dumpster mustache closing it?

I don't know that it is.

 

[Mudcat]

I like saying Bumgarner

 

[Tron]

Royals Game 1 -102 (1 unit)

Royals Win World Series -110 (2 units)

Royals are currently -105 tonight and -120 for series at the same book (5Dimes).

I am fucking amazing!

 

[FairWarning]

Thanks to TV running the show, they have killed 90% of the buzz for this WS because of the long delay. I'm sure if the ratings suck, they will blame KC's small market instead of the long delay.

 

[Mudcat]

I prefer the Royals for obvious Cinderella reasons, however I picked the Giants and I like to be right and that takes precedence.

So screw this guy:

They just didn't have it tonight! Haven't followed baseball this year but appears if Royals can get the lead, very tough to beat!
