5 Reasons Why the World Series sucks
zachls.blogspot.com 10/28/2009 — Game 1 of the World Series is hours away and, with the exception of 2002, we will likely be watching something else. Maybe it's the teams, the ample other sporting events going on or FOX's telecasts, but this time of year, we just sorta lose interest. ...

Tonight Is Must-Watch Baseball
hirejimessian.com 10/29/2009 — I don’t have too much interest in the World Series this year.

Mr. November
hardballtimes.com 10/30/2009 — This will be the second time the World Series stretches into November.

The Yankees' Bats Come Alive in Game 3 —
The Sports Section
It's only right, in a postseason marked time and time again by umpire FAIL, that the play that swung the momentum of Game 3 — and perhaps the momentum of the entire World Series — was called incorrectly on the field, only to be overturned by instant replay. And it's only right, in ...

Yanks have no answer for Lee, drop series opener —
River Avenue Blues
For the first time in six Octobers, a World Series game was played in the Bronx tonight. Given how things unfolded, maybe the Yankees wished it had just kept raining. That’s about the only thing that could have stopped Cliff Lee tonight.
The game started in rather ominous fashion, when ...

Well, at least the Yankees avoided being shutout in Game One of a World Series for the first time in their history (covering 40 World Series).
Funny, for some reason, this didn’t feel like a World Series game. Maybe it was the damp conditions with all the mist and the lack of crispness ...
