...in about 85% of cases) to get a championship it's amazing to see. There's so many stories that have been redeemed on this team that I just can't help but feel happy for. *Jamie Moyer has been in the MLB since 1984...before I was even born!

The forecast for South Bend today includes a wind chill , and yes, you're not confused, it IS only October 27th.

And hey, whoever plays the best baseball is usually who wins the Series.
В MLB продолжается World Series. Rays, одержавшие победу во втором матче, в третьем совершили отличный comeback. После шестого иннинга подопечные Джо Мэддона проигрывали 1:4, но в 7-м и 8-м иннингах сумели восстановить паритет. Однако на большее сил не хватило, и в низу 9-го иннинга филадельфийцы благодаря удачному граундболу вырвали победу. Четвертый матч стал для Rays настоящей катастрофой. Они...
