No reason the Yankees can't win it either. Top to bottom, they're a better ball club and deserve it. The Tigers have done it with smoke and mirrors, spit, glue, one good starting pitcher, a manager with a career losing record, and batted balls being caught or not caught at just the right time. Their luck is unbelievable. Time for it to run out. Would have liked to see the scenario the Wrath of John blogger talked about. Did you check that out?
Pat, to be safe they need to score many runs so bunting in the first inning can't be attempted. They need to play for the big inning. I miss the 1st inning the other day, did they actually try to bunt in the first inning?
