My apologies for watching. When I tuned in the Cubs were ahead 6 to 3. If the score was reversed I would probably gone to bed. But with 108 years at stake I decided to watch. Now there is extra innings and a rain delay… Brian [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mlb-and-here-comes-the-post-season/767171.md?page=46) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/mlb-and-here-comes-the-post-season/767171.md?page=48)
