All I know is the the Yankees won’t be playing an elimination game on Friday, and the Astros will. ![]()
Out of curiousity is that offer open to anybody?
This is absolute bullshit.
God, I hate when teams fix things that aren’t broken. Barnes has been hitting the crap out of the ball so let’s play Grandal. Everyone has been hitting the ball better than Granderson, so lets put him in too. It’s not like this was an important game or anything.
No thank you. I do not gamble or bet. Besides as I said, I’ll allow they can still beat Yanks though it seems unlikely, I don’t see them also beating the Dodgers.
Nope. Sorry, chickens. I am not prepared to count you, as you’ve yet to hatch.
Good philosophy.
I will just settle for a, “Nanny, nanny, nanny, I told you so!”
It will make it entertaining.
You in?
You are taking “tempting fate” to new levels. But I’m going to grab some popcorn and enjoy!
Sure, that I’m up for. Enjoy.
Yes, yes I do. ![]()
Yeah, well, can’t argue that. Though, in fairness, the Gints haven’t been a real problem over the years, have they?
Though that bit about conjuring up an earthquake to avoid playing a game was a bit much… ![]()
Yankees World Series tickets go on sale to the general public tomorrow morning, by the way. I know my chances of being able to snag a couple are next-to-zero, but I’m going to try anyway since the lowest non-SRO tix available on StubHub right now are well over $500 apiece.
That’s just genius. I’m not even going to be in town for the world series but I think I’ll try to snag some Dodgers tickets to resell.
Theoretically, I would be taking a red-eye from the West Coast on a Saturday night, arriving home Sunday morning, grabbing a few hours of sleep, then hopping on a train for a Sunday night game in New York. That is, of course, IF the Dodgers make the World Series, IF the Yankees join them, and IF I can get ahold of tickets somehow. But IF all those things come true (harmonicamoon’s chutzpah notwithstanding), I wouldn’t miss it for the world. Ever since I watched those mysterious brake lights in the parking lot of Dodger Stadium as Gibson’s home run sailed out on my TV, I have dreamed of going to see the Dodgers play in a World Series game. I will do what I have to do.
I am at home watching the post season. I am viewing the beautiful Dodger ball park, and I have been coveting some seats. They are field level and right next to the Dodger dugout. They have these nifty little tables on the front row. So, you don’t have to balance your hot dog and beverage on your lap.
Any guesses on how much these kick a$$ seats sell for? Did I mention they are at field level? They are the cat’s meow. I would look great there!
No need to guess. They are Ketel One Baseline Club VIP seats. StubHub has them for Game 1. Price range of $6,000 - $25,000 per seat.
We’ll look for you on TV!
I get that and totally relate but I’m on a work trip in Denver so it would be more like fly from LA to Denver, work, fly to LA watch game, fly to Denver. Just to make matters worse I’m taking my PE test Friday so I’m going to be “studying” while watching the game Tuesday and Wednesday. I’ll be in Virginia on Saturday through the end of the series that’s like next door to New York, right? Maybe I should shop for NY tickets.
If I go, I will be traveling from Virginia-adjacent. You’re welcome to join me on the train. ![]()
(If you were serious, it’s about a 3.5 hour train ride from DC to NY, plus another 45 minutes on the subway up to the stadium.)
Serious enough that’ll I’ll try to buy tickets but not serious enough that I’ll book the train ticket. 4-hour commute to the world series, that’s not crazier than buying season tickets to a different NL West team so I can watch the Dodgers 10 times a year?
Thank you. Very nice link. Incredible seats!
Nice to know I won’t be sitting with the riff-raff.
