World Series 2012 Observations
October 30, 2012 by Bill Gilbert · Leave a Comment
- With the success that Marco Scutaro has had with his short stroke, will other hitters follow suit? Not likely. Chicks still dig the long ball.
- If Lasagna is nature’s perfect food (according to Garfield) then Matt Cain is nature’s perfect pitcher. Durable, no wasted motion, works quickly and commands his pitches.
- For the third straight year, no Eastern Division team was in the World Series.
- Are razors not allowed in Clubhouses?
- Has anyone ever had worse looking facial hair than Hunter Pence?
- Can Tim McCarver make a point without repeating it 3 or 4 times?
- The turning point in the series was when Verlander got hammered in Game 1.
- Were Miguel Cabrera and Avasail Garcia separated at birth?
- Bruce Bochy must be a great manager if he can win with Ryan Theriot as designated hitter.
- Why does the National League keep winning the World Series (3 straight years) but gets killed in Inter-League play)?
- This was a textbook example of winning with pitching and defense.
