southsider2k5 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Christopher Kamka @ckamka 59m59 minutes ago Since the last #WorldSeries game at Wrigley Field in 1945, there have been 405 World Series games at 45 different ballparks.

caulfield12 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Well, that's a lot more defensible than the Nats and Strasburg at least. Probably puts Jeyward, as Maddon calls him, back into the line-up unless he's just there as pr and defensive replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Just too much risk," Theo Epstein said. Thats too bad. Watching him attempting to catch the ball when he is healthy is comedy. Just imagine the in the park homers that he is saving by not playing the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but this is just local and it is the Cubs. You know all those Cubs fans who never even think about the White Sox.

Dick Allen Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 (edited) My dad was a little kid in 1945, and his cousin had just returned from the war and was visiting. His cousin took him to the WS at Wrigley. The bought tickets at the box office the day of the game. My dad has the trifecta, attended WS games at Wrigley, Comiskey, and USCF. I wonder how many people can say that right now. Edited October 28, 2016 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a damned waste. The Cubs are in the World Series and they are wasting time on things like Joe Buck and what Sox fans aren't rooting for the Cubs.

LittleHurt05 Posted October 28, 2016 Author Share Posted October 28, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 27, 2016 -> 02:40 PM) Gusts up to 40 mph blowing out tomorrow. They should just start Otero tomorrow with his sinker. Winds still forecast in the 25-35 mph range blowing out. Over/under holding steady at 8. What am I missing here? In the regular season, it would be at least 10 no matter who is on the mound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is Hendricks and the prospect of the Indians' bullpen (Miller), since he's had 3 days rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are good points, probably why I don't really gamble anymore. A classic 12-10 Wrigley game in the World Series would be pretty funny though.

Buehrle>Wood Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Don't think I've ever seen a o/u of 10 in baseball but I do think over is play tonight. That said don't think wind affects Hendricks too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A classic 12-10 Wrigley game in the World Series would be pretty funny though. Apparently Tomlin has been throwing more curveballs recently too (over 40% against the Jays) and the Cubs aren't very good against them. With that said, I'm still seriously considering taking Cubs - 2.5 +180 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said don't think wind affects Hendricks too much. Every game at Coors Field is in the 10.5-11.5 range, and the occasional Wrigley wind blowing out game. But yeah, those are the only outliers.
