    World Series Game 1 thread
    I'm rooting on the Rays, but the only way I can bet is on the Phillies. That applies to Game 1 and the series in general.

    If the Rays were -120 or less I could maybe bet that. Not what they are now. The value isn't there.

    That being said, I picked Longoria to have more total bases than Howard tonight.

      Coste is starting? Where? At DH?

      Stairs is better, but he's a lefty. I see your point.

            the line reversed itself late.

            Went from Phillies -106/-104 to -101/-109 pretty quickly. Not a huge move.

            Coste is the DH. The Phillies have a weakness at DH. They don't have another good bat.

              Not surprising. I think the Phillies win tonight, and then the smart play would be Rays to win the series at plus money. Before Game 1 there was no value in them.

                why did they overshift against Utley?

                  Kazmir is very fortunate. He put Feliz and Ruiz on and got out of it because of Victorino's stupidity. You don't run against Upton on a shallow fly.

                  Kazmir has just been bad.

                    I'm confused. Why isn't Baldelli starting against a lefty?

                    Why is Zobrist, an infielder, starting instead?

                      Pena needed to go for the DP there, with slow runners coming from home and first.

                        Nice job, FOX. Ignoring the solo shot to continue replaying a meaningless chat they did with the Philly pitching coach.

                          after Howard fouled a couple off, Kazmir threw a pitch way up and in.

                          Terrible. Kazmir has been really lucky, or it could've been 6 instead of 3 runs.

                            wow, so Upton became the second player in MLB history to hit into a DP in each of his first two WS ABs, after Graig Nettles.

                            Kazmir probably doesn't finish the 6th.

                              this game probably stays under. Stunner.
