    Baseball playoffs offer more drama than any other

    Best time of the year. I love baseball playoffs. Have not watched 2 innings all season. Now is the time.

    the pitching slows down even more in playoffs granted last 2 innings that pause and slow adds drama but for first 5 -6 innings it really bogs down at times. also TV coverage with the announcers shutting up now and the different shots around the ballpark only, how that's produced late in tight spots adds to a good show. credit for that. overall l A-

    hockey playoffs for me off the charts drama and excitement A+.


    enjoy the post season and your FAV teams everyone.

    nothing like when every pitch matters to the team itself - not just our bets.

    Do you consider every team still playing as in the playoffs? Or do you have to win wild card game to be considered in the playoffs?

    They consider the wild card game as part of the playoffs. To me it's just a one game playoff like when div winners used to play the monday game to get in. It's a joke to tell your fans you made the playoffs unless you win the wild card game.

    I agree, LB. That celebration following the Jays win was embarrassing.

    LB where will you be watching the game on Tuesday?

    I think we are going to go to the Fox on Fort York.

    i will never understand what the logic behind a 200 game season and a one and done wildcard game is.

    But i will watch a few minutes and i usually cant stand baseball.

    Just don't like it plays through November. This should be done and out by Halloween. Baseball shouldn't be played in November.

    Playing World Series future tickets and the payouts are over 1 month away

    Agreed. First rounds in the NBA are usually
    blowouts.

    NFL is ok but not as good as NHL and MLB.

    I am not a huge baseball fan but you are definitely right LB. Amazing how every single pitch is important.

    Not only is every pitch important but it effects the next one in regards to pitch selection, defensive positioning, the running game, and offensive strategy/approach. Also everyone (coaches,players, and fans) has a chance to absorb what happened and think about the next thing that follows makes it a must watch for me. I know a lot of people are bored by baseball but is there any better sport to think along with the players and coaches? Add the intensity of the playoffs and I can't get enough of it.

    Absolutely.

    Love basketball, but half the games in the playoffs are blowouts. Even in a 7 game series theres usually 3 blowouts.

    Baseball usually awesome but it's hard to act like there is much drama when 2 series were sweeps and the other two will most likely be over in 4. Hopefully the next round there will be some actual drama
