PrintHow long does this game have to go before it's declared a tie, with a decisive game seven of the world series to be played in Kaufmann Stadium/PNC Park? Will Ludwick throw the 17th inning?
3-3, 15th inning, Scott Kazmir on the mound.

Not in the least bit
IMO if you want homefield advantage determined by something during the season, give it to the league with the best overall winning percentage in IL play.
I also don’t think a Wild Card team should EVER get home field advantage over a team that won its division.

Corey Hart didn't run through that ball very well, also a pretty weak throw

Agreed
He caught the ball well over his head and had no moment or resemblance of a crow hop on that throw home. Edmonds does it perfectly.
and ludwick. And ankiel.
And (gasp0 schumaker.
Any of the 3 make that throw on less than 2 hops + off the line. Even 2 hops would have been ok if hart had put it to the left of the C…

No big deal.
And being as the Cards are about as good on the road as they are at home, I don’t think home field advantage will matter too much when we play in the Series.

“The team with homefield advantage has won the last five World Series Titles”
... Was ‘06 a mirage?

You know...
When the camera panned over to Selig, in all his flop sweat-ridden glory, I was hoping for a tie.
now that I think about it
I can’t remember what he was wearing. One assumes that he went for the backwards pants look:
gets the V-8 commercial seal of approval as well
that poor woman with the sheet of paper is like “dude!”
Then again, her lucky green pendant is leaning a bit much to the right. There’s an obvious animal attraction there, though it’s pointed at his apparent peg leg rather than his diaper.

Looks like the Red Sox will have home field yet again in the WS
which really pisses me off….that’s why Terry Francona was so happy…he didn’t care about how many more pitches Kazmir had to pitch, he knew his team would get home field for their 3rd trip to the WS in 4 years. Just sickening.
They aren't going to the World Series
people vastly over look Tampa and Anaheim. Both are superior teams to Boston.
by Hardcore Legend on Jul 16, 2008 3:42 AM EDT up reply actions
I agree HL with the Angels
but Tampa might be a stretch. But look at Boston’s home record. Look at how the Indians choked when they had to play at Fenway last year in the playoffs. The Angles will choke playing in Boston again just like last year in the first round. If the Red Sox has home field throughout the AL playoffs I would bet the farm that they will go to the WS. Teams just seem to get intimidated when they go in to play at Fenway…...I hate it..but it’s the way it’s been the past 5 years.
the TB-BOS split this year is crazy
so far it’s been the home team winning every game (6-6).
With 3 away and 3 home remaining ;)
"If thats bad luck, lets DFA our luck away." -DriverZN
Boston getting home field for anything
is a HUGE advantage for them. Except for our Cards this year just about every team goes into Fenway looking like the local beer league team going against a MLB team. I don’t know if it’s the green monster or what…. but something psyches out teams when they play there. For a good example watch the 2007 ALCS and the horrible choke job the Indians did when they went in there up 3-2 in the series.
This year Boston is 36-11 at Fenway…21-29 on the road….home field is HUGE for them.
I agree
when we went into boston in 2004 our team looked timid and awestruck and just in awe or something. It was the damnedest thing, its like we were intimidated
