The stage was set: two deserving teams from deserving cities, meeting at this most worthy park, denied of World Series glory for 29 years.
If Tuesday’s game was any indication, it’ll be 30.
Game One never really found the drama and intrigue found in nearly every other playoff game this year, and America’s new darlings, the Kansas City Royals, lost for the first time in weeks. Yup, those were the Royals I grew up with.
Kudos, though, for Fox’s coverage of the game. Even a bad game will sound good when called by Joe Buck, Harold Reynolds, and Tom Verducci. Yeah, those guys cane together, and unlike most modern broadcasts, the graphics weren’t overdone.
See y’all for Game Two!
