The Cleveland Indians

Zack Greinke, a pitcher on the Los Angeles Dodgers, is considered by many analysts as the most dominating pitcher in baseball.

The Texas Rangers (73-65) came into this game just one game back of the Houston Astros in the AL West, and they looked dominant in the series so far against the Seattle Mariners (67-73). The Rangers had won two in a row and had to feel good about their chances tonight, but laid an absolute goose egg in a 6-0 defeat to the putrid Seattle Mariners. Martin Perez (2-5, 5.43 ERA) took the loss for the Rangers and Vidal Nuño (1-2, 3.25 ERA) took the win for the Mariners.

After that second Philly loss, the Cubs were 84-60 and the Mets had pulled ahead at 85-57. The Mets would not look back. The Cubs' eight-game losing streak finally ended the next day in St. Louis, but the Mets were in the midst of a ten-game winning streak, and the Cubs, wilting from team fatigue, generally deteriorated in all phases of the game. The Mets would go on to win the World Series. The Cubs, despite a respectable 92-70 record, would be remembered for having lost a remarkable 17½ games in the standings to the Mets in the last quarter of the season.

Led by Musial's hot bat, the loose, inexperienced Cardinals surprised everyone by winning 106 games, including 43 of their last 52, to claim the National League pennant. Then St. Louis beat the favored Yankees in the World Series, and Musial was on a world championship team in his first full season.

Just having LeBron James – the biggest name and superstar in the NBA – come back to Cleveland after leaving for Miami four years ago was a big boost, not just emotionally but also economically for the city. But the deeper the Cavs’ run in the postseason went, the better

Wait…didn’t I face this guy before? That’s right. In the beginning of the season, I struck out against him when he threw 3 straight fastballs. He already threw 2 fastballs. Would he do the same? I hope so, because it’s the only chance I

In just their second season in Los Angeles, the dodgers won their second world series pennant beating the white soxin six games in 1959. Lead by the domination of Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale, the dodgers captured three national leauge  pennants in the 60's, and captured two more world series championships, sweeping the Yankees and barley beating the Twins in seven games. The dodgers won four more national leauge pennants in  1966,1974, 1977, and 1978. but losing every world series appearence. They went on to win a world series in 1981 thanks to pitching sensation fernando valenzuela. The early 1980's were affectionatly dubbed as "fernandomania." In 1988, another pitching star, Oral Hershiser, again lead them to another world series pennant, helped by one of the most historical home runs of all time, by their INJURED star Kirk Gibson who had hurt Both of his legs. That would be his only playing time in the series.

Game 1 of the series was a complete success as fans were treated to the best baseball from both leagues. The Pirates played well on both sides of the ball as Deacon Phillippe pitched a six hit game and right fielder Jimmy Sebring hit the first home run ever in World Series history. He drove in four runs for a 7-3 victory. Game 2 was not bad either as Boston reflected Pittsburgh's previous performance. They tied the series up when Bill Dinneen threw a three-hit game and Patsy Dougherty hammered two homers in a 3-0 win. Pittsburgh's pitching staff, full of illness and injuries, forced the Pirates to start

The major league World Series has come. The games that KC Royals, Lopez’s team, have won are 3 games. The opponent team, San Francisco, have won one. One more win and the Royals are the champs… again.

The worry I had earlier began to slowly dissipate as we headed onward to the next inning. It’s a shame that the worry was only gone for a total of 18 pitches before they had gotten three scores and were ahead of us. When we finally got inside the dugout for our turn to bat, we were pumped to get back ahead of them as fast as possible. We were able to get one run before we reached our three outs and were thrust back onto the field with a tying score. They took two runs from us again causing me to get worried again. They just went ahead of us by two points, and I felt that all was lost. We were finally able to get the last out and we headed inside to the dugout. We were only able to get one run back like last time and I felt that we would lose and then we would be unable to go to the World Series, which is something I had wanted to achieve for sometime. But we were struck out and we went back out onto the field.
