WS Game 7 Thread SF@KC

[TeemuTrout]

Tonight is the last game of the baseball season! Who you got winning it all?

 

Starting pitchers for tonight are Jeremy Guthrie (KC) and Tim Hudson (SF).

I got San Francisco in 7.

[DoubleOffTheWall]

I think Posey wakes up from his slumber and has a huge game, cementing him as the next jeter

[T.G.]

I just hope it's an epic game. Is that too much to ask for?  I'm pulling for the Royals... but... the more talk about how hard it is for a visiting team to win game 7 makes me think the Giants will win because that's how that crap works...

 

Go Royals.

[Angel Dog and Beer]

Pulling for the Giants, but I really don't care who wins.  I just want to see a close, back-and-forth nail biter.  And someone needs to come up with a big hit in the 9th to play the hero.

 

And I want to hear Buck call the game winner so we can hear it over and over and over for years to come.

That crap didn't work in 2002

Game seven is baseball's version of the 'Super Bowl'. One game decides the Champions.

I'm guessing will see Bum-gamer tonite. I'll be rooting for the AL!

The Royals hace a better story so I'm going for them

Jerk!

Last team to win a WS game 7 on the road after losing WS game 6 on the road was the 1975 Big Red Machine after Fisk took it to game 7.

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

Another easy win for the Royals.

[Brandon]

Royals bats in that environment.

 

I think the fans stood for the first three innings yesterday before sitting.

[Hollyw00d]

I hope its a close game

[Redondo]

For all the marbles. Great to see this series go to game 7

 

Would like to see KC win it all

[Tank]

pulling for the royals to win it all tonight.

My point is that if so much of the focus is on how the home team wins game 7 so often - the opposite will happen. I don't remember if that was the focus in 2002 - but for this series it comes up constantly.

Bumgarner will be available in the pen. Last game so anything goes.

[Brandon]

I can't believe the morons like Skip Bayless saying the Giants should start Bumgarner like he has a robot arm.

 

Bruce Bouchy's press conference yesterday on the topic was spot on.

I suppose I am rooting for KC. Gotta go with the Pre-Post Season underdog. I also like seeing the home team win.

[halobob]

I'm still waiting to see the AL representative get embarrassed 

 

Sticking with my Giants in 7 prediction.  

[Brandon]

Bill Simmons said he put money on the Royals before the WC at 18/1

 

Not sure that is the play you drop serious coin on, but he will get some lunch money out of it if the Royals win.

[T.G.]

I would love to see the unexpected decide this game... like Billy Butler stealing home in the bottom of the 9th or Guthrie throwing a no-hitter...

 

I love the unpredictability of baseball and I'm hoping tonight the game will be just that.

[Angelsfirst]

I'm pulling for the Giants but I think the Royals will come away with it. I'm not sure what the percentage is the home team wins game 7, I think it's something like 70 or 80%, if not more.

It's up there, but I remember after game 1 the Giants % of winning were equally up there.
