With the World Series coming up very, very soon, I'm starting to regain some interest in the teams left.
But that's because -- with the exception of Boston -- the teams still in contention were absolute shockers, the Colorado Rockies in the NL and the Cleveland Indians in the AL.
I was really pulling for this to be a Cleveland-Colorado series, because they would be such a testament to the thriving nature of the game. If the Rockies end up winning the Fall Classic, that will be the eighth different franchsize to claim the MLB title since 2000, when the Yankees last won it for the third-consecutive year.
But alas, the Boston Red Sox came in and did what they did best as of late, refused to succumb to a 1-3 ALCS deficit. After a 11-2 dismantling of the Tribe, I'm beginning to think the BoSox are hiding all of their offensive power to sneak up on teams late in the series to keep things interesting. Whatever, as long as it's not the Yankees!
