The World Series shifted cross country from Los Angeles to the Bronx. The Dodgers behind the strong pitching of Walker Buehler won the game 4-2. For the third consecutive game Freddie Freeman homered for the Dodgers.
The boredom factor of the game is 28. This is a statistic I've developed that counts the times a batter fails to put the ball into play during an at bat. This game there were18 strikeouts, 12 walks and one hit batsman.
The game as you saw in the headline for this post lasted a whopping three hours and 25 minutes. The main reason for this is both managers over used their bullpens. The Yankees used nine pitchers and the Dodgers employed 8 pitchers. The TV talking heads tried to tell the public this was exciting baseball. But, I doubt many people who watched it agree with that assessment.
