Hey Ted... what are the Halloween colors???
I'm for the Giants, I like their old tradition, and I have a bit of a National League bias.
I've mentioned it here before, but I'm reminded of going to a Cubs - Cards game in the mid-80s, Cubs won in 11 innnings, I think it was 12-11. Sandburg had a great multiple HR game, McGee had a good game, it was a Saturday game of the week... Anyway, I had a 'standing room only' ticket, and stood for several innings beside a man who'd have been in his late 60s, he was quietly and calmly explaining details of the game to a grandson of about age 12. We struck up a conversation that lasted several innings, with silence scattered throughout. Eventually, I asked him what his favorite team was. He didn't look at me as he responded, he just gazed out across the field as he said, "The Giants, the New York Giants." The man had not yet forgiven the move to the west coast. I hope he's watching this series.
