Looks like we are finally going to get a Series that is going the distance. Loser goes home. Game 7.

Has it happened any other times other than the 2019 World Series?

This is a bit dated, but....

"The baseball playoffs are the most challenging to make among the four major pro sports, simply because the fewest number of teams get in—only 10 in total. Hence, there were 70 postseason series and two wild-card games from 2003 through 2012.

Amazingly, the team with home-field advantage won only 37 of those matchups, which translates to 51 percent overall. Basically, home field holds no advantage in baseball."

......but yah to happen in 6, maybe all 7 games pretty odd/flukey.


edit to add:
Football postseason (not counting neutral site SB) is 59% Home Team wins
Hockey postseason 59%
Basketball posteason 67%

I'm hoping it's the only game 7 and the Phillies can finish the Diamondbacks off in 6 so both series end tomorrow.

So, Garcia hits a bomb and like so many other players watch it as they approach first base.
Then he gets plunked in the ribs his next at bat.
Then he hits a grand slam to put game six out of reach.
Got to love the sweet revenge. I only hope Garcia hits 4 home runs in game 7.

Now I ask, is what Garcia did strolling down to first base any different than what Hector Neris did to Julio Rodriguez during the season. It just seems the pitchers now a days can dish it out but can't take it. My dream for game 7 is for Garcia to it a bomb off Neris in the 8th or 9th innings for the game winner........a walk off would have been nice but they are in Houston.

The Phillies can't possibly choke this Series away can they?

I'm all for Game 7's so don't mind if they lose today, but who the hell are they pitching tomorrow if they don't come back in this game?

If it's Diamondbacks Rangers 7 people who don't live in Phoenix or Dallas might watch.
