KC is a well balanced team with no real weaknesses. They do everything well if not spectacularly. And they have the "we will find a way to win this" kind of mentality all the way to the last out.
This will be interesting.

clearly. Unlike the NLCS, where the Mets-Cubs regular season head to head record gave us a good insight into the series.

Re: IGT - WORLD SERIES GAME 1 - Mets at Royals - Tue, 10/27/

Whereas the Mets pitchers faced an almost identical Cubs line-up (with the exception of Russell), the Cubs pitchers faced a radically different team in the NLCS. This gave the Mets a very distinct advantage in the playoffs. I'm sure the Mets learnt plenty from getting trounced by the Cubs during the regular season.

It just occurred to me that the results of this WS will also determine whether the Mets' overall WS record -- currently sitting at 12 games won/12 games lost -- will sit above or below the equator going forward.

Not too bad, especially if it really does end before 8 p.m. (The thing I'd really hate to see happen is a lengthy rain delay that causes the game to start after 10 p.m.)

From MLB.COM:

Major League Baseball announced its World Series umpiring crew Monday, led by crew chief Jeff Kellogg, who boasts more than 22 years of experience and will be umpiring his fifth Fall Classic.
Ted Barrett and Jeff Nelson, also regular season crew chiefs, were named as part of Kellogg's team, as were Eric Cooper, Jerry Meals, Jim Reynolds and Hunter Wendelstedt.


Yes, that's one more than traditionally has been needed for a post season game (6) because the extra will serve as replay ump, then be rotated with the on-field crew.

at least ask some bs about the crowd noise, or the atmosphere, or how it'll ramp up from the LCS. If you take the lazy 'gimme quote' route, that's how you get canned cliche answers that we're sick of reading about.

GAME: New York Mets (97-74) at Kansas City Royals (102-71)
DATE/TIME: Tuesday, October 27 - 8:00 PM EST
WHERE: Kauffman Stadium, Kansas City, Missouri
LINE: N/A TOTAL: N/A
Playoff Series: World Series; Series Tied 0-0
Covers Media Group, Ltd.

The Kansas City Royals made it to the seventh game of the World Series last season and enter the 2015 edition planning to come out on top. The Royals will get some stiff competition when Daniel Murphy, Matt Harvey and the New York Mets visit for Game 1 on Tuesday.

The New York pitching staff used its power stuff to dominate the Chicago Cubs in a four-game sweep of the National League Championship Series, surrendering a total of eight runs in the four games, while Murphy ran his record streak to six straight postseason games with a home run in the clincher. The Mets will have to hope that momentum carries over after having five full days off between rounds. The Royals needed six games to dispatch the Toronto Blue Jays and have a lineup ready for New York’s staff after posting the fewest strikeouts in the majors during the regular season. “We play in a big park, which is not conducive to power,” Kansas City manager Ned Yost told reporters. “We don't swing for the fences. We have power, we can hit homers, but for the most part we just try to stay short and quick and drive the gaps, and our guys do a good job with that.”

TV: 8:07 p.m. ET, FOX

PITCHING MATCHUP: Mets RH Matt Harvey (2-0, 2.84 ERA) vs. Royals RH Edinson Volquez (1-2, 4.32)

Harvey will take the ball on nine days’ rest after striking out nine and allowing two runs on four hits and a pair of walks over 7 2/3 innings to win Game 1 of the NLCS. The 26-year-old endured plenty of questions about his workload down the stretch but has so far only been needed for 12 2/3 innings in the postseason. Harvey is making his first career start against Kansas City and is 3-1 with a 0.93 ERA in eight career interleague outings.

Volquez picked up his first career postseason win in five starts when he held the Blue Jays scoreless over six innings in Game 1 of the ALCS. The Dominican Republic native was ripped for five runs in as many innings in Game 5 but has seen his velocity tick up in the postseason and will be on regular rest for Game 1. Volquez is 2-5 with a 5.70 ERA in nine career starts against New York and has issued 12 walks in 16 2/3 innings during the postseason.

WALK-OFFS:
1. Mets OF Yoenis Cespedes (shoulder) was removed from Game 4 of the NLCS but is expected to be ready for Tuesday.
2. Royals SS Alcides Escobar has hit safely in 10 straight games and was named ALCS MVP.
3. New York last won a World Series crown in 1986 and Kansas City's last title was in 1985.

In 1986, I had committed to go to a sorority formal previous to Mets getting to the World Series. It just so happened that the formal fell on the same night as Game 1. I missed the whole game.

In 2000, I had to go to my future brother-in-law's bachelor party on the evening of Game 1. We had dinner in a fancy restaurant. No TVs. Later on, while there were more TVs and more interest in watching the game at that affair, it was still not an optimal viewing situation and I missed the meat of the game.

Tonight - I will be parked in front of my TV from the first pitch.

In 1986, I took my then-fiance out, wined her, dined her, and took her to a nice hotel - all to show that she meant more to me than the Mets. I missed the entire game.

In 2000, We watched the game together at home.

We all know what happened in both instances.

Don't remember Game 1 of 86.

Game 1 of 2000 was one of the best and worst experiences of my life. I was sick all day with worry, knowing that a good start was critical, only to get one and see them flush it all away on the Timo/Zeile play, which I watched while standing on a bar stool at the Bull Moose on 44th street & 8th. I maintain if Timo hustles, we're still batting in that inning NOW.

The Mets have never won a World Series Game 1.


And they've scored a total of just 5 runs in 4 games over 39 innings.

Those game 1's have served as a kind of microcosm history of the franchise: the pitching has generally been good (not surprisingly since you often get to start your ace) but the hitting hasn't supported them.
The final scores have been: 1-4, 1-2, 0-1, 3-4 (12)

sat behind us that night. They showed up in suits and were freezing.
KB at one point gave Kerry some jacket. We didn't know who they

For the Mets, 6 regulars had an .800+ OPS. Their #7 is Daniel Fucking Murphy.

That Fox panel has a guy who will finish with 700 homers and a guy with 4,000 hits -- and the only guy who will get a sniff of the Hall on there is Frank Thomas.

We've been listening to the radio since the 9th. These guys are unlistenable. There isn't even the benefit of Ron Darling.

The Moustakas defensive gem is the play of the game. Saves a run, stops a rally, makes it so that Mets have only a one-run lead to defend in the 9th.

So much for "catching the ball."


I had to go back and look at what you guyz thought. That was just inexcusable. Conforto played it right, he looked at Cespedes and pulled off. Yoenis dhould not have looked at Conforto. It was his ball. What do I call that baseball card? The Ball On The Thigh Play? HE KICKS IT! I was just stunned.But one pitch, one run, no biggy. But jeeze, with these Mets, nothing's easy and nothing in the postseason is ever ordinary.

And we came back and took a lead and allAdat and,...ugh. Familia. This would have been such an important slam. And kaBOOM!

I was kinda like a zombie from then until the end. Because of fuckin Chris Young, who holds US in check? Our Chris Young. Grrrrrrr.

Home plate ump Welke sucks.

What I saw from was Niese was important. I have more confidence in him and he could step up. Didn't want or expect TC going with the 4 out save this early in the series. I spoke about with my brother during pregame and he agreed. What is up with Robles? Is he there?

Anyways, I still thought Familia would do it until the ball flew off Gordon's bat. Ugh, that sinking feeling in your stomach. Luckily I had hot popcorn to fill it with.
But that sucked. Young puts us in chains and they score on a freakin sac. GREAT throw by Grandy. Great, kinda extraordinary game. Close like they said it would be.

Well, when we're at our best we always lose the first one and then sweep 4.

But that opening...with the inside the park homer...I have never seen anything like that to start a series. I think they said it happened last in 1903. More historical stuff. For history to remain of it's proper path we must sweep the next four! LETS GO METS!

Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Oct 28 2015 05:23 AM

Terry said that Conforto backed off of the ball at the last instant thinking that Cespedes called him off of the play. But no one asked Terry whether or not Cespedes actually did call for the ball.

It's driving me nuts that the play was even scored as a hit in the first place and we'll have to hear the phrase "inside the park HR" for that play for the rest of our lives.. That ball's an out over 99% of the time. It's that dumb baseball convention where if the official scorer can't determine which player to charge with an error, then no error is charged at all no matter how obvious it is than an error was committed.

This is how I feel. If Jeurys holds on to close out game 1 he would have almost acquired the a mythical status that would have had the Royals petrified to approach the electric fence surrounding his swimming pool.

Re: IGT - WORLD SERIES GAME 1 - Mets at Royals - Tue, 10/27/

gah - for all you lot complaining about being tired ye can go somewhere else. the good news is that this week has me only 4 hours ahead of ye (our clocks changed last week) the bad news is the games start at 8pm eastern rather the 7pm. If they started at 7 i'd be able to cope a bit better. So having stayed awake by working the game came on at about ten minutes past midnight. Joe Buck and the gang are horrendous.
Stayed up till the 7th inning. You can only imagine how taxing delays like the fox one are at 2 am.
Watched 8th and 9th in bed. Turned it off after end of 9th, I kinda knew we were done for and fell asleep with the radio in the 10th/11th. So that was probably 3.45 am ish.
Smaller of the children was up at 6.50 am, everyone in the house up by 7.15. I can't do this tonight, so I'm planning on sleeping before the f'ing thing starts and waking up to speed watch it from about 6 - 7.45


Anyway, sorta had a bad feeling about Familia, it's a pity that the quick pitch was what got him as it's been a good weapon so far.
Crazy shit that went on with poor Edson Volquez and his father. Not sure how the hell in the world you'd cope with coming off the field to be told that.

For what it's worth, I'm definitely on board with starting Lagares and DH'ing Conforto/Cespedes (only Cespedes if you're worried about the shoulder)
Juan's been hitting well since August and I just don't see Cuddyer/Johnson bringing as much to the party.
