It went 18 innings.
It was 6 hours and 39 minutes long.
Everyone go to bed.

*Freeman used to play for the Braves.*
Ohtani used to play for the Angels.
Betts used to play for the Red Sox.
Fans of both of those franchises must be shaking their heads in total disgust.

The same pomos after each half inning for SCAM BUSTERS and for FEAR FACTOR and for WAKE UP BARSTOOL have convinced me all three programs sound like terrible television.
Previously mentioned pineapple and other sliced fruits for the players.

John Smoltz declared his love of pineapple in the 15th inning.

Compelling action.
Very entertaining.
Sensational playoff baseball.
It's just a shame that it's happening very late on a Monday night when much of America is already in bed.

"Toronto Rangers" !!!
That being said, this is NOT the type of content @nba.com officials and their broadcast partners want to be discussing during the opening week of the regular season.

an FBI official says the alleged NBA gambling ring involves the "Toronto Rangers" (not a real team), which doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the quality of their investigation
Oh, I hear you on that.
You can say the same about the concept of two players fighting during an NHL game.
That happens very rarely in NFL and NBA and MLB games.
Reminds me of Mario Lemieux's infamous quote from the early 1990s calling the National Hockey League a "garage league."
It's not just hockey analysts.

Recent quote from Lindy Ruff courtesy of @buffalonews.com :

“Seriously, I love the guy,” Ruff said. “If you could have him on your team, you’d want him on your team.”
Since 1985 there have been four times in which one @mlb.com World Series team swept their LCS series while the other team went seven games:

1988: OAK swept BOS/LA beat NYM in 7

2006: DET swept OAK/STL beat NYM in 7

2007: COL swept ARI / BOS beat CLE in 7

2012: DET swept NYY / SF beat STL in 7
