Will Twins Strike Quickly for Pitching? →

It’s Officially the Baseball Off Season.

Oct29th
2012
Written by CapitalBabs

I know it seems quick but the post season is OVER. Yep, the San Francisco Giants completed the sweep of the Detroit Tigers to win the 2012 World Series.

 

Of course, they did take a LITTLE more than the minimum amount of possible time because it took them 10 innings – nothing like a little bonus baseball.

In addition, Pablo Sandoval has been voted the World Series MVP! Congrats Panda!

Congratulations to the Giants and we hope to have that experience again sometime soon here in Minnesota.

And as ERolf pointed out to me this morning, 106 days until Pitchers & Catchers!

    That makes me think of the MLB Channel’s holiday logo last year: Off Season’s Greetings.

    Hey, there’s still the MLB Channel. Don’t be sad.

    It’s always summer somewhere. There’s Arizona Fall League, winter leagues, hot stove, post-season awards, Hall of Fame balloting, and the World Baseball Classic.

    Or virtual summer. There’s the Internet (thanks, Knuckleballs!), movies (just watched Moneyball last night for the first time, thanks Detroit Tigers), and books (for me now Catcher: How the Man Behind the Plate Became an American Folk Hero, by Peter Morris).
