 DM> This is the matchup that MLB was hoping for, I'm sure.

Oh yes.  The merchandise and TV revenue is going to be massive.

 DM> Are you going to be watching? Who are you rooting for?

I'll be watching, as I always do.  The second question is difficult for 
me, and easy at the same time...

I'm a lifelong Red Sox fan, so I *cannot* root for the Yankees.  That's 
the easy part, and is ironclad.

I'm generally not a National League team fan.  Also, the Dodgers are the 
NL equivalent of the Skanks^H^H^H^H^H^H Yankees, as in the way they 
*ahem* purchase what they need to win.  As in buying a Pennant.  So that 
bothers me some.

But... I think Ohtani is a once-in-a-lifetime quality of a ballplayer, 
and I can't help but like him.  I'm happy to be able to watch him some 
more.

So... I'll be pulling for the Dodgers, begrudgingly.  I hope they sweep 
it in 4 games, but I don't expect that to happen.  I'll say Dodgers in 
six.

 DM> The Dodgers were my first favorite MLB team (when I was like 7 years

ACK.  Not sure why the Angels didn't/haven't done better.

 DM> Looking forward to Friday,

Me too, for several reasons!



.... I was wondering why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me.
