Journal Journal: World Series writeup to end all! 6
Which team has the best pitching?
On paper, it's definitely the Red Sox. But championships are not won on paper. Josh Beckett, Curt Schilling, Daisuke Matsuzaka and Jonathan Papelbon are all big names that jump out off the page. But the Rockies' Jeff Francis, Manny Corpas and Co. have had the best ERA in baseball over the second half of the season (3.86) and in the playoffs (2.08). And I read those two statistics online, and not on paper, so I am comfortable saying Colorado has the best pitching. Now, if I print that Internet article out onto paper
And lastly, the funny finale:
As we all know, it's not who plays the best that wins sports titles, it's who The Creator picks to win in between helping poor people and sending messages to nonbelievers via hurricanes and wildfires. But who that will be in this year's World Series is far from clear. On the one hand -- God's right hand, to be exact -- you have Curt Schilling. Normally that would be enough to wrap it up. But on the other hand, we have the Colorado Rockies, who are so religious they will go into Boston tonight wondering WWJD and WWJDH. (That's Who Would Jesus DH, by the way. My guess is Ryan Spilborghs.) Anyway, this one is too close to call. In fact, there's really only one way I can see it ending. Seventh game
