Tonight is the first game of the World Series between the Houston Astros and the Philadelphia Phillies. If you are not excited about this, join the club. All the teams I wanted to reach the series lost, which is the main reason I am never taking up sports betting, even if the TV ads claim you can't lose. I was especially disappointed that my South Side heros, the Chicago White Sox, who were predicted to make the playoffs, were uniformly mediocre all season, finishing with an 81-81 record. I knew all hope was lost when they struggled to gain a split during a two game series against the Colorado Rockies, who were, as predicted, just horrible. I took the above photograph at one of those games that I attended at Coors Field with my friend Mark, who was able to snag infield seats so that we could see the carnage up close. On the bright side, I don't care who wins the World Series this year, and so it will be a stress free end to the baseball season.
