Check out this schedule of games where teams have rallied back from deficits in World Series:
8:00AM: Who's #1? Game Winners: They probably won't show Ill-bay Uckner-bay, but don't game winning plays always make you think of game losing plays?
1:00PM: 1968 World Series Game 1: Tigers at Cardinals: This one was sort of a miracle: the Tigers went 1-2 at home, but somehow were able to win all 4 games played at Busch Memorial. Be scared of miracles.
2:00PM: 1969 World Series Game 5: Orioles at Mets: "Miracle Mets" went 100-62 after going .348 from 1962, their first year in existence, and 1968. The Mets also had a miraculous downfall this year. Lots of miracles floating around this one.
3:00PM: 1971 World Series: Pirates vs. Orioles: not sure which game is on: Orioles, the defending champs (as well as obviously being the favorite), came back from being down 2-0 to win in 7. I think I heard about a World Series that started out like that pretty recently...
6:30PM: 1986 World Series Game 7: Red Sox at Mets: Bringing this game up in conversation with a Red Sox fan is like bringing up the fact that someone got crabs from a hooker: you just don't talk about past losses like that when you're trying to get another championship. So basically, ESPN Classic will have 0 viewers at this time in the Boston metropolitan area and most of New England.
7:00PM: 2001 World Series Game 7: Yankees at Diamondbacks: You guys are starting to look like you are going to start winning like that team you really hate...yeah...so don't try to win too many times, because then you could end up signing Kevin Brown and destroying your abilities.
But don't forget about 63 at 10:00PM. Even though Jordan dropped that number on a Boston sports team, that Boston sports team still won! So, if Matt Holliday manages to score another run while not touch home plate, maybe the Red Sox can still have a chance to win somehow.
