Such a beautiful World Series. The only coastal team is from the South Coast.

May have already been covered but I am thinking about flying in for a game ... been a huge Astros fan for years and got to take this opportunity. What is the best way to get a single ticket? Am I better off waiting until very close to game time? Getting it early? Based on previous years what has it been like? I'm planning on just getting SRO to just get in the building
Yep. While the state of Georgia touches the east coast, Atlanta is like 3.5-4 hours away from Savannah, the closest coastal city.BadAggie said:

Make no mistake, the mouse is going to want the Braves to win, but they don't get the same treatment as others on the east coast because they're too far south. Same with Seattle being too far north on the west coast.
I like this map - it's really a good view of why "journalists" take the easy way out and favor the northeast or west coast. Teams are so compact that you'll inevitably either love or hate one of them, driving clicks.
Why does this map have the Triple AAA team from Arlington on it?Buck Compton said:Yep. While the state of Georgia touches the east coast, Atlanta is like 3.5-4 hours away from Savannah, the closest coastal city.BadAggie said:

But they are racist and in a racist state, so it will be tough for some to root for themBadAggie said:
The Braves will be the national media pick for this series, the acceptable non-coastal team.

Good GM work there.

I haven't watched any of the NL broadcasts throughout the playoffs, until top 9th tonight. I prefer Fox over TBS x100. I wish MLB channel was carrying the games, because both Fox & esp TBS sucks.
Is there any streaming service w/MLB? I have Fubo & Hulu 7 day trial, neither carry MLB.

Sometimes can work out waiting until just before. I was able to get a decent price on a seat at game 7 WS in 2019. It was a blast until will m Harris gave up a Two run homer on a great pitch. That ball dinged off the foul post about 5 rows in front of me. Never heard a crowd being silenced so quick. Still can't believe we lost that game.
Anyways, keep your eyes peeled. There's a few people in this board that offer up tickets occasionally.

What does this mean?
this entire upcoming series is egg on Manfred's face and then sometjack16 said:
Atlanta didn't get to host the all star game
Well now they will host 3 World Series games.
IMO they should ban Manfred from attending
I don't think Manfred gives two ****s about this. He DOES care about ratings and would have preferred Boston v LA.W said:this entire upcoming series is egg on Manfred's face and then sometjack16 said:

I just remember the ESPN gurus saying that Scherzer and Turner were the greatest trade deadline acquisitions of all-time.Sea Speed said:EastCoastAgNc said:The Dodgers are $65,000,000 over the Competitive Balance Tax threshold to lose in the playoffs.
