I JUST FOUND A WEB SITE listing the World Series winners and losers. Interestingly, four teams have perfect records in the Series: the Florida Marlins and Toronto Blue Jays are both 2-0, and the Angels and Arizona Diamondbacks are both 1-0.
The Giants, who won Game 1 of the current Series, haven't won the world's championship since 1954, when they were still in New York. The Texas Rangers are making their first Series appearance.

No unbeatens
 |
| MEMBERS OF THE '72 DOLPHINS |
Not this year. The Indianapolis Colts conveniently beat the Kansas City Chiefs today, ending any worry that a team would match the '72 Dolphins. Now, fans just have to worry when the Dolphins will win again.

Staying or not staying on deck
I never realized there was so much to know about the on-deck circle until I read this story in the N.Y. Times. Some major leaguers stay in the on-deck circle, and others stray far from it.
I like the idea used by little leaguers; have the guy in the on-deck circle face the batter's back. Less chance of getting hurt.
I do wonder, though, how much advantage a hitter can get by moving closer to the catcher. If it weren't an advantage, they wouldn't do it.
