All games Eastern. Game one probables are Cliff Lee (3-0, 0.75 ERA) and Tim Lincecum (2-1, 1.93 ERA).
No predictions from me, I just hope it goes seven games. Home field advantage for the Giants because the (huh?!) National League (what?!) won the All-Star game (they did?!). Love it/hate it, that's the rule. | Promote this thread! |           | Ryan72182

And Fox thought making a 6:30 game was a concession to the "day game" crowd.

Which they promptly screwed up, by making the earliest start on a Saturday, the one night of the week where you can justify the later start time.

Either way, Molina is guaranteed his second ring.
I'll go Rangers in 6 as Wilson eventually is going to give up a big hit in a big spot.
The 'We will post pictures of people wearing Halloween costumes' during Game 3 on Saturday is more likely to cause me to flip to college football than watch the baseball game.

I'm going to go with Texas in 7. I haven't rooted for a baseball player in a long time as much as I've rooted for Hamilton. Yes, I say that and still think that it will go the distance.

Giants in 5. (I'll take 6 if necessary.)
As to start times, remember that the 7:30 start Eastern Time is a 4:30 start Pacific. Kids are barely home from school, & the adults have to weasel their way out of work early. B'sides, nobody on the east coast even watches unless the Yankees are playing, right? Much less giving a shit about Texas & San Fran Cisco. :-) | It's False

Nicely done, boys! That was fun! And MVP to Renteria -- very nice. Woo-hoo!
As Lincecum takes the trophy, interviewer asks, "How does that look?" "Uhm, shiny." They all seem to be afraid to hang onto the trophy -- it really isn't quite as sturdy as the Stanly Cup. Still, if you break it, you don't have to pay for it!! | It's False

Having said that, at least this'll spice up the Dodgers/Giants rivalry just a bit.
