A Minor World Series Note

Mike of Mike’s Baseball Rants, who doesn’t think too highly of Joe Morgan as a baseball pundit, might appreciate this: I was driving last night when the game started, and heard the first two innings on the radio. Very early on, Joe Morgan (the color-commentator on the official radio broadcast) says something like, “The Marlins will benefit defensively as the night goes on and the field dries out.” I thought that odd enough to begin with, since the game was at night and presumably there wouldn’t be a whole lot of evaporation going on.

But then, after I was home for a while and checked in on the game in the sixth inning, it was raining. So much for Joe’s prediction.

(I actually like Joe Morgan a lot, but Mike’s commentaries on him are usually very funny.)
