The were robbed of so many winning opportunities by so improbably little that the decisive event was the compromised structural integrity of a bat.

They forced the to need all 7 games, forced them to need 11 extra innings on top of that, outscored them 34 runs to 26, out-batted them 75 hits to 53, out-fielded them 0 errors to 3, & exposed their lack of depth beyond their very few star players.

The worse of the two teams was crowned champions.

I've been reminded (and ran out of space to say had I remembered) that the NL's Yankees, a mediocre team full of fantastically expensive players, played a fantastically talented team full of injured players and still just barely won 3 of the 7 games on pure luck alone.

@arielmt It took a team full of tax dodging super imports to beat a team of injuries, and for one game, the AAA-league roster, to win the World Series in 8.2 games. And their wins were mostly flukes.

The Dodgers did not play better than the Blue Jays.
