And we go to the 10th... the 11th... the 12th... all the way to the 14th. It was an endurance test to watch it all. I was getting woozy and delirious watching it.I thought the game was going to be decided on a Bill Buckner-esque boot from Eric Hosmer. Then the guy who nearly tied Game 7 against the Giants last year tied it up in the 9th this year (Alex Gordon).
At one point in this game, there were technical difficulties from FOX Sports. We got the MLB international broadcast with Matt Vasgersian and John Smoltz, which made me very happy. That is until they moved Joe Buck and crew into their digs.
It got to the point that Chris Young and Bartolo Colon were in the game at the same time.
All the while, Twitter was the place to be and here are some of my highlights from the night. And this was just Game 1!
The FOX truck lost power during the broadcast. Dallas, did you have something to do with this?

They just brought Buck and crew into Vasgersian's box? Hold your ground, Matt! #FOX #WorldSeries

Here is Bartolo celebrating NBA Opening Night. Well, not really but it's impressive.

Can you imagine this? I lost it on this one.
In radar-gun world, it's great that Young and Colon - who would look like the number 10 if they stood next to each other - can still thrive
