World Series 2010

The fifth (and final) game of the 2010 World Series has produced a champion. Although I was not rooting for them, the San Francisco Giants have won the World Series Championship. My condolences to the Texas Rangers - I and other Boston Red Sox fans were supporting you in your first appearance in a World Series. The Boston Red Sox maintain their current position of being the only two-time World Series Champions in the 21st century. The result of the World Series is as follows:

Wednesday 27 October 2010-SF Giants 11, Texas Rangers 7
Thursday 28 October 2010-SF Giants 9, Texas Rangers 0
Saturday 30 October 2010-Texas Rangers 4, SF Giants 2
Sunday 31 October 2010-SF Giants 4, Texas Rangers 0
Monday 1 November 2010-SF Giants 3, Texas Rangers 1

San Francisco beat Texas four game to one out of the seven game series. The Giants scored a total of twenty-nine runs over the five games; while the Rangers scored a total of twelve. The total number of runs scored in the series was forty-one and the Giants had 70.73% of those runs, while the Rangers had 29.27%.

2009 World Series Championship Ends Today

The sixth (and final) game of the 2009 World Series has produced a champion. It is my non-pleasure to write that the New York Yankees have won the WS championship. And the Philadelphia Phillies do not repeat as World Series champions. My utmost condolences to the Phillies and their fans - Boston was on your side. Although the result was not the one for which I (and others) had been rooting, the Boston Red Sox do maintain their current position of being the only two-time World Series champions in the 21st century. May the Red Sox uniqueness continue and only improve with a third Boston WS championship - perhaps in 2010, just to finish off the first decade with a winning tone. As for the New York Yankees - see you on Monday 5 April 2010 and the fun can begin again!
