    Is Bochy the first manager to get to the World Series with three different teams?

    Bill McKechnie (Pirates, Cardinals and Reds) and Dick Williams (Red Sox, A’s and Padres) according to MLB dot com.

    But he is the first to need to go through the playoffs to reach the World Series with three clubs.

    Probably the best explanation. ARod would be the best example.

    Easy to believe that the Dbacks wouldn't have made the playoffs if they gave Bumgerner even one more start.

    Also the first World Series where both teams have state names (if we assume the Yankees and Giants rep/repped New York City and not the entire state)

    Really is wild how narrow the line is between making the World Series and being home for the last four weeks.

    Flipped on the World Series for my first dose of playoff baseball this season.

    Looks like the shorter, strictly enforced breaks between innings are out the window for po$tseason …

    Compelling. If you don’t likes this, you don’t like baseball.
