This game is an absolute joke. Feels like it was rigged to appease the fans. 20 runs in the first 3 1/2 innings! Lame.

27 runs after 7 innings!

As a Yankees fan I have been enjoying it.

As a baseball fan it is not the type games I want to see. 4 hours in and still have 2+ more innings to go.

Yanks better not blow it!

I certainly want the Sox to win but this is just silly. Do you think this was staged to stir some interest in the UK? 

Not really. You get games where one team puts up 15+ runs, this game both teams are on the way to that. For it to be staged the HP Ump would have to be shrinking the strike zone. This game has had the batters yelling about pitches, but the pitchers have been happy with the calls for the most part.

It could also be the stadium they are playing in. Chavis droped that foul ball in the fiirst inning and there have been a few fly balls that the OFers have had issues with.

I am a National League fan. Very little interest in either team. Based on the final score I am glad I had no interest in watching. Looks like a score from a slo pitch game.

I felt the same way. I keep thinking it's a wrestling match, All hipe and over the top. not a baseball game and some of that pitching looked like it was batting practice.

Super juicded balls were sent to London in place of the normal juiced balls.   What a joke.   A travesty.   Wind them tighter and it be like hitting a golf ball.       They started using Major League balls in the minors this year and HRs have sky rocketed.    It's like watching men's slo-pitch softball.
