How will game 5 end?
By adamg on Mon, 10/28/2013 - 8:01am
Game 3 ended with that controversial obstruction call against Will Middlebrooks.
Game 4 ended with that unusual pick off of Kolten Wong at first base.
So, naturally, the question is: What bizarre way will game 5 tonight end? What do you think? Overnight, it became a hot topic in Twitter. Some of the answers there:

Game-ending run-scoring GIDP?
Doesn't happen very often, but here's one and here's another.
How tonight's World Series game will end
Koji will get another save while giving up a run in the bottom of the ninth. His line will be: Four batters. Four strikeouts. No hits. No walks. No errors. No hit batters. No contact. One run. (This can actually happen in baseball, but it has never closed out a World Series game, so tonight it is.)
hmm
First guy strikes out and reaches on a passed ball. steals 2nd, steals 3rd, steals home? (or advances on passed balls/wild pitches)
Yep, that is the scenario
Considering how weird it sounds, it is not actually blue-moon uncommon; striking out four batters in a row in one inning has happened 25 times in MLB history: http://www.baseball-almanac.com/feats/feats19.shtml. It has even happened once in a World Series (Orval Overall for the Cubs against the Tigers in 1908), but never to end a game. The incidents that ended Games 3 and 4 these last two nights have never happened (as game-enders, anyway) in World Series history before. Funny game, baseball.
Easy
Calvin (a St. Louis fan) brings his tranmogrifier to the game. He gets David Ortiz to crawl inside (luring him with a rack of ribs) and plans on changing him into a toad. However, Hobbes (a Sox fan, since the Tigers are no longer in it) crosses out 'transmogrifier' on the box and changes it to 'duplicator'! The Sox now have 9 different Big Papis and they win 42 - 39 since he would also have to play all 9 defensive positions.

winning run comes on a balk, hopefully it is not a balk-off win for the Cardinals
Pedroia goes all Wamby on Cardinals' tail feathers...

...when, after a sudden torrential rainstorm the field is flooded with 2 feet of water, Johnny Damon enters the stadium, walks across the water and declares that he really is Jesus and the rapture begins.

Hopefully he'll get booed again.
Might not be BHO at all...
...but SoS John Kerry, perhaps with members of the congressional delegation on board as well. Or even Joltin' Joe Biden. Whoever it is I think he or she will be part of another Boston Strong/Patriot's Day bombing commemoration.
Who cares?

Obviously You DO!
You took the time to comment!

They put in Red "Moonlight" Graham
He stays in the outfield for three outs, and that's enough to end the game.
OK, But...
... can he grow a beard by tonight?

The St Louis Rams footballers
The St Louis Rams footballers are playing up the river tonite, they will kickoff and the ball will carry over to Busch and intercept Orto's high fly homerun bound ball , knocking it foul , and then the footballers will invade the stadium trying to get their now deflated ball , be pissed off , and all hell will break out. The game will be declared a non game , and the World Series will go into November.
( I wonder if ESPN lovely and talented Suzy Kolber left her broadcast at the football dome to go to Busch and watch the World Series )
