 One of the biggest sporting events in the States is the baseball championship called the "World Series," a misnomer because only one non-US team, the Toronto Blue Jays, has ever won it. This year, it will be the Chicago White Sox, making their first appearance since 1959, against the Houston Astros, making their first-ever appearance. Who will win the Series this year? |

I'm hoping that the Astros win it, it should be a good few days. Well at least it isn't the Yankees or Cardinals playing each other.
Still I would had thought the Red Sox would go through easily

Baseball is just overly complicated rounders, surely.

Being a Chicago Bears fan, I'll go for the White Sox (though my favourite baseball team is the New York Mets).
Due to work, I won't be watching it this year. I prefer NFL anyway...

And you don't know what they mean when they say the ball was hit to the side of deep backward square leg!? |

The Chicago White Sox won this year's World Series four games to none over the Houston Astros.
