What a shame. Players go out and play their hearts out. Fans pay ludicrous amounts of money for seats. And the world series winds up with people having to wonder who really would have won if only MLB didn't have its head up its ass with the kind of bats they buy.
The players fought a tough series. Congratulations to them. But MLB itself should be condemned for ruining this world series by having it be decided on a broken bat "hit".
If what became the series winning RBI had not been a broken bat, the swing would most likely have been a routine flyout, and the game would have been tied 2-2, going into extra innings.
I'm disgusted that MLB has allowed the use of these piece of shit bats that break just about every inning. I was always wondering when this problem would surface to fuck up a really important game (and indeed a whole world series). I remember watching baseball games years ago, and not seeing a broken bat for months. What the hell are these bats made of nowadays, balsa wood ?
Somebody need to get a handle on this. MLB is a train wreck bad enough already, with teams like the Tampa Bay Rays, gone to hell with an owner who won't support his team, along with drug scandals, etc.
