Fall Classic / 2016 World Series

Plenty of baseball to be played and who will it be, the Cubs or the Dodgers in the National League, the Blue Jays or the Indians in the American League. You just don't accidently show up in the World Series and four very good teams are battling to get in. I would have loved to have been rooting for the Giants, but I am still sure there will be some magical moments, great plays not forgotten and a home run that is epic in the game of baseball we love at the time all the world is watching the "Series." Enjoy.
