One on One - The World Series in the Movies Versus the Real Thing

one-on-one-world-series-560.jpg

The World Series is officially over and unless you're a Yankee fan, it's been a pretty anti-climactic affair. Frankly, in past years, baseball's biggest matchup has been a bit more thrilling. On the other hand, in the movies, the World Series is pretty much always exciting. In A League of Their Own (1992), for example, Geena Davis loses the game, possibly on purpose, by dropping a ball at home plate. In The Scout (1994), Brendan Fraser strikes out all 27 batters on 81 pitches and hits a couple of home runs. Take that Derek Jeter! So which is more thrilling: The World Series on the big screen or in the ballpark?

I think I prefer the Real World Series because it The World Series unlike the movies that is all just made up. You can do whatever you like in the movie. You can even flip a coin to choose who will win the game. In the real World Series you cannot do that. All you can do is hope and pray that your team will be able to win the game. People would also used a large amount of money or if not ask for a hard money loans
