Which means that they’re doomed, of course ;-)
Go Rangers!
Just for the sake of argument.

I hope they go to game 7 just so the WS can end on a well played game
This has been ugly
Not looking good for game 7

Wow, Harper's ball was CRUSHED
Over the 390 sign in right center, and at least 50-60 feet up a slight hill
I didn't see where it landed the first time, then I said, "Wow."

I feel guilty, after cheering for the Rangers...
I momentarily cheered for Freese since he was on my fantasy team all year. And he tripled.

Love this game
After the crazy comeback in the regular season, down not once but twice to their last strike. It’s the best sport there is.
What a series - Zuckerman is right, you really should be watching this one if for no other reason that than the pure drama
