A World Series Poll: Did you stay up for Game 3 in the World Series

[Tricia]

Game three in the World Series started at around 5 PM PST on Friday October 26th.
It ended in the wee hours of the morning on Saturday October 27th, in 18 innings

I fell asleep sometime in the 14th inning.
Did you stay up?

 

[surfsnowgirl]

There was a game on

Friends of mine who aren't baseball fans even said it was quite the game.

 

[Lorenzzo]

I watched the entire death march.

 

[Phelmut]

No rooting interest, so no. If either the Mets (rooting for) or Yanks (rooting against) were in it i would have.

 

[Andy Mink]

Heck no. I think they should count it as two games, the Dodgers get both, and get this done with!

 

[SKI-3PO]

Saw beginning to end.

 

[SKI-3PO]

You west coasters didn’t even have to stay up late!

 

[luliski]

Didn't even know it was going on...

 

[river-z]

ALMOST!

I went to bed just after midnight (PT) between the 17th and 18th inning. I was trying to get to sleep when I heard fireworks going off in the neighborhood. Figuring they had won, I got up to see how. Sure enough, Max Muncy with the 18th inning dinger.

Is 18 innings any kind of World Series record?

 

[SKI-3PO]

Is 18 innings any kind of World Series record?

Yes, the previous long was 14 innings.

 

[SKI-3PO]

Last nights game was 7 hours 20 minutes. The ENTIRE 1939 World Series (4 games) was 7 hours 5 minutes.

 

[Jim McDonald]

I went for a bike ride, picked up a light wind jacket I'd ordered at Mont Bell, booked a ski trip to Hokkaido, ate a late lunch, and bought a new pair of skis.

 

[Lorenzzo]

Didn't even know it was going on...

Wish I'd been that fortunate. Not the best baseball ever played and it just....would....never....end.

 

[luliski]

I briefly became a baseball fan again when my beloved Cubbies finally made it, but It's usually too slow for me to watch.

 

[Shawn C.]

I stayed up. I was listening (LA feed via MLB app). We cut the cord a few years ago, plus Joe Buck is insufferable!

I have a weird masochism when it comes to baseball. I want every extra inning game that my team isn’t playing in to last forever. Last night was a classic!

 

[SKI-3PO]

That was better.

 

[Near Nyquist]

Yup
Go Boston !!!
And I watched every damn inning last night too

 

[Lorenzzo]

Two teams not really playing their best but toughing it out. 9 runs by Boston with their last 7 outs to come back was pretty cool.

No rooting interest, so no. If either the Mets (rooting for) or Yanks (rooting against) were in it i would have.

I still remember the Mets-Astros game in 86....the first and I were going out for a fancy dinner and I was listening to the game to the restaurant and I didn't want to go it. We ended up having an noce dinner and I listened to the rest of the game on the way home. That was a better game than this one IMHO.
