SLACKISH REACTION: “I went to bed it was 9-4” is what I heard at the bagel store. I guess if you are baseball a 9th inning comeback is exciting and all, so I won’t hate on it. I channel surfed past it at 11:45 and saw the Bosox had taken the lead but I continue to have no interest. 3 hours 57 minutes. Never mind the late start, four hour baseball games are a bad idea Commish.
After last-night’s record-setting marathon WS G3, Manfred rules out rule change at major league level such as starting extra innings w man on 2nd. “It is not under active consideration.”

This is interesting….
Fox senior exec provides an interesting breakdown of last night’s record setting WS game, and again debunks the stubborn myth of mass viewer tuneout after 11 PM ET. Once again, the game went up as the night went on. And this is a key reason why games are on when they are on. https://t.co/di9ab3YDPR

…but I bet a lot of that has to do with there being not much else on the West Coast so you picked up some incremental players. A fool would extrapolate that baseball SHOULD play that late on the East Coast
The 13.25 million viewers is off by 15 pct from last year’s World Series Game 3, also on a Friday, as this year’s slide continues. https://t.co/BWkR45rYBg

NOT LINKING: “The Mets could benefit from playing with an edge in 2019” is something someone wrote.
This has been a really long run of no Mets news at all. I have to Actually Work tomorrow so I expect them to announce the GM. You know, the guy with no experience running a baseball team.
