  - Well, the statheads who made up that measurement are. -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 25, 09:27 5

      - Actually, you'll see I've not made any argument at all. And surely, if I do, it won't be in a WPA manner -- nm - Will Hunting Oct 25, 09:30 3

        That WPA is a shitty metric to use...yep, got it. I'm consistent. - Will Hunting Oct 25, 09:32 1

- I don't even know what the hell WPA is. But 5-6, 4 Runs, 3 HRs and 6 RBI. There's never been a game like it. -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 09:26 19

    - Um...yeah, I am. 3 men have had 3 homers in a World Series game. 2 men have had 5 hits in a WS game. 3 men have had 6 RBI in a WS game. - Jim Oct 25, 09:36 5

        You'll never ever see me using sabermetrics in a baseball argument. Never have, never will. -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 09:41 1

      - I agree with Jim 75%. nm -- nm - ghouly Oct 25, 09:37 1
        
        I'll take it. :) -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 09:38
    - ah, but you're not accounting for the statistical effect of BBQ, which is a new stat I just made up. - znufrii Oct 25, 09:34 2

        silly JackDawson... - znufrii Oct 25, 09:37
  - It's only one RBI more than Reggie who went 3-3 with 3 HRs, 4 runs and 5 RBI's. - Krusty Oct 25, 09:29 8
    - So I guess we don't count the 2 singles that started earlier inning rallies then? -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 09:30 7
      - It was an amazing performance but I see it as equal to what had already been done. - Krusty Oct 25, 09:33 6
        
        I can give you Larsen. -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 09:38 4

        I guess so. Had Jovian said best offensive game in World Series history, then he would have been more right. -- nm - Jim Oct 25, 09:43 2
        
        Still not right. - Krusty Oct 25, 09:48 1

- I think Morris throwing 10 shutout innings in a game 7 was the second best pitching performance of the WS. - Krusty Oct 25, 09:26
not sure if this is sarcasm or not..... - ghouly Oct 25, 09:22 1
- Offensively, it's probably the best ever --- surely you might argue Reggie or Ruth's were more timely...but pure #'s wise...it's at the top - Will Hunting Oct 25, 09:24
