The World Series matchup is set, as Boston won 5-2 on Shane Victorino's Grand Slam. I've got the St. Louis as slight favorites, but this pretty much amounts to a tossup. Boston looked pretty strong in the ALCS, so hopefully the Cardinals pitching will quiet their bats a bit, and games 3-5 will be their only chances to face a David-Ortiz-free lineup, most likely. Today will be the first day without baseball since the All-Star break, because of the extra wildcard play-in in the AL, and the 5-game LDSs in each league.
