"World series"

 

The problem is the American's definition of "world". 

planet-earth-united-states-america-d-ill

 

If you turn this ball 180 degrees you will see where you are. Just a hint to the OP

The real "World Series" is actually the World Baseball Classic with teams coming from many countries, including such baseball powerhouses as the Czech Republic, China and Israel. It will take place in March next year with initial rounds in Tokyo, Taichung, Miami and Phoenix.

To the point.

Not before I read "Dodgers" I knew what the thread is about.

Why should Thailand free TV pay for sports that is of zero interest here.

 

BTW: how is coverage of Sepak Takraw in the US?

 

typical reaction from the *******s . who said it should be free to air? I didnt .

have checked throughly. only way to get it is from subscribing to MLB TV online.  True is the biggest joke of all wall to wall Soccer obssession

Quit relying on tv to show major events like this a long time ago. Signed up to nfl international the last decade or so to ensure see every game that interests me. Worth the 200 dollars a year for whole season.

16 major league teams in the US in 1903.

 

Can't find information about teams in other countries back then, so I doubt any non-US teams would have been competitive, but not sure.

 Game 1 was exceptional  !

Im not a fan of either team but

the fall classic started with the WS favorite ,Houston Astros taking a 5 run lead early on ! Then miraculously the Philadelphia Phillies tied and sent the game into extra innings  , all coming off of the Astros ace pitcher. Philly got a home run to break the tie in the 10th inning and went on to winning the game in Houston.

I watched the MLB highlights on YT!

I do not know about the World Series not being shown on TV.

Neither is the T 20 World cup for cricket ,now on in Australia ,and they are 16 countries  completing 

Unlike the World Series with, er, one country.

As has been said no call for it ,the wife has said what is cricket.

look, the reality is that it is many countries of the Americas... lots of really talented Dominicans, Venezuelans... 

 

You got a team, send them over - you have any players? They can make big $$ if they have talent... Some japanese and a few Koreans are taking home big money... anyone from where you are from?

Two countries. 

US and Canada are in the leagues.

You could also say blue vs  red America are also represented.

Its the name of it!  need to rename the FIFA Soccer cup in Qatar  "The Corrupt oil soccer finals"

It's a Football Cup, not "Soccer".
