Saturday baseball trivia

This happened four times over the years:

[SamuelAdams]

1. There was the 2020 Covid Series.

The Yankees and Giants shared the Polo Grounds in 1921 and 1922. I can't think of a fourth. The Red Sox and Boston Braves shared Fenway Park briefly but don't think they played in a World Series.

3. You nailed 3 out of 4

The 2020 series was played strictly at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, between the Dodgers and Rays (and the Rays did not win, unfortunately).

The remaining one happened in 1944 at Sportsman's Park in St. Louis when the Cardinals defeated the St. Louis Browns in the only all-St. Louis "Streetcar Series".

2. I can do three of the four:

l1921-1921 in the Polo Grounds between the Giants and the Yankees.

1944 in Sportsmam Park between the Braves an the Cardinals.

4. You added the missing one as I was replying above

5. Boy howdy, I though one was gonna be the 1989 Earthquake Series between the Giants and the A's

I mistakenly thought Candlestick got ‘Red tagged’ and they moved games three and four to the Oakland Coliseum for the sweep.

6. Maybe

you smoked a little extra back then, Brother Buzz!

7. My buzz back in those days was award winning homemade wines

I had just popped a cork on a fine bottle Sauvignon blanc and was settling in to watch the game. Crazy, Candlestick started shacking, then seconds later we started shacking. Then bam, the broadcast ended.

8. I was in high school at the time

I remember watching news clips on the news over and over. But you lived the experience and became a city of champions! Oakland did, I mean (close enough).
