A Shamvesty

Been really busy with non-baseball activities, but...

Game 5 of the World Series was a travesty.

I understand why MLB attempted to start the game, but why did it take six innings to determine that a monsoon is inappropriate weather for baseball? Or baseball fans? Much less the World Series? Much less a potential deciding game?

It's also unfair. The Phils have now had to play defense in a deluge. When the game resumes, the Rays will play defense in the bottom of the inning under ordinary conditions.

So it's a sham.

And a travesty.

It's a shamvesty.
