I'm not a fan of either team but if asked to choose one, I prefer that the Dodgers win since they have a 30 year championship drought, while Boston has won three times since 2004.

While I'm a Indians fan at heart. I'm rooting for the Dodgers as they're my number two team. I'd love to see them end the 30 year drought.

Give it time and maybe Cleveland can become a Championship team. With this upcoming free agency and the younger guys working in the minors. The Indians may just have a shot. Bobby Bradley is the future 1st Baseman after Yonder is gone. Unless they stupidly trade him like they did Mejia. I'd be really mad if they trade Triston McKenzie who had a killer year in Akron.

I'm not watching these world series games but I saw the news today that Max Muncy hit the game winning homer for the Dodgers in game 3.
Muncy used to play for the A's and never did much as a hitter while he was there, but now that he's with the Dodgers in La La land of course he becomes a star.

I'm rooting for the Red Sox because ex- Tigers Ian Kinsler and the awesome J.D. Martinez are on the team. I was so angry that The Tigers let them go! We sucked this season. During the play-offs I was rooting for The Brewers mainly because I have avid Brewers fans relatives in Wisconsin. They almost pulled it off. Gave the Dodgers a run for their money! Go Sox!
