World Series Game #1 Tonight – Who Will You Root For?

The World Series 2012 is here. So, if your team didn't make it, who do you root for? I had a winner on "Greg's Grill" noontime request hour yesterday, who said that he's a Yankee fan and doesn't care who wins. Hey, my team didn't make it to the series either (not even the playoffs), but I'm rooting for one of these clubs.

According to mlb.com:

"The San Francisco Giants will host the Detroit Tigers for Game 1 of the World Series on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on FOX, and before this Fall Classic starts, it's already unique. The Giants have reached the World Series 19 times now, the Tigers 11 -- but never at the same time, until now."

Right-hander Justin Verlander will be on the mound for the Tigers, while left-hander Barry Zito gets the nod for the Giants in game 1.

To make things easier, here is the World Series seven game (if necessary) schedule, courtesy of sportingnews.com:

"All times EST

Game 1: Wednesday, Oct. 24 Detroit Tigers at San Francisco Giants, 8:07 p.m., FOX

* if necessary"

And, pitchers will have to hit in tonight's game, as it takes place in a National League park.

May the best team win, even if it's not my team!
