What are the odds that a swath of otherwise locked-in baseball fans haven't watched an inning of the World Series, just because their teams are out and it'd be torture to see the Nationals and Astros going at it? We're not talking about the (small) armies of, say, Tigers or Pirates loyalists; they're used to empty Octobers. We're instead zeroing in on the Yankees' and Dodgers' fanbases, who by all accounts should be grateful for the prosperity, even if their offseasons have already started.
The Dodgers, after all, were the National League's most successful team, what with their 106 regular-season victories, 59-22 home record (also tops in the NL) and a gate of nearly 4 million—No.
