Not that the past dictates the present, but the thread in this tweet includes some interesting research related to how World Series have finished in the past.
And of those 16 times where the World Series was tied, 2-2, the series was extended to the full seven games 12 times.
Yep.
So, that means the team that lost Game 5 went 12-4 in Game 6. So much for any thoughts of "momentum" playing a role in a potential clincher, eh?

Personally I prefer to discuss current and future Cardinals instead of former Cardinals.
If the world series makes it to game 7 a Buehler vs Morton matchup could be a classic.
Arozarena strikes again. 10 postseason homers now. Total bases who knows, need a calculator for that at this point. Wow, just wow.
A comment Smoltz made stuck with me. “The Rays hitters are stepping up to the box ready to hit. They are swinging at first pitches.” They also noted how hitters are hammering even outside pitches. Does anyone ever throw inside to back hitters off anymore?
Brian, with all the body armor and willingness to get hit by a pitch, it’s hard to back hitters off the plate. Also, pitchers get thrown out of games so easily when they hit batters that they can’t throw inside like they use to.
I think they need to outlaw any padding or body guards when batting.
That was as fast as it was predictable. Double, wild pitch run scores, RBI single and the Rays are down 2-1.
What a turd-for-brains move by Cash. Who couldn’t see that had potential fail written all over it? Early Christmas present for the Dodgers.
This was who Cash brought in to relieve Snell. Excellent in the regular season and terrible in October. The streak was six going into tonight…
Nick Anderson has allowed at least 1 run in 7 straight postseason games, the longest streak by a reliever in MLB history.

Justin Turner came out of the game because of a positive test for COVID-19, per Fox.

There’s only like three people in the stands and yet when Manfred went to speak to present the trophy, he was booed so loudly he stopped talking.
Rob Manfred handing out a piece of metal getting booed mercilessly by the 11k people he let in the building is such great theater.
