World Series: Interesting stat...
Edited on Mon Oct-25-10 10:25 AM by Auggie
Texas lost only one away game in interleague play -- meaning, no DH in the line-up. They were 8-1. The Giants record with the DH was 1-5

ON EDIT: Should have been posted in an existing baseball thread. Apologies...

1. I was in fact
looking at the Giants schedule right before I came to the post and I noticed they were swept by the A's on the road but they swept the A's at home. I don't have a point, I was looking to answer joey's question if SF played Texas this year which they didn't.

It is an interesting stat and something I will keep in my mind throughout the series.

2. I think that the Giants swept the Rangers in Frisco last year.
I was reading an article yesterday that said that. I can't find it now. It also said that the Rangers have lost 9 or 11 straight to the Giants. And the first ever interleague game was played at Candlestick in 1997 between them.

3. You've got that wrong..
the first interleague game was played in Texas, not in San Francisco....and while it's true the Giants have beaten the Rangers 11 straight, that's only at home..
