IlliniKrush Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) You can say that teams have a different mentality, but it's pretty hard to have momentum when baseball is a completely individual sport disguised as a team game.

kitekrazy Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 11:31 PM) As far as momentum goes, I don't think it comes into play much in the conventional sense in baseball. I think offenses can help each other and hurt each other, but the starting pitcher (most important individual) is impervious to the changes in momentum. I can see that. The game is more about streaks. It's not often the best team in baseball wins the World Series. I think the NFL is getting more like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the last two World Series were won by NL teams challenges that along with the Sox still leading the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Hibbard Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Beyond this debate about the meaning of the word momentum, can anyone else agree that not facing Verlander is a better thing anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
