Open GameThread: World Series Game 1 - Dodgers @ Red Sox

By Kate Stanwick
MLB: World Series-Los Angeles Dodgers at Boston Red Sox Brian Fluharty-USA TODAY Sports

After defeating the Brewers in Game 7 of the ALCS, the Dodgers have travelled to Boston for Game 1 of the World Series. With the dampness from the rain, the weather there will feel like 40F/4C tonight, a drastic drop from today’s high in Los Angeles of 79F/26C. We should all send warm thoughts to Matt Gross who will be there tonight.

Grant Brisbee wrote out 15 Reasons to Watch the World Series, and there are some pretty fun things in here. Hoping for a great series.

Here are tonight’s lineups:
