This game has everything.

1:19

2nd longest World Series game by time ever I think.... Only game 3 in 2005 World Series longer(at 5:41)

Jeremy

1:19

The Canadian feed still has commercials.

Paul Swydan

1:19

No one cares about Canada, Jeremy.

cool

Kidding.

Sort of.

1:20

Nice throw from Maybin.

Guest

1:20

Fox is assuming no one is watching any longer

Paul Swydan

1:20

Yeah, they must figure if they go to commercial, they might lose everyone.

The Tender Vigilante

1:21

Watch this go like seven innings scoreless now

Let's get nuts.

Daniel

1:21

Marlins man blends in nicely here in Houston

Paul Swydan

1:21

Yes I noted that as well.

Ishii

1:22

Commericials are pre sold so I doubt there's money to be gained by running/ not running once obligations are fulfilled

Paul Swydan

1:22

They can do make goods or run ads for their own shows.

Daniel

1:22

I think Fox is trying to minimize down time?

Paul Swydan

1:22

Yes, that is my opinion.

The 6ix

1:22

They are stupid to not re-run ads. Generates goodwill with advertisers and gross impressions.

Don't Bogaerts the Xander

1:22

Fighting a cold, I took a dose of Ny-Quil at 11. I've been regretting that decision for a while now.

Paul Swydan

1:23

ETHIER LIKE A KID OUT THERE MIXING IT UP.

Commercials this time. Seems like a local ad block?

Yakaru

1:24

There is actually a big case in front of the Canadian version of the FCC (CRTC) regarding commercial breaks on simulcast feeds of American sports (specifically the Superbowl)

Lachlan

1:24

I'm down for 30 innings, Who's with me?

deananna

1:24

I WANT TO SEE POSITION PLAYERS PITCH IN A NON-BLOWOUT WS GAME

Guest

1:24

Working nights I have to say this is making my shift a lot more interesting.

jsolid

1:24

You wanna get nuts? Cmon, lets get nuts.

STL

1:24

Approx how many ppl were in the chat during first inning ... and how many now? We can probably ascertain the approx amount of ppl still watching across the country if we assume 16MM started watching the game (as they did for game 4), and then at least triple the ratio for amount of ppl dropping off due to fangraphs chat users being obviously zealous baseball fans in comparison to the typical person

Paul Swydan

1:24

More now, somehow. We're at 754.

Jeremy

1:24

Jansen for one more, then McCarthy, right?

Paul Swydan

1:25

McCarthy looked awful in Game 2. I think Jansen goes as long as he's capable of.

Yasmani Grandal

1:25

Paul, the correct answer to your Live Blog subheading question is yes, btw.

Garrett

1:25

Darren Rovell says they have run out of ads.

Paul Swydan

1:25

Huh.

1:26

If true, that's pretty sad.

Safety Stegosaurus

1:26

This game has been so long that they don't have an off day now

ifyousheaso

1:26

Keith Hernandez is shaking his fist at the sky, saying "I didn't sign up for extra innings!"

Marshall

1:27

Do you consider actors to not be “real people”?

Paul Swydan

1:27

Uh...no?

NtflxnRichHill

1:27

I did not anticipate so many strong opinions about the lack of ads.

David S.

1:27

I bet Puig blows 98 off the mound so I am all in on 30 innings
