World Series Simulation


I jumped over to WhatIfSports yesterday and simulated the Series, here's what it told me:

G1: Yankees 10, Phillies 1
-W: Sabathia, L: Lee
-HRs: Rodriguez, Matsui, Cano, Posada (2)

G2: Yankees 8, Phillies 2
-W: Burnett, L: Hamels
-HRs: Matsui, Swisher, Posada (2)...Ibanez, Ruiz

G3: Yankees 10, Phillies 2
-W: Pettitte, L:Pedro
-HRs: Jeter, Cano, Swisher (2)...Howard

G4: Phillies 22, Yankees 3
-W: Lee, L: Chamberlain
-HRs: Howard (2), Ibanez, Feliz, Ruiz...Matsui

G5: Phillies 5, Yankees 1
-W: Hamels, L: Sabathia, S: Durbin
-HRs: Damon

G6: Yankees 8, Phillies 6
-W: Hughes, L: Durbin
-HRs: Teixeira (2), Swisher, Cano

According to WhatIfSports, the New York Yankees win the 2009 World Series 4-2. But you already knew that, considering Meatballs predicted #27 a month ago. Speaking of predictions, let's check how we did in the Championship Series'.

ALCS
Prediction: Yankees over Red Sox in 5
Actual: Yankees over Angels in 6

NLCS
Prediction: Phillies over Dodgers in 6
Actual: Phillies over Dodgers in 5

Just flip the amount of games around and swap the Sawx for the Halos and I was perfect. Whatever, all that matters is I got the winning teams correct. So far, in the six series played, MITM is 5-1. We'll take that every day of the week.
