- For those baseball fans who plan to attend FOCS in Pittsburgh:
-
- If the Pirates win their division (it that seems they have at
- least a 50% chance of accomplishing this), and they win the NLCS
- (probably less than a 50% chance of this) then games 6 and 7 of
- the world series will be played in Pittsburgh over the weekend
- of FOCS (assuming that the series goes this far).
-
- Game 6 is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 24
- Game 7 is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 25
-
- The games will probably be in the evening, although
- I do not know this for a fact.
-
- Reserved tickets are $45, and reserved general admission tickets
- are $25. Tickets can be ordered by sending a check to:
-
-
- Pittsburgh Pirates
- PO Box 6759
- Pittsburgh, PA 15212
-
- Include an extra $5 dollars for postage and handling with each order.
- They will send you the tickets by mail. Of course tickets for unplayed
- games will be refunded, sans the handling fee. Last year they
- sold out all the world series games by mail.
-
- This is all the info that I have.

-
- P.S. This probably means that hotel rooms will be hard to get
- at the last minute if the world series looks like it is going
- to be in town.
