the Curse of the Bambino will be lifted...TOMORROW!!!
A unique date in the annals of baseball history will be recorded Wednesday when for the first time a total lunar eclipse will occur during a World Series game.
Millions of Americans watching Game 4 will also be able to partake in one of nature’s most beautiful sky shows, as Earth's shadow begins to cover the moon during the early innings.
Weather permitting, the eclipse will be visible to fans with a good line of sight at Busch Memorial Stadium. And, if Fox television producers so choose, the potential exists for this to be the biggest audience ever to see a lunar eclipse televised live.
Close calls
This notable Fall Classic owes partly to the fact that from 1903 through 1970, the World Series was only played during the daytime.
In 1971, night games became part of the World Series. But no total lunar eclipse since that time has occurred at just the right time.
There were two close calls during the 1980s.
In 1985, a total lunar eclipse on Oct. 28 came the day after the final game of the World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and Kansas City Royals. The following year, another total eclipse occurred on Oct. 17. But that was the day before the start of the series between the New York Mets and the Boston Red Sox.
Even if the dates of these eclipses and World Series games had coincided, it would still have been a moot point since these two eclipses were visible only on the other side of the globe, across Asia.
However, this week's eclipse will favor the Western Hemisphere, with most Americans getting a ringside seat.
The St. Louis Cardinals will host the Boston Red Sox at Busch Memorial Stadium in St. Louis. The ballgame is set to get under way shortly after 8 p.m. ET.
how nuts is it that a full lunar eclipse would happen on the middle game between two of the teams that the total lunar eclipse just missed?
