Talk:2023 World Series

Rangers vs Diamondbacks
I believe this will be the first postseason meeting, between the Rangers & Diamondbacks. I wonder, should this be mentioned in the lead? GoodDay (talk) 17:49, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

Cut the reference to it being presented by a corporate sponsor. Their logo is already on the right hand side and its redundant information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:587:8736:FDD7:3D73:1216:D3CC:CC5D (talk) 13:25, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Curse of Bob Short to be mentioned in this article
Well, the Curse of Bob Short is to be mentioned in this article under the "Background" section as a sports-related curse that is only relevant to the Texas Rangers in response to the World Series loss in 2011 to the St. Louis Cardinals and an almost-won Game 6 with one strike away in the ninth and the tenth leading by one run each. The source can be found here (Dallas News) and here (The Washington Post), which mentioned that the Rangers are under the Curse of Bob Short after that loss. I pointed out that the Rangers are also looking into ending that sports-related curse if they finally win this World Series, which they're doing it against the Diamondbacks. Why this sports-related curse information shouldn't be included in the "Texas Rangers" subsection under "Background" on this article? -- Allen (talk / ctrb) 19:59, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * One source from 2011, an op-ed in WaPo, then reported on by the Dallas News, does not establish that such a thing is a "thing". – Muboshgu (talk) 20:18, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
