Baseball IQ Weekly Recap (10/18 - 10/25)
Coming to you live with some fresh World Series highlights. Last night’s walk off didn’t end up in any of the usual lists I come up with, but this should be required viewing (and re-viewing) for anyone who hasn’t already watched it a couple times. It starts at 2:30 if you want to skip ahead to the good part.
On to the weekly* recap.

*Justin Turner broke my chart by being the first person this season to show up in this leaderboard twice in the same week. I’ve added dates to the way this is broken out in his honor, so you can see both games separately.
