World Series Game 5 Thread: Coronation or Continuation?

The champs are on  the ropes, they're hopes hanging by a Cliff.

Meanwhile the evilest of empires is 27 outs from its 27th conquest, or the same amount as the White Sox, Braves, Twins, Orioles, Phillies, Indians, Cubs, Marlins, Blue Jays, Mets, Royals, Angels, Diamondbacks, Padres, Astros, Rockies, Brewers, Rays, Rangers, Nationals, and Mariners...combined.

Either this thing goes back to the Bronx or for the sixth straight season a Series ends in less than six games.
