Other than the Yanks-Sox, what rivalry do you think is the best. IMO its the Cards-Cubbies but im biased.

Dodgers and Giants.

Twins and Indians... Some day they will be broadcasted on ESPN over a fight instead of the thirty second segments in the past.

I hate ESPN 30-second segments... it doesn't even last 30-seconds unless it Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, or St. Louis.

I think it's the Cards and Cubs. But the Indians and Twins do have a good rivalry. Seems like they get into a scuffle every year now....and Jason Davis usually instigates most of 'em.

Re: Best Rivalry in baseball?

Re: Best Rivalry in baseball?

I'm with Sportsman on this one..

Dodgers/Giants
Cubs/Cards
Cubs/Sox
Mets/Yanks

then I'm adding

Braves/Mets

It's cooled off a lot as of late, but in the late 90's, games between these two were as good as it gets.

Re: Best Rivalry in baseball?

Cubs/Cards
Yanks/Sox
Giants/Dodgers

My favorite rivalry that doesn't really carry the weight it used to was the Cards/Mets. In the mid 80's when they were always fighting over the Eastern Division THAT WAS A RIVALRY. The whole city of STL would get riled up for a Met visit. Everybody called the Mets pondscum. I even had a t-shirt that said: "Metred: Intense hatred for the New York Mets."

This weekend Cards/Mets at Shea! Go Cards beat the freakin pondscum out of'em.
