: Baseball has been known to decide the presidential election. From 1952
: to 1976, the theory that if an American League team won the most recent World
: Series the Republican candidate would win the presidency. There was a wonky
: stretch of four wrong predictions in five cycles between 1980 and 1996, but
: the past three elections have abided by the playbook.
: In all, 11 of the past 15 elections were correctly predicted by the winner

: 简单讲, 美国总统大选与同年的世界大赛有很大的关联性,
: 美联冠军赢下世界大赛的话, 有很高的比例共和党会拿下总统大选的胜利.
: 这样的事 从 1952 年开始的十五个样本里, 发生了十一次.
: 国联巨人身在深蓝的加州, 看来帮了民主党一个大忙...
