And Now the Important News: You CAN buy beer at game five
 |
During typical MLB games beer sales are cut off at the bottom of the 7th inning, an unfortunate occurrence that no doubt saves lives and infuriates drunks.

“Today is considered a new event,” he said.
So the cutoff would be after seven more innings – which means the brew won’t stop flowing unless a handful of extra innings are played.
