Seriously unlikely, I'd have thought. Best chance I can think of in London would be The Sports Cafe in Haymarket, but I wouldn't get your hopes up. Definitely give them a call first if it's at all out of your way.

Hmm, considering I'm staying about a mile outside of Heathrow, I would say Haymarket is just a bit out of the way. Still, it might be worth it if Sunday winds up being a one-game playoff...

Like I said, if Sunday's game determines who gets in the playoffs, I will be there!

Though I checked the website, and it doesn't look too promising for baseball.

Ray, try a soccer game while you're here.

I'm just going to assume this is a joke. We have plenty of soccer games here. And they all suck. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Of course they do. Likewise, if I went to a baseball game in England it would suck. But you go to where the pros play, you get some quality.

Plus, the range and variety of swearing at a football game is a wonder to behold.

Channel 5 is the only one that shows Baseball that I am aware of, sky shows the NFL. Channel 5 should be on in your hotel room 1am suggests an evening game?

There is a pay per view channel that shows American sports as well but will be surprised if anywhere has that and I suspect it shows College Football on a sunday.

Actually, Ray, give this a miss. You see one of these, it'll ruin any American Football game you ever see, cos you'll be thinking 'what a bunch of pussies!' all the time.

I have asked on another forum with a number of londoners on if there is an American bar that will be showing the games.
