8. That is the basic flaw

I watched this game and it was pretty boring. When you pack 5 into the scoring area on defense it becomes almost impossible to score. When you have 4 comebacks in 60 years then fundamentally something is wrong in the design. Think of comebacks in football, basketball and baseball. It is some of the most exciting games we have ever watched. Think of game 6 n the ‘75 series with Bernie Carbo hit the 3 run hr in the bottom of the 8th and Fisk hitting the hr in the 12th. The game was won on the field.
