To those of you arguing that there is no problem with this POSSIBLE "ruling," would you have a problem with it if it were during the regular season? (And when was the last time a game was suspended after it was official even though one team was ahead. Never.) If your answer is yes, then there is a problem. The rules should not change from the regular season to the WS.

Well of course they should and do.
Both teams knew the game was going to go at least nine innings BEFORE the game even started. No World Series Game has ever been called and none ever will.
