This classic world series was appreciated throughout much of the country. Recently, Carl Edwards, Jr, who got the first two of the final three outs in game seven, attended a game of the Womens' basketball team at the U. of South Carolina. The Lady Gamecocks lead the nation in attendance at womens' events, averaging over 12,000/game. When Edwards was noticed in the crowd, he was introduced, and received an ovation from thousands present.
