Cosmpolitan: 8 Hot Reasons to Watch the World Series

These baseball players are so skilled, they belong on a fantasy baseball team. And they’re so good-looking, they belong in your fantasies…

Elvis Andrus, Texas Rangers
The shortstop became famous this season for reaching first base every single game he played. It’s no wonder they call him “The King” and he dons the number 1 on his uniform. Oh yeah, and he’s single too.

What the hell kind of statheads do they employ over there, anyway?

I can't figure out if this is misinformation or innuendo.

And ladies, here's a tip to get your man's attention during the game... get NAKED!

they use rulers instead of a spreadsheet

Well, they didn't say he reached first base safely.

And as long as he runs out all his grounders ...

which must be a euphemism for something.

Wait, I thought chicks dug the long ball.

Turns out they only dug the steroids. Go figure but it explains the continually expanding popularity of the NFL.

I'm pretty sure it was just referencing his postseason hitting streak (broken now, but still has a postseason on-base streak going). They just forgot/didn't know to use the qualifier.

Far more confusing is saying that CJ Wilson is a "closing pitcher".

He sure is dreamy, though.

Perhaps next year Maxim will present some "hot reasons" for watching the WNBA finals. (And please, no jokes about the attractiveness of female basketball players; as a group, are they any more or less representative of their gender than baseball players are of theirs?)

Well, at least we know what Travis Ishikawa is around for...although dude really needs to do something about those eyebrows.

#1: Leave Feliz in the bullpen "for later" while the game falls apart.

He’s a power hitter, volunteers at a children’s hospital, and donated $150,000 to youth baseball programs. Still not convinced? His nickname's "Pat the Bat". Just sayin'...

Man, is Burrell going to catch some s**t for this one.
