Kudos to MLB, Fox and Chevrolet, whose "additional level of advertising support" allowed the network to OK moving Game 3 of the World Series on Oct. 30 to 6:57 p.m. - the earliest starting time for a Series tilt since Game 6 in 1987.

Games 1, 2, 5, 6 and 7 are set to begin at 7:57 p.m.

Game 4 on Oct. 31 will begin around 8:20 p.m., after the conclusion of the sport that really matters in TV terms: NFL football.
