York Rubber
What is a rubber match (in baseball)?
In the recent subway series New York Mets against the New York Yankees the last game on Sunday night was called a rubber match…What are they talking about, the pitcher’s rubber on the mound? I can’t get anyone who knows the answer…Many thanks!
The “rubber match” refers to the match that will decide who wins the series. In this case, the Mets and Yanks has split the first two, so the final game would be the rubber match.
This is from Dickson’s Baseball Dictionary:
“The last and deciding game of a series when the previous games have been split; e.g., the seventh game of the World Series.” This tie-breaking sense of “rubber” apparently originated in the pulse-pounding English game of “bowls,” or lawn bowling.”
I hope that helps.
