I won't be able to watch the Orioles game today, but it still looks like shelling out the $10 for MLB.TV was a good choice, if only to see the A's and Rangers.

God it feels good to support a winning team.

The last time the Red Sox had a losing record was 1997.

It doesn't look like the A's are ever going to lose a game again.

It's shocking how underrated Beltran has been over the course of his career.

Braves fans are taking the 1934 World Series approach.

ABSOLUTELY INEXCUSABLE.

The WORST call in my lifetime easily.  (Don't worry, I was born in 1986 - after 1985.)

That's silly. The Posey call in Game 1 in the 2010 NLDS was a lot more egregious than this one, since it wasn't a judgment call.

Joey Votto scares me, so I made a chart to show why.

Braves fans:the people making sure Dodger fans aren't the worst in baseball

If that had been in Los Angeles, there wouldn't have been any Dodgers fans there to throw things.

what's a playoff run like now that your championship virginity has been broken, Xahar?

I find myself much largely resigned to the Giants losing and not all that upset about it.

Barry Zito has the same ERA as in 2010, when he was so bad that he was left off the postseason roster, and the offensive context is worse; he also has the second-highest xFIP in the league.

Shawn Estes was also 15-8 in 2004 with a remarkable 5.84 ERA for a team that wasn't even good.

This game has literally the worst strike zone that I have ever seen.

Ichiro, Alex Rodriguez and Raul Ibanez all played for New York today. The Yankees are basically the Mariners.

Hoping for an A's-O's ALCS in large part so that the Raiders game next weekend has to be moved to accommodate it.

So who won the DSs?  Boycotting the playoffs* has given me a lot of free time.


* - This World Series champion will have to always have an asterisk next to it.  It's sad how one idiot can ruin an entire playoff and taint a championship that probably still would have been won by whoever wins...

Sorry, that's silly.

Pythagorean records:

San Francisco: 88-74
St. Louis: 93-69

The Cardinals aren't the worse team here.

Giants, Game 3: 14 baserunners, 1 run
Cardinals, Game 4: 15 baserunners, 8 runs

eep

It's okay, though; the Giants haven't lost in Barry Zito's last 12 starts.
