The Nationals (97 – 68) uprising in the 9th was really pivotal and broke open a 4 – 3 game that could have gone either way. The Bottom of the Inning a sad 1 – 2 – 3. What this means is, in addition to the Dodgers (92 – 73) facing elimination, the Nationals are …

This game was notable because it was the first time since 1924 that a Reliever hit a Post Season Home Run. Travis Wood also got the win after Kyle Hendricks left in the 4th with a Line Drive bruise. Also Madison Bumgarner made an appearence as a Pinch Hitter in the 5th and reached on …

Postponed for a day because of Matthew this may be Red Sox Nation’s last chance this season to worship at the shrine of The Great God Citgo. Since that’s the case I’ll tell you a Fenway story. So last year I was following L’Hermione up the East Coast and the stop was Boston. Now I …

So this one won’t be a sweep. There will be at least 2 games at the Dodgers (92 – 72) and if the Nationals (96 – 68) can eek out a win in either of them they’ll finish up at home. The story of the game was the 3 RBI HR in the 4th Inning …

Where was the Indians at Red Sox? Postponed due to Matthew, they will play tomorrow. Now you might have wished it was the game that conflicted with the debate, alas not so. Of course if you’re not a Baseball fan and you still don’t like rubbernecking trainwrecks there’s always Giants/Packers. The Blue Jays’ (91 – …

Well, that was slightly surprising. Kershaw had a terrible game and got chased with 101 pitches and 3 runs scored in the 5th. The Dodgers (92 – 71) Bullpen was up to the task however and shut out the Nationals (95 – 68) for the final 4. The Nationals contributed to their own problems with …

So where was Dodgers @ Nationals? Rained out because of Matthew. Re-scheduled for 1 pm tomorrow. Tonight’s game is on MLB Net and as it turns out I do get it in my current location at North Lake where I am enduring some time with Richard and Emily. Damn Leafers. In any event if you …

You might think I’m down on the Giants (88 – 75) because they beat my Metropolitans but considering how lucky they were to be in it at all I can’t hold that against them. If I betray any bias at all it’s because it’s been a very, very long time for the Cubs (103 – …

The Brooklyn Traitors vs. the Division Rivals. Who do I hate the least? Sigh. I guess it’s the Nationals (95 – 67) because my cousins from D.C. like them a lot and and my hatered for the Quislings of Chaves Ravine is deep and undiminished by time. Despite a weaker Regular Season record, the Dodgers …

Ok, now I can make reassuring noises for Red Sox (93 – 70) fans. Even though Divisional Series are short, it’s not “Sudden Death”. The Red Sox played the Indians (95 – 67) tough, it was a 1 Run game and the Indians had Home Field advantage. What did you expect? It’s not the crowd …
