Frank Franc with a 1-2-3 9th. Amazing.

Mets have won 7 of 8 games in Philly, last time they did that was 1972.

Mets with a 4 game winning streak, WE GOING FOR DA WILD CARD!

And have him hit break all the bats in the dugout? Hell no.

It was the wrong call on the umps part but that won't be the first bullshit call. There's going to be more of them to show up the kid and eventually it's going to be when the team needs him most.

and sorry Enigma, Storen had some SICK sliders today.

Hopefully we can take care of the Tigers coming up.

hopefully it would suck if we were swept out of first again, hopefully we can do the sweeping this time open up a nice lead and a little breathing room. Worst case we need to win at least 1 as that will make it so they only gain a game in the 3 game series coming up.

The way both teams are playing though, there is a good chance the sept 10th-13th 4 game series will decide the winner as if either team can take 3 or 4 of the games they will likely have the momentum to finish off the season and take first.

That being said though the sox are currently in front of the wild card teams, and the tigers aren't far behind, so it's not impossible for one of the wild card teams to come from the central. At the very least I hope it's an exciting last month... and if it isn't it's because the tigers fell apart :p

I should be panicking about the Yankees, yet i'm not.......yet.

I'm not panicking but it is fucking annoying. I actually think its pretty good timing to play like shit. They did this earlier and then went on a tear. I hope they do the same and run through the playoffs

It is, however, pathetic to need to be worried about a series against the O's in August/Sept

Feel terrible for Bills. Finally has a good season again, enjoying one of the best patches of his career.. and now he's done for the season perhaps? And Jansen out too? Big blow.

I finally dropped Bryce Harper in my fantasy league after his abysmal few months and not only does he hit 2 HRs in a game shortly thereafter, my opponent picked him up and played him yesterday!
 
Don't sass me, realistically we need to win 11 games. You better have .gifs on standby.

Lol, haven't made a new one for this year. I'll get to it. I'm feeling pretty confident the Reds will win the division this year. And, this is the first year I picked them to win. Didn't pick the Nats to win, though.
 

Windu

never heard about the cat, apparently
what happened to the Up and In Podcast? They haven't done one in the past few weeks. I need my fix. :(
 
Lets's see...

a) Wright misjudged Mayberry's speed.
b) Wright was too blase fielding it.
c) Wright uncorked a UFO over Ike.

And Wigginton ties it. It's insane how he's been so average vs. everyone else. Dude has turned into a Metkiller.
