Guess I'm rooting for Cleveland cause the Rays are kind of the bastard stepchild of MLB and no one cares.

It would be a shame for the best record in the League Dodgers got beat even before the Series.
You're 2 for 2. Now it's an I-5 semi. Are you really rooting for the Dodgers?

Hey, I'm happy for the Padres and the Mariners. Add a playoff series win to their good seasons. Yay for all. But if I recall, the original issue was getting to the World Series, so I'll still stick with "not worthy" as compared to somebody like the Dodgers. On the other hand, it would be totally cool for one of the underdogs actually won.

Somebody may have mentioned something about "worthiness" but they were probably wrong.

Bottom 10th, paraphrased: The game is now about 4 hours old and the NYY haven't scored in 3 hours and 45 minutes.

CLE wins 4-2, heading home for 2 games. Series 1-1, only the Ms are winless.


Edit: Phillies 6-run 3rd!
Edit: Phillies 3-run 7th, 9-1!
Edit: Phillies lead series 2-1! That obnoxious chant may be done for the year.
