No, I'm rooting for the Cards.

I don't have another strong favorite after the Cards. I just want to see a good ballgame.

Red Sox at Rays tonight! I wonder which Eduardo Rodriguez will show up for Boston tonight? He's had an off year but can still pitch a great game.

Talk about overachievers!

Respectfully, 107 wins is not overachieving. Overachieving based on what? Expectations? If that was the case the Dodgers would have won more than one WS title over the past 8 seasons. 107 wins is more akin to dominating. It’s only one game more than your Dogs though and I expect a dog fight for sure.

The Giros have had a great year, but were picked to finish last. Yeah, I'd say 107 wins was slightly overachieving.

I agree, the Dogs should have won, oh wait, they would have won the series against the Astros if pitches weren't being called from the dugout.

Yes, that is my opinion.

Hope it's a great series!

As an Angeleno, I'm friends with lots of hard-core Dodger fans. Great team. But I was hoping the Cards would have won that game last night. What a game.

SF-LA series will be very interesting to watch.

I wonder when the Red Sox will play their first game?

They may show up tonight. Or not.

If JD is clear to play, Kike may shift to 2nd. Kyle to left field, Verdugo in center. It won’t be the best defensive unit, but right now, Arroyo looks lost at the plate in the 9 spot.

edit—Cora just posted the line up—Schwarber at first. Arroyo still in 9 spot. Bobby D sitting. I will second guess this decision.

The Red Sox--Rays game was a slugfest!

I also watched most of the Dodgers--Giants game.

Jim - what happened last night? Sale bombed and the Red Sox managed to win. He also didn't make it out of the 2nd inning his last start on closing day. Anything wrong with him?

Somehow the Sox came back with 20 hits against the Rays. I wonder if that's the most hits the Rays have given up this year?

Giants! I don't know who will win that series but I don't think it'll go 5 even though most people think that.

A fine day of baseball. Sort of highlights AL and NL differences. The NL ain’t gonna have slugfests.

If you had told me that Sale gives up 4 in one, yet Sox win, I would have disbelieved you. Houck saved that game. But I think we gave Tampa extra outs in the first. (I worry when Kyle plays first.) Sale will find a way to win the next time he starts.

Rough game for my Dogs last night! Hopefully they’ll rebound tonight and get Bellinger out of the lineup. He’s completely lost at the plate.

Dodger game was rough. They faced good pitching last night.
Couldn't do much against that. Hoping for better results tonight, too.
Looking for Urias to pitch a good game. Gausman should be a good matchup.

Ordered more of the same for tonight’s game. Loved that La Stella to Crawford to Flores double play.
