To quote the irrepressible Ice Cube: today was a good day. Broke even with the WLB to maintain a 2.5 game lead on them. Padres lost, lifting the Reds back to sole possession of the WC spot with a slew of Pirates games coming up on the horizon. Also, Wade Miley pitched whatever the opposite of a no-hitter is. So he’s even too.
I haven’t followed Detroit for awhile, but back in July/August, they were playing some good baseball. Let’s beat them badly so the LA games aren’t that important.
