MLB 2018.1: ...And The Nationals Will Not Make It Out of the First Round

Re: MLB 2018.1: ...And The Nationals Will Not Make It Out of the First Round

Has there ever been a 164? Also, there are too many 163s nowadays.

There's been a 165. The Dodgers and Giants played in a 3-game playoff in 1962 to decide the NL pennant. They all counted as regular season games, and Maury Wills played in all 165. Incidentally, that was the year he won the NL MVP.

EDIT: That was the last of the 4 best-of-three playoffs the NL had. Shortly afterwards, they adopted the single-elimination playoff that the AL already had in place.

Yelich is 2 RBI off the pace for the Triple Crown. A week ago, I thought he had no chance. Now I'm going to be disappointed if he DOESN'T do it.

1959

The Dodgers were in all four of them. 1959 is the only one that they won.

Turns out that the American League has ALWAYS had the 1-game playoff, and never a best-of-three.

Looking at 2 playoff games tomorrow. All 4 teams in contention very comfortably handling business this afternoon.

Mauer caught one last time for the twins. He doesn’t do that unless he’s retiring. :(

Slainte to Baby Jesus.

One of the all time greats. Not all time great Twins, all time greats, period.

After seeing the video....yeah. That was it for him.

Khris Davis hit .247 this year.....for the 4th year in a row.

That's putting it mildly. All 4 teams have put up double digit runs on the board with three being shutouts.

Nice thing about game 163s - they count as a regular season game.

Yelich now needs a dinger to earn the triple crown. He already has a RBI.

(Assuming Baez is quiet)

That's how Guidry got his 25th win in 1978, going 25-3 for the season.
