I think I’ve officially never seen a September run like Yelich is having...unreal.

Tomorrow is going to be a hell of a sports day, I’m gonna wake up at 5am and have the Ryder Cup as an appetizer and then I’m gonna need 6 TVs from Noon on.

NL west is tied too.  Could have two 1 game playoffs on Monday.

If the Cubs and Brewers played the whole season at the same WL pace as the last two weeks, the cubs would have 95 wins and be 40 games behind the brewers. Great finish for Milwaukee.

Why no T-Plush? 

I wonder where that guy is now?  Probably playing semi-pro hockey in Finland...

McCalvy tweeted Yelich's last 14 PAs: 4 HR, 8 Walks, 2 SO.

He has an outside chance to win the Triple Crown.  Leads in BA, tied in HR and 2 RBI behind Baez.

Very impressive finish by the Brewers.  A Cubs - Brewers series would be a gas.  I'm rooting for both.

Bummed that today's game are only broadcast if you have the baseball package.

Does anyone know if you can get the Cubs or Brewers streaming?

I'm pretty sure that MLB.tv is free all weekend for all games.

If they play a tie breaker for the division that counts in the regular season stats. So if Brewers win today I think Yelich has a good chance to win the Triple Crown in the NL since the first time since 1937

Eng just beat me to it. I think Yeli has a real chance. I say he caps it off Monday with a 2 run shot in the 8th to win it. A fitting way in an iconic venue.

However this all ends up, it's made me care more about baseball this past month than the Packers. That's no small feat.

Oh I'll still have the Packer game on primarily today.  Switching to baseball during the commercials or if it gets out of hand.

So why should a single game tiebreaker be used to decide the division instead of the 19 games that were already played? Logically, it makes no sense.

I'd say the same thing if the Brewers held the edge in the season series.

Eh, I'll find it exciting. The brewers have struggled mightly against the Tigers and the Cubs bats are cold as snow.

nothing about the mlb playoff system is logical anymore. Two best teams play a one game playoff to determine who plays a one game playoff that determines who plays the best team. It's all very dumb.

As for today should be interesting. Tigers have proven they are going out fighting. It's time to see if the Cards will roll over, or try to stick it to the Cubs.

Playoffs all include a degree of lack of logic. Don’t worry too much about it.

In this case, the two best teams play a one-game playoff so the loser can play a one-game playoff to play five more games against the team they just played in a one-game playoff.

I still can’t get over these stats below.

If the Mets had at a minimum scored 4 runs in each of deGrom’s starts, he’d be 30-0.

If the Mets had scored a minimum of 3 runs in each of deGrom’s starts, he’d be 25-1.

If they had scored minimum of 2 runs (!), he’d be 20-6.

Not sure how anybody figures that.  Opponents have scored 5 or more runs in 8 of DeGrom's starts.  Unless you also need the bullpen to never give up any runs.
