Oh.

Congrats Cubbies.
Hell of a series…and WC setup benefits you here as well.

Good to see Kershaw finally sack up and pitch like he's capable of in October. Hopefully Grienke follows suit tomorrow. Go Dodgers.

Happy for the Cubs as well. Hate the Cardinals. Joe Maddon proving just how valuable a good Manager is.

Today wise, definitely rooting for the Royals, my AL team. Jays-Rangers, go Jays, can't root for Cole Hamels.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

Yeah that was great Managing. Some guys(*cough* Matt Williams *cough*)would have stuck with the starter because "that's what we do." But I love how Maddon is forward thinking and not afraid to go against the grain.

What a game so far.

Neither pitcher perfect. Both battling.

The Jays-Rangers game could be decided by one of the stupidest things ever.

Unfortunate for the Jays, but that was the right call.

It was the right call. Choo never left the box nor intentionally got in Martin's way.

Get these jokers outta here MLB.

He called it dead. So Donaldson didm;t field it. If he called it live, Donaldson would have at least had a play.
