Nice, a 30-minute first inning. Going to take a long nap and catch up in the 3rd.

The Twins thing is unbelievable (I knew about their Yankees problem, but had no idea). That is exceptionally hard to do in baseball. Sooner or later, someone--especially on a playoff team (this isn't the '88 Orioles)--is going to throw a good game.

Huge blow for the Milwaukee Brewers: Rookie right-hander Devin Williams, the best reliever in baseball this year, has been left off the roster for their wild card series against the top-seeded Los Angeles Dodgers, sources tell ESPN.

brewers better pull this series out, i still think the sub-.500 astros winning the WS is the best and funniest possibility but along the way i need the sub-.500 smallest market team in the world to kill the dodgers in the first round

marlins over cubs too, obviously
if the brewers just have to lose then i need the astros to beat the yankees in the ALCS again and the dodgers in the WS again

― mookieproof, Thursday, 1 October 2020 22:17 (three years ago) link
I'd say the Reds hitting performance in this years playoffs is another fluky record, going 22 innings without scoring a run.
Of course, I would figure that this years Reds team batting average being something stupid like .214 is probably part of the problem.
This is the year of the most fugly pro baseball I can ever remember. Unwatchable.
