Ouch. Just goes to show winning most games in the league doesn't mean an easy playoff run! Will Cubs do better?
Been kinda trackin' that - and they did it with authority on the Rangers' turf!

You're right of course; heck the Cubs did it to the Cardinals last year, another injustice of the structure. Bottom-line: It's baseball, and anything can happen. We'll get an indication tonight.



Anybody hereabouts a Dodgers or Nationals fan...?

I confess to being a Dodgers fan maybe 55-56 years ago; went to see them (and the Cubs) once, playing in the old LA Coliseum before Walter O'Malley had completed the new stadium with (as my Dad put it) a dearth of water fountains "so you have to drink his over-priced beer." What a place that was... till they put a partial wall up it was like a pitching wedge or soft 9-iron to straight-away left for a right-handed batter.
