MLB Wild Card: Yanks tie up series with Red Sox! Guardians rally late! Padres blank Cubs!

Today’s word of the day is ‘statistics’ as in numbers as in facts as in predictions as in MLB as in baseball as in Wild Card. Let’s take a look at where these series stand. Three elimination games. The Dodgers swept the Reds. Baseball! We start with the Yankees and Red Sox. The Yankees took Game 2, but the biggest play happened when the 3rd base coach for the Red Sox held up a runner when he had a very easy chance to score. Why? The Guardians tied up the series with the Tigers. Another elimination game tonight! The Padres bullpen was lights out. Mason Miller… wow! 104.5 mph! Another elimination game! The Dodgers swept the Reds. This series could have been an email. Review: Boyhood. NPPOD. Brian Snitker stepped down as manager of the Braves. His contract was up and he decided it’s time. Now what for the Braves? A terrible season, but a great roster.
The Cleveland Browns are going with Dillon Garbiel in London! Not Shedeur Sanders. Not Joe Flacco. So much noise around this team. It’s ridiculous! It is always a mess with this team! The Colorado Rockies have fired its GM. One of the worst seasons of all time. Bill Schmidt has been there since 1999, GM since 2021. Three straight 100-game losing seasons. 119 losses this year. Terrible farm system. Bruce Bochy will not be the Giants manger. Not happening said Buster Posey. What is going on with the Cardinals? What happened to the winning? Chaim Bloom is trying to change it. Electronic Arts is being acquired for $55 billion… by the Saudi Public Investment Fund. Excuse me? The Big Ten is about to get into bed with private equity. A $2 billion plan? What does that mean for the future of that conference?
