Meanwhile the Giants are bending over like a bunch of Castro district whores to the Dodgers. 

Same thing the Nats are doing for the Rockies... Seems like this wild card business is leading to everyone taking off game 162.

The only plus that can come from today's game, is if the Phillies win and we lose we get 1 pick earlier in next years draft.

All Jed needs is an RBI and he can sit the rest of the game. 

Well, he's now 0-for-3. A sac fly or a fielder's choice can get him to 100 RBI. Then he'll take a seat until Wednesday.(?)

Manager Alfredo Griffin strategized Jefry Marte to a 2-0 Angels lead that Alfredo promptly re-strategized into a tie game at 2-2.

Now, Angels Manager Josh Paul has taken that 2-2 tie and strategized it into a 4-2 Oakland lead.

[eligrba4ever]

Nine Angels have struck out as of the sixth inning.

Khris Davis goes 0-2 and finishes the regular season at .247. Just like he did in 2017. And 2016. And 2015. 

This has got to be some kind of obscure, Elias Sports Bureau record for a full-time player. Four straight years, hitting for the same average.

ESPN talked about this earlier in the week, and the exact number of hits and ABs that he would need in this series to finish at .247.

Did they mention that it would be a record of sorts? I'm curious.

[Vegas Halo Fan]

They only mentioned it as a curiosity. I don't know if any research has been done on it.

I don't know if that's an actual category for a record in an actual record book, but it has been widely discussed as a unique statistical oddity.

Some clowns were chanting MVP for Khris Davis the other night.  They were also overheard discussing why they think the earth is flat.

[eligrba4ever]

The Dodgers have been keeping the swimmers busy in McCovey Cove.

F u ck the Dodgers

And we thank -- is THAT the word? -- Alfredo and Josh for their managing innings 1 through 6.

[eligrba4ever]

Broken ball bouncer? Oh, Terry. You so funny!!!

[Lhalo]

I’m hearing Scioscia is getting the postgame interview. 

[eligrba4ever]

Woo Hoo!!! Parker Bridwell. Long time, no see. 

Meanwhile, Barnes gave the Dogs another homer and it's 15-0 at AT&T.

Season over

Three more outs. Let's not jump the gun.

I guess the press conference is after the game.    

[eligrba4ever]

Ohtani singles one last time.
