Two MLB Division Tie Breaker Games Today
 
Cubs vs Brewers and Dodgers vs Rockies.

Two division ties probably doesn't happen too often, but that's a wild guess on my part (absent of all science).

My second favorite team in all of baseball is whoever is playing the Cubs.

Want to see a good contest in the other one. Don't know anything about either team.

I love post-season baseball, even if my team lost a hundred games and was out of contention months ago. (they did and were}

Looking forward to a two good ballgame warmup for a Denver Broncos ass whoopin' tonight.

Cubs just tied it up.

Boo.

Hoping my Astros get back to the WS and meet the Cubs. Would be cool to have the last two WS Champions play for this year's title.

GO STROS!

ESPN has the Cubs. Not advertised.

They would finally get a chance to beat a Chicago team in the World Series.

They were as surprised as anyone. Shocked. Stunned.

Very stunned.

Dinny

Why Not? 10-01-2018 12:34 PM

Brewers have the much better bullpen. If they can get a run or two here, it's very likely they win this game.

Most likely going to be disappointed.

Cubs will be on a stretch of 42 games in 43 days IF they manage to make it past the wildcard round.

The stats say they have one of the best bullpens in the NL but that's ignoring that their closer is now out for the season and their setup man is questionable to pitch again. Jesse Chavez is the only man remaining to be consistently good. Everyone else you either don't ever want to see in a close game or guys like Cichek who have been hit or miss with an emphasis on miss lately.

And I could be mistaken, but their offense doesn't rank top 10 in a single category for the 2nd half of the season.

I have little faith in this team making another deep run.

Don't feel so bad. The Dodgers aren't winning shit either.

This is what I'm thinking as well, Pest.

The Rockies may be a fine bunch of guys, but it goes against my natural born inability to root for any sports team from Denver.

ESPN couldnt be happier today, 2 163 games for Division titles and Monday Night Football! Just worked out perfect for them. The world can see Walker Buehler. Kids been really good all year. Hope he continues today!

Go Dodgers!

It appears those Brewers have those Cubs right where they want 'em.

Dinny

jd1020 10-01-2018 01:24 PM

This bullpen is just trash.

I'm so happy Maddon decided it was a good idea to let Strop hit in extra innings after pitching in 2 innings already.

Hope this team loses the wildcard game so I don't have to be invested in certain failure any more.

WhawhaWhat 10-01-2018 01:25 PM

Hoping for a Yelich bomb so he can get a triple crown in game 163.

Well - they got the chance in '05, but got swept... So, yes, they would get another chance to beat a Chicago team. But I really don't care about that, I'd just like for the last two WS Champions to play for the title this season. It just so happens that the Cubs won it the year before the Astros did, so I'm pulling for them to get there again and hope the Astros can make it as well.

Dinny Bossa Nova 10-01-2018 01:35 PM

Yay!

Woo!

I'm hoping that the baseball gods will smile upon the Rockies, who have never won the division, compared to the Dodgers, who have done it about every other year it seems.

The Brewers won 7 in a row to finish in a tie with the Cubs to finish the season.

The Cubs went 1-1 in their last 2.

There was also not even 24 hours between the time the game was scheduled and the time it started, so my guess is there wasn't time to get a ton of tickets sold for it.

As a fan of the Diamondbacks (what a great year until the last month!) I am on the Anyone but the Dodgers wagon. They have won the division 5 years in a row. Time for someone else to have a turn so I guess it has to be the Rockies at this point.

It's obviously easy to be magnanimous after the dust has settled, but I greatly appreciate the role the Dbacks had in making this game possible. :thumb:

Well, I was hopeful, but not optimistic. The Rockies have played well this year against everyone except the Dodgers. Oh well.

dude, Rockies and Brewers would be a hell of a match up - as a Braves fan I want NO part of Colorado. But I'll **** with the Dodgers all DDDAYYE!!

we went 2-5 against both - but took 2 of 3 in LA

Rockies-Cubs is headed to 13 innings at a 1-1 score. So much for getting sleep tonight.

DaFace 10-02-2018 11:11 PM

Rockies win! Time for bed.

CaliforniaChief 10-02-2018 11:17 PM

Great game. A lot less stressful when the Royals aren't in it, but I'd rather have the stress.

Terence Gore literally had one job...just stand there and don't swing.

Congrats DaFace!
