Does TBS even have a streaming app?

You're doing it wrong

I am already so fired up. Too bad I have to work between now and the game.

I have a feeling it's going to be a long, hard fought season between the Jays and O's this year. A little surprised there wasn't more scoring in this first series, but I'm sure it's coming.


:-)

Season series ended up being 10-9 in favor of the Jays. Gonna be 10-10 after tonight!  :samurai:


Seriously though....this season has been so much fun and I'll be really happy about it at some point regardless of what happens tonight.

I think the WC series should be a best of 3 with a double header on the first day.

It will be fun to watch tonight's game without any allegiance to one team.

The stress begins Friday, at least the Cubs won't have to face the other guys best pitcher till maybe game 3.

in some cases, that could make games 1 and 2 must wins as you'd be facing the other teams ace in a pivotal game 3 of a 5 game series.
however, the Cubs are just stacked in every aspect this year, including a deep rotation so it won't matter.

as a mets fan, it will be stressful, but you really can't ask for much more than a 1 game elimination game with bumgarner vs. syndergaard.

I would love this, actually. The fact that 162 comes down to 1 game is kinda crazy.

Not sure about the double header but it should definitely be best of 3. They start immediately by playing Monday and Tuesday, travel day if necessary on Wednesday and wrap it up Thursday.

One game to decide it after 162 games is a joke.

I agree on the best of 3 series.  the 1 game concept has always troubled me because one team could have won 5 games or so more than the other and it still comes down to 1 game.

The one great thing about this year is both WC meetings come down to teams with equal records.  In a way, it is like a true play in game for the 4th best record in each league.

I have been thinking about this ever since the Giants made the wildcard. Worst record second half of the year, barely manage to make the wildcard game. I hate even years.

Not following you.

I'll probably be at a bar though.


And absolutely agreed about best of three. Insofar as the new WC format is worse for the top WC team than the old format was, to punish them makes no sense to me.

Double Headers are awesome...

Another idea I have is that they have a "best of 3" but one of the games is pre-determined by head-to-head matchup.

So today the Jays would play the O's in the afternoon, and when they win the first game, they advance.  If by some miracle the O's could sweep a double header they would advance.
