Nice.

Cashed my Gerrit Cole strikeout leader, MLB ticket (at 4.5-1) for 180 profit.  Should keep me in bets through end of NFL.....

Have METS at 5-1 NL for (5-1) 200 bucks.  (Not feeling too confident at this point)

Go, Mets.  Go, Guardians.

Lots of upsets.

The end of that Phillies/Cardinals game was quite something.

Tomorrow is another day!

I still dislike different rules during the regular season versus during playoffs, for all that I despise the "ghost runner" rule.

I'm also not a fan of ESPN's two broadcasts going dead at the same time - 12 innings into the TB-Cleveland game.

And when it came back, no sound.

Cardinals gave it all they had, I guess.

But 0-7 with runners in scoring position is just not going to get it done. Neither is 2 on, 1 out, with your big bats up and both striking out in the 8th.

Congratulations to the Phillies for a well played short series.

And to the Padres and Mets, one more game to go!

It must suck to be a Blue Jay. What a way for a season to end.

I agree.

And the Cards can't be feeling much better, even if their big reversal of fortune came the day before.
