Only two games today, but once again my skills at prognostication are showing their flaws.
Today's Games:
Athletics: 8 Twins: 3 Well, at least I got one series right, though I was off by a game. As sorry as I am to see Oakland advance, I guess when you put two notorious chokers in a playoff series, one of them has to win. Which is why a lot of people were disappointed in 2003 when both the Chicago Cubs AND the Boston Red Sox were just a few outs away from heading to the World Series, only to have both of them blow it. I was of the opinion that said Series would have come down to the 9th inning of game 7, the score tied, and then the Rapture would happen and the world would end, as logic dictates that one of those teams would have HAD to win in, and God would not allow that. Of course, the Red Sox won it in 2004, which may mean that the world did indeed end and all the Bostonians went to heaven, while the rest of us are in purgatory (except Yankees fans, who, as is evident by recent post season success (or lack thereof), are obviously in hell.)
Tigers: 6 Yankees: 0 One game away from elimination, the greatest lineup I've ever seen has needed to talk to Bob, as they've been quite impotent these last two games. Here's the perfect time for A-Rod to be the hero and smack some sense into Yankees fans by having a great game tomorrow. If not, they've already got him fitted for a goat collar.
A-Rod Watch: 0-for-3. He's batting .091 for the series. I'll start getting the "Welcome to the Angels, A-Rod!" banner ready. Anybody want to help?
