Nice, Texas advances to the ALCS.
Both the Diamondbacks and the Yankees stay alive.
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)As much as I wanted the Diamondbacks to loose, I must admit, the look on the Brewers' pitcher's face (can't remember his name at the moment) after giving up that grand slam was hilarious.

The Philosopher-King ParadoxPostseason baseball tends to produce some funny expressions, like the look on this catcher's face.◊ (Picture from the Phillies-Reds series in the 2010 postseason.)
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Cardinals still in it to win it, Game 5 incoming.
Also, awesome squirrel is awesome.

Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Same goes for the Diamondbacks.
Three full 5-game series already. Oh, this year is going to be good...
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Disregard this for now. Sports Illustrated likes screwing with my everyone's head.
To explain: they just posted saying the Tigers had advanced...and the 9th inning hadn't even started yet.

Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Okay, now I can say it.
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Hell yeah go Tigers!
Wouldn't it be wild if both the Tigers and Detroit Lions ended up winning their respected championships?
I would fall out of my chair in sheer shock.

If the Lions win the Superb Owl, the world actually ends. It was foretold by the Mayans
Well, there goes one half of my NLCS prediction.
Good job Brewers.
Edit: Wait a second, that's the 2nd Game 5 (meaning the series ended 3-2) that ended with a 3-2 score. I'm detecting a pattern here...

Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)And there goes the other half!
Quite the pitching duel there, but in the end, it came down to a first-inning phailure.
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)And the Cardinals beat out the Phillies. Which means, naturally, that the Brewers get home field advantage in the NLCS.

I feel bad for Halladay. On everything but the first two batters he faced, he was as good as ever.
Damn though, Carpenter threw a gem too.
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Jesus, I almost jinxed the Brewers earlier in the week. I think I'll keep my predictions to myself next time. :P
Sorry for the late update (I went to bed before it was over), but Rangers strike first.
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Also, no Rangers-Tigers game tonight.

Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)It's looking rough for the Tigers with Ordonez out for the rest of the post-season.
Do the words "walk-off grand slam" strike fear into your heart? If you're a Tigers fan, they will.
Expergiscēre cras, medior quam hodie. (Awaken tomorrow, better than today.)Now that's just rubbing salt in the wounds; a simple base hit would have done it just as well.

The Philosopher-King ParadoxBut why stop at a mere base hit? It's the 11th inning in the ALCS, you go big or go the fuck home.

This is why you do not mess with Pujols.
Tied series headed back to St. Louis.

Goodbye Rays, the Rangers are advancing.
