It's not a loss so I say go for it.

[BigSlick]

First tie in 23 years- historic in its own right lol

[Buster]

Dumb. Now every time I see the standings I'm going to be annoyed at the tie rather than happy about the 100+ wins. Season ruined.

Throw in the tie finish and the ultimate meaninglessness and it sounds like spring training.

How many teams have won a World Series that tied a game during the regular season? I bet it's not a lot, we're doomed

on the flip side if our spring training lineups make it so we lose 2 of 3 in Cincinnati that tie helped us lose less than 60 games.
