Ok, down to 37 left [19 A/18 H] and sitting at 77-48. IF the Cubs play to their current winning pct.s in both areas [.500 A/.730 H] the rest of the way, they'll finish either 99-63 or 100-62. Even if you scale it back a couple games (1 or 2 more losses at home and 2 or 3 more on the road), they'll still finish with at least 94/95. To finish at 98-64, the Cubs have to finish the season going 22-15. Seeing as how they have 5 more games at home vs the Reds & Nationals this week and a 3-game set in Pittsburgh to start next week, an 8-0/7-1/6-2 start on that isn't that far out of the question. In fact, (including the just started set vs the Reds) 5 of our next 6 series are all very winnable, and the 4-gamer vs Philly is in Wrigley; [3 (now 2) vs Reds, 3 vs Nats, 3 @ Pitt, 4 vs Phils, 3 vs HOU, 3 @ Reds]. Even if we just win the series (split vs Philly), that'll put us at 12-7 over that stretch and 89-55. A .500 finish to the rest of the schedule [9-9] would get us to 98 wins. At 98-64, Milwaukee would have to go 27-8 and StL would have to go 29-5 to keep us out of the playoffs. Still doing my best to not look ahead and start counting chickens, but man oh man is getting harder and harder to keep from thinking we're at least assured a clinch of the wild card spot.

Well hello there Mr 6.0 Games. You're looking in fine form! Hey 8.5, I see you over there! And look who's back, its (tied for) Best Record in the Majors. Been a little while, but glad to see you again! :yahoo:

There's always TBS I'm in the Brewers' DMA unfortunately, so I am blacked out on TBS.
-
Do the Dodgers NOT want to go to the playoffs this year?? That's twice in 2 games when they made just horrible baserunning gaffes!
-
Listening to these FSN Wisconsin guys is absolutely brutal! Wish they could see me if I were to do this :-$ at them.

And as soon as you say that, Cameron goes long. 3-1 LAD, t4

75 wins in the NL, and we only have a 4.5 game lead. I hate this. We'd have an 8-game bulge in the East and a commanding 10-game lead in the West. Its nice to be in the dominant divsion in the league, but also a bit unfair (while wearing the Cubbie blue shades). Of course, not quite as unfair as its going to be for either the Cards or Brewers to be the 3rd best team in the NL, but be left at home due to how the playoffs/seedings are set up.

That's all on you, Matt Kemp and 1st base coach. All on yous.
-
Kent missed a HR by inches to dead center. Cameron went back and leaped, but misplayed it, so it dropped in. But Kemp went back to 1st to tag, thinking it was gonna get caught easily. [-(
-
And Kemp costs his team a run and probly the game now. CMON, be Manny, Manny!!
-
Even if, IF, Cameron makes that catch... Kemp should have been one step away from 2nd, cause that would have been one hell of a throw to nail him back at 1st. What an IDIOT!!!! :banghead:
-
WHAT?!?!! EFF YOU, KEMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These two teams are playing the wrong game....... between Fielder, Sabathia, Gagne, Broxton, and Martin; these two squads could have one hell of a hot dog and pie eating contest!!
-
Typical. Oh well, left themselves life to win it in extras.
-
Where are those missing!? Lord. I love it, since I am rooting against the Brews, but geez.
-
Goodness, and I thought our homeplate ump tonight was ridiculous.
-
Wow. Last 2 pitches were very borderline... thanx ump!
-
GW hit coming up, calling it. DO IT, Dodgers!! :beg:
-
That great Brewers D shows itself again. Big hole ya got in your glove there, Hardy! You so better them pay here, Manny and Dodgers! Manny ties it up at the very least (will force extras) 1 down, 3-all

What is the deal with Demp's eyes in that pic, the flash of the camera shining off the irises? Cool effect.
