[HopeSpringsEternal]

Al Oliver, you’re on deck!

[zambonir]

And yet....

Brewers first in MLB to clinch playoff spot

Guess the Phillies might skip that part (I.e. the are going to clinch the East w/o first clinching a WC. Ideally).

[EDmuch]

This is just an incredible run. Can they keep it going?

[EastFallowfield]

Giants lose today, Phils lose tomorrow, Mets win tomorrow, Giants lose tomorrow is the only way I see how the Phils can get a wildcard berth ahead of the division.
