    My first loss at the ballpark this year.

    Gray threw a great game.
    So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

        I cannot account for the Mariners winning the series. It certainly is not because they are the better team and it wasn't because of Grace's righteousness. I guess it had to just be luck.

          Here this one is easy. Felix and Kuma. When they go 1 and 2 we have a shot to win a series against anybody. After that it gets a little more dicey, though Young has definitely been a huge surprise.

            Can't wait for the Derek Jeter retirement tour to end.

                Angels need to stop winning games. Pretty frustrating that the 2 best teams in baseball are in the same division and that one of them is going to end up in a 1-game playoff.

                  Well Rodney blew it yesterday. M's should have taken 2 of 3, but he melted down yesterday. They asked him to enter in the 8th because they'd used so many arms in games 1 and 2 and he couldn't deliver on the extended outing. Could have won on Friday night as well, but didn't go their way. I thought Miller had the game winning hit in the 12th only to have the ball luckily plucked out of the air by the pitcher. Damn pitcher didn't even see the thing, just threw his glove up.

                    Let's not ignore that the Mariners are a very good team this year as well. 3 best run differentials in the AL are in the AL West. Mariners currently 1.5 games ahead of the Yankees and Toronto for the WC. Any other division in MLB and they would be challenging for the division title, not 9 games back.

                    The AL West is murder this year.

                      3 best run differentials are in the AL West proves that run differential is a really dumb stat. Especially when half of your game are played in the division.

                      I can't wait for the A's to be awarded the championship trophy after leading the league in run differential!

                        Perhaps a parade would be appropriate.

                          Leading the league in run differential is mostly luck, anyway.

                            Awarding a championship based on run differential would result in the best team being awarded the championship more often than the current system. Of course, I support the current system as, while the playoffs are mostly luck, it is a much more entertaining way to award the championship than giving it to the best team.

                            There is not a better way to evaluate the best team than run differential.

                              To clarify, run differential is the best single measure, but it certainly makes sense to look at more than just run differential.
