    Also, I didn't realize that they changed the wild card format and expanded the playoffs for this year. Expanding it really helps the teams that didn't win their division and for a team like the M's that has been right on the cusp a few times in the past actually have a full series shot at advancing. I say that knowing I will be fucking livid when there are 4 AL East teams in the second round, if that's possible. Glad they are sticking to a more division based system still though, unlike the NBA which has almost abandoned theirs.

    MLB expanded playoffs, explained: How many teams will reach 2022 postseason, other essential information

    10 in a row with 4 games with Texas coming up before the all star break.

    My sister in law lives in Dallas and has tickets in a box to one of the games. I almost went but plane tickets were too much for a weekend trip.

    This thread should be moved to the main forum marked OT. Seattle Mariners are HOT!

    That dude is about as much of a phenom as I’ve ever seen. Don’t even think Arod or Jose Cruz Jr. we’re doing the shit he is

    Mariners just won in the 13th off a ribbie by JP Crawford.

    13th straight.

    I think they got 15 straight in 2001.

    unreal run they’re going on right now

    They are really exciting this year. Hopefully they go into the all star break with a 14 game win streak.

    Going 21-4 in your last 25 is alright too lol



    Winning tomorrow would be amazing but had we lost today and tomorrow that would have sucked. Losing tomorrow is like placing a $5 bet after you already won $5k.

    But don't get it twisted, I want the win bad tomorrow. The start of the 2nd half is brutal

    Hopefully we can keep momentum through the break. I have tickets to a couple games in August and I want them firing on all these cylinders.

    14 in a row.

    Longest winning streak ever going into the all star break.

    Ty France is an all star. He should have been when the reserves were revealed.

    Julio Rodriguez just belted 25 home runs in his first ever round of the home run derby. Oh, wait, there's bonus time. Another minute? Cool. Let's make that 32.

    Kid is incredible.
