Potentially the most unpredictable Playoffs ever

Rangers up 2-0 and going home for the next 3 games. Doesn't look good for Houston.

Anyone who thinks the first inning doesn't matter as much as the ninth (all those closer discussions), see today's game.

Just like wins in April count the same as wins in September, runs in the first count as much as runs in the ninth. Sometimes it seems like early runs can count for more if you put a team into an early hole that makes them get into their bullpen early or start pressing at the plate to try to get back into the game quickly.

Dodgers would have been better off starting their Closer instead of Kershaw and Miller:

Phillies looking STRONG!!

If.....and a big IF right now but if the Phiiles and Rangers both sweep, they both go into the World Series:

Phillies 9-1
Rangers 9-0

that's a combined 18-1

in the Playoffs, that would be pretty cool.

You could do worse than have Scherzer starting for you at home. But baseball being baseball, he'll probably get shelled early.
