What kind of freaking box score is that? And with the Giants win this afternoon, they are now 3 games over the Padres going into this weekend’s 3 game series in San Francisco. So it’s pretty much a statistical nightmare right now. Follow along if you can.
For the Pads to play in the postseason, they have to steamroll the Giants to sweep the series and either win game 163 on Monday (clinch NL west) or lose and clinch the wild card, BUT the Braves (2 games up on SD for the wild card) would also have to roll over and play dead in their series against the Phillies for that last scenario to be possible. If somehow all three teams end up tied, the Padres and Giants would play Monday in SD for the division, then the other team would face the Braves Tuesday in Atlanta for the wild card. I’m all for optimism but those scenarios are more like pipe dreams. It’s 2007 all over again.
So who’s driving the Phillies band wagon? Might as well jump on now, if at least to pound the Braves this weekend and give the Padres a glimmer of hope!

You know- issues in the drivers seat, not the back seat!
I was strangling my steering wheel so hard coming home from work today, I figured I’d bent it. Are they still giving away drivers licenses in Cracker Jack boxes? I see way too many moronic moves on the road to feel safe behind the wheel. Here’s a little driving test- rate your ability on the road.
Give yourself 1 point if you answer yes to the following questions:

These classic hot rod guys sure know how to do it!
Powered by beer? Not quite.
It appears to be an overfill reservior for the radiator, and probably not filled with the light lager it advertises.
And no, when you’re done, peeing in the gas tank won’t get you home!
