I was looking at the schedule and thought it was really weird we end the season with 6 games against the national league. That's just...wrong.

Today's win was announced to me by a Braves fan in the hall at work.  A good dude who played backup to the backup on the Georgia Tech FB team back in the day.   I needed this one.  Walkoff losses will shatter your confidence.

I was listening to this game driving up to the mountains in Central Idaho for the day and just when the Tigers had a 3–2 lead in the eighth I thought OMG they’ll bring Kenley out!

Then I drove into a kind of ravine where there was no cell phone signal, and when the signal finally came back, it was the last pitch for Finnegan. So I missed two runs being scored in the top of the ninth and all of Finnegan but for the last pitch, and the joy of no Kenley, but dammit it was sweet.

It’s almost as if a robot that doesn’t give a damn about the excitement of divisional races created the schedule. Almost…
