Braves clinch the NL East for the 6th year in a row. Every year the Mets and Phillies gear up and are going to win it. Every year, the Braves win.
Won the series in Philly 3 games to 1 with a 4-1 win today on the back of a 2-run Riley homer, and 3 RBI, and 7 innings 9 K’s from Spencer Strider. Riley the 3rd Brave with 35+ homers, Ozuna hovering on 34 and Albies 29
Finally, Red Sox fire Bloom
Atlanta have celebrated clinching the NL East by losing 4 in a row, the last 3 11-5, 16-4 and 7-1. Admittedly only one of them has been with one of their top 4 pitchers starting.
But they’ll need to snap out of it to give them a good 10 game run in to postseason…and to make sure they don’t lose home field advantage. 4 games clear of the Dodgers.
Wainwright finally wins his 200th game, on his first try. But it took him three months to get 199.
About the only highlight in a pretty miserable year.
Giants absolutely crapped their daks down the stretch. are 5-25 in their last 30 away games. Wasted an amazing season from our ace, Logan Webb.
