Not looking too likely, with the Giants down 2-0... Can't play that game with the Reds though, what with being the first professional team and all... I'll stick with the Tigers as my AL pick - Yankees can only go so far this year... NL could be tough - rooting interest aside, I would have picked the veteran teams, Cards or Giants, to get to the world series, but if they lose - Reds and Nats look pretty well matched. Nats should have the edge, though, I would think. I'll have to dig out my Expos hat!weepingsamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11885871104310819374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349866.post-86056888902728873152012-10-07T21:29:05.368-04:002012-10-07T21:29:05.368-04:00Well my friend, as you already know Texas did not ...Well my friend, as you already know Texas did not take out Baltimore, and as a result the Orioles are playing my beloved Yankees in a best-of-five. After a three-hour rain delay the Yanks have an early 1-0 lead, but there's a long way to go! You look like a seer there with that Detroit Tigers prediction, as they now have a two-game lead over the upstart Oakland A's. I hated to see the Cards win over the Braves, and that tainted in-field fly call won't be forgotten. Like you I was no fan of La Russa, so I also don't hate the Cards, but would rather have seen them exit. I guess we'll have a real picture in a few days. But terrific round-up here!Sam Julianonoreply@blogger.com
