So if it comes down to a 1 game playoff, they will likely have to go with Stripling. They'd still be lined up fine for the NLDS.
    What I really want to see is the Rockies/Dodgers/Cards all tied at the end of the season. Therefore you get your 1 game playoff for the NL West. The loser plays the Cards to get the 2nd WC spot.

    That would be cool. How is homefield determined?

    I think those would be via coin flips but I'm not sure.

    I would be very interested to see what MLB would do in that scenario because there would be 3 games before the NLDS could begin, yet right now the WC game is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 2. and the NLDS begins Oct. 4.

    So would they push the WC game back to Oct. 3 to allow for games on the 1st and 2nd? Or would they try some kind of insane double-header? I have to imagine they would just push the WC game back.

    Plus, black actors need to be cast more, and if we remain intent on only casting lookalikes for non-fiction success stories, black actors will continue to be out of work.

    I wish I had unlimited cash for a number of reasons.

    One would be that the next time I hear hollywood say the term "whitewashing," I would green light a movie about the writing of the Constitution and establishment of the Government where all the characters are different races than they were in reality.

    You know: Washington, Franklin and Jefferson - black guys
    John Adams - Chinese
    John Hancock - Japanese (his signature would be a Kanji Haiku)
    John Jay - Arabic
    Alexander Hamilton - Undetermined
    Samuel Adams - Irish (oh, wait?)

    what's funny to me is when the suggestion of a black batman is brought up, v smart white people go "WELL WE'LL MAKE AN MLK MOVIE AND HAVE MLK be PLAYED BY A WHITE GUY!!!" as if that's like, similar at all.

    It's all comedy to me, especially the fact that so many can't see that there's money, influence and power to be gained by keeping racial tensions alive.

    So, like, a movie version of Hamilton.

    Rockies up 3-1 in the 6th. They would have a 1 game lead entering the weekend. Rockies play the Nats while the Dodgers play the Giants.

    I have a feeling LA will need to sweep.

    If Colorado holds on today I like their chances a lot better, partly because Bumgarner is going in game 1 vs the Dodgers and the Giants while terrible might be able to take one game. That might be enough.

    He came back to strikeout side to keep it 5-3, so 3 outs to go.
